Javi starting away at Stoke? Jesus, how many times do you think the commentators will be able to fit in 'WELCOME TO THE PREMIER LEAGUE!! LOL!!' every time he's tackled?

I'm starting to feel a little about Stoke away like Liverpool away, a bit over it before it's begun. I'm not sure what happens, stars aligning, mild food poisoning, hang overs or what. We always make it far more difficult than the quality of our team should allow. Or just conceded once in a lifetime goals like bloody Peter 'Maradona for a second against City' Crouch.

1-1 every fucking time. I hate playing at the Britannia.

-------Dzeko----
Sinclair-Nasri--Milner
---Rodwell--Yaya--
Kol--Komp--Lesc--Zaba
---------Hart-----------
Bench; Pantilimon, Clichy, Razak, Tevez, Balotelli, Silva and Garcia.

I think for the Real game we need to rest many of our key players.

Tevez will start

He probably will but I don't think he should. Rather rest him and have him fully fit for Tuesday.

Just don't lose.

This game has a draw written all over it, I'd actually be happy with a point away to Stoke it's a tough place to go. I reckon 1-1.

Interesting stat from the Beeb:

Yaya Toure has averaged 99 passes per game so far this season - a league high. No single Stoke player has yet to make 99 passes in total.

Come on City - love to dominate them and come away with two clear goals.
