That reminds me not to watch the build up on sunday,i'd rather watch the rags gameWow the press, pundit and sports presenter brigade are GAGGING for City to lose this one. Very very few - if any - going for a City win. Did they not see how lucky Celtic were....
That takes the pressure off us a bit though in truth, it's a game we can afford to lose in many ways... it's not going to be a shock if we lose or that they can make much of(even though they will probably still claim it's a big shock front page news), we'll still be top of the table and it's not a place where many teams will bag points this season either.Wow the press, pundit and sports presenter brigade are GAGGING for City to lose this one.

9 chanes with 3 on target to City's 20 chances with 9 on target...
I completely agree. I actually feel very relaxed going into this game because I think we can afford to lose. That makes Everton H an important game but we can deal with that when it comes. I think that lack of 'must win' pressure, and the removal of the "Can City break the record vs Spurs" means that we'll play very well. I do think they'll press high, but I think we'll be expecting it and the midfield movement behind that press will exploit that space. It could go either way, but I'm quietly confident we'll come away with a point, minimum.That takes the pressure off us a bit though in truth, it's a game we can afford to lose in many ways... it's not going to be a shock if we lose or that they can make much of(even though they will probably still claim it's a big shock front page news), we'll still be top of the table and it's not a place where many teams with bag points this season either.
Forgot to mention the ref at first that's the main worry and we need to start being more vocal at refs as fans since the players can't as much anymore, that's the one thing we can't control but they should hear it big time if they're screwing us over(I'm still mad about last season regarding the Spurs games personally and it's not often I remember games in this way). We are too passive as fans imo at City, the way people reacted to Agueros elbow made a shit storm and they got what they wanted... when have we ever been heard like that?I completely agree.

not overly dissimilar to the build up to the game at the swamp.Wow the press, pundit and sports presenter brigade are GAGGING for City to lose this one. Very very few - if any - going for a City win.
