No, I didn’t. But to hear Rodders played well in a friendly doesn’t surprise me, that’s the pac he’s suited to

Either way. One or the other, I’m not too fussed which one - my general point being that we need players that are proactive and can run(quickly)

By the way, I totally agree with the rest of your team ;)

Fair enough! Happy to concede I got that wrong.

No need, it’s what the media feed people so why think anything other.

The area we are lacking is actually in attack, for obvious reasons. This season we’ve scored 17 over that 9 game period whereas we had 30 the season before.

I’m going 1-0 Saturday, Torres with the goal. Close result but a comfortable win.

Not sure if that will be the starting 11, but that is the team I would go with. Even if Sterling is fit I would put him on the subs bench as his form is not the best at the moment.

Interesting take regarding our defence. Since the 5-2 against Leicester we’ve played 9 games and only conceded 4 goals, only 1 goal in the last 4 which, for me, was never a penalty.

Neither were all 3 Leicester pens, Initiated contact/dives have cost us in 2 home games,4 points and 4 Goals against.

Anyone that writes City off in this match is deluding themselves.

Could be a fairly high scoring game. Both teams have better attacks than defence.

Got a feeling we (Spurs) will nick it but my predictions are generally terrible.

Our defence is the only area of our team that is inspiring confidence this season, so you can’t have watched us recently. We create very little. And what little we do create, we tend to spurn. I see a low-scoring game personally. We haven’t scored more than 1 goal in a league game since September.

Agree to the second part of this as rodri needs help but please dont say hes a flat track bully.The guy oozes class put a engine type player young fern next to him and midfield is set for years.

100 times this. Even looking at that side excites me.

Need to kick on now and go on a winning run. Spurs away last season was absolutely ridiculous and summed up City over the past season and a bit. Battered them most game, daft goals conceded and just a feeling of we should be doing better.
