Never an easy place to go, and there is quite a bit of needle with Pulis at the moment.

I would love us to win and have a good cup run, but its not the be all and end all of the season.

Prepare for long grass, divots, towels and rugby tackles!

It's live on ITV 12:45 KO, so best mute the commentary then ;-)

It don't matter where your from its where your at
In the words of a famous manchester layabout
Mr f Gallagher (shameless) bring on the stokies
Their nuffin mate piece of piss u,ll see 5-1 I hope
Urs the eternal optimist bill.

Stoke is on a bad run at the moment and although Stoke away is a difficult place to visit I go for: Stoke 0-2 City

Do you want us to go out of the FA Cup? Boyata against Stoke after flopping in Holland? Rekik at right-back where he's never played? Stoke's long balls and thugball would kill that defence.

I would be really worried if you were the manager of Manchester City.That team would get beat 3-0 by Stoke.

Because I prefer to keep the player fresh and ready for the QPR game, and IMO this team is good enough to beat Stoke.


And I agree with you regarding Rekik and Boyata, but who else can take their places apart from those who are starting EVERY WEEK?
