Spurs Vs City pre match thread.

[MihaiCity]

Y Toure trots around a bit, falls over, engineering a move to inter no return date
S Nasri toys out of pram, fallen out with someone, engineering a move to blackpool, no return date
G Clichy can't decide on his preferred hairstyle, no return date
V Kompany involved with manager's wife in some way, engineering a move to diplomatic corps, 10th May 15


Not looking good injury wise

LOL hahahahahahahah!!!!

Using this Spurs thread: where are Blues drinking on Sunday? Heard Watford used sometimes?

Sergio is spurs nightmare with 9 goals in 6 games...ok 7 of them was at home BUT in both games we play at the lane and he score we won with the same score 5-1...i hope for a repeat of that...the way we play atm were miles away from it but you never know which City will turn up

 

[Sergi0 Na5r1]

3-1 City

There's only one City team that has been turning up since January and its certainly not a 5-1 away win team.
Might as well go 442 for this one and just see if we can score more goals than they can.

I get the impression that they've turned up for about two games this season.

But apart from losing to Villa, their home form since the end of November has been good.

I don't know how the players feel but I have big holes where my confidence used to be. We got over the 'totally out of form' bit and looked sharper on the ball, good tempo - but that's just exposed the problems in defence.

Would take a draw, no questions.

This isn't going to be a pretty performance but we will win.

 

[Manc Born & Bred]

Anyone willing to swap an upper tier for a lower tier ticket plus the £6 difference so all my family can sit together??

 

[J_Bow]

Yaya's missing so he better not go with Fernandinho and Fernando as a pair. Serg loves this fixture, hoping he can reproduce.

Any news on Clichy returning?

If anything I hope he does lol. Dinho should play week in week out imo and Fernando I feel sorry for him because he plays in a 442 formation with yaya meaning he's always going to get exposed and this obviously makes him look shit. Hopefully we play 4231 nando and Dinho holding, milner Navas and silva attacking mid.

Don't know if we'll win though, we have battered them recently which is a plus and hopefully we batter them on Sunday.

Fernando has looked best behind a two, not quick enough or good enough in possession to be in a pairing.

Hart

Zab
Demi
Mangala
Kolarov *sigh*

Fernandinho
Fernando

Navas
Silva
Milner

Aguero


Not even gonna start to predict the score

Like the look of that team would prefer clichy to kolarov! Grafters right across the middle with the magic in the front 2! Think navas could have a lot of joy with zabba down our right hand side! But got a bad feeling pellers could go with

hart

zabba
demi
mangala
kolarov

nando
lampard
navas
silva

aguero
bony

 

[Marvin]

No Lampard please

---------------------Hart
Zab-------MDM----Mangala---Kolarov
----------Fernando--Fernandinho
-------Milner-------Silva-----Aguero
---------------------Bony

Navas on after an hour against tiring legs

Without Yaya we should be better defensively. Hopefully our ball possession will be better than against Villa when we continually gave it away. Our passing was abysmal that day and probably helped Villa control possession.

if we can get 3 wins on the trot that should raise the teams confidence and give us a good run into the end of the season

 

[Manchester_lalala]

I'd settle for a draw. Keeps us above United if they win there game.

 

[kaz7]

Can't say i am very confident
Just don't get beat and anything else will be a bonus

 

[JustAnotherCityFan]

With Bony fit and Yaya out I have no doubt we'll play 442 with the two ferns in midfield. Going to be end to end this one with both teams defensively frail. Reading a spurs forum apparently they have no fit fullbacks so we should be able to take advantage.

3-1 City.

Me too mate as it gets a tough away game fone without defeat. A sneaky win would be lovely though! ;-)

The Physio room has him down as having a hamstring injury and a return date of 3rd May so they may risk him.

 

[eversince 76]

No matter who will start and whatever the formation, I'm afraid the match will turn out to be an exact copy of the one we played at Spurs two years ago. Same circumstances, about the same time , and we will probably score first as well. I hope they make me eat my words ...
