Sunday

[Vienna_70]

Does anyone else agree that Brum will be hugely disrupted by having to change their 'keeper on Sunday?

Their defence / side has been so settled this season (11 games unchanged?) that it must be quite disconserting for them having to change it.

no taylor aint a bad keeper plus it didnt bother them when we playyed them away

obviously it's been well documentated that Joe Hart has been a big savour for birmingham this season, i don't think it will affect the team in confidence, i just think we have a better chance of scoring,

at times this season Joe has looked unbeatable, if he had a back 4 like Chelsea infront of him i don't think he would of hardly conceeded this season, brums back 4 is good but Hart has been just as important.

hope so, kinda have a feeling we're on the start of a run at the moment.

Taylor is a good keeper, with a massive point to prove as well, im expecting a tough game on Sunday, a game where maybe alot of patience is required. I'll be deighted to be proven wrong of coarse.

Sunday will be tough IMO. To describe Birmingham as the usual promoted surprise package is to take them all too lightly. World beaters they aren't, but they ain't Burnley either and McCleish has got himself a good side together.

Amd they are very defensive. Give you nothing. Will be another Everton / Wolves game where we may struggle. Getting our noses in front will be all important

If we get an early goal then things will be ok imo.
They'll have to open up and then we'll hit them on the break, will be tough if we don't get that early goal though as they can be tough to breakdown and will look at a draw as a terrific result.

He'll be training with them all week. Won't be a problem as far as they're concerned I'm sure. And Maik Taylor will be anxious to impress I'm sure...

Have been looking at Brum recently, they have a good strong pair of central defenders so Ade and Tevez will have to put in a good shift, their full backs are not so strong so the way in for us could be on the wings, Bellamy and Johnson can be the key to getting us the result we need.
Their midfield and attack are a bit limited so a chance we can keep a clean sheet. I am going for a 2-0 win with an outside chance it can be 0-0 if we try to play cautiously and leave it too late in the game to go for the win

And we couldn't beat Burnley at home lol. A Bogey side, which will be a very tough game. Settle now for a 1-0 win, 3 points is all that matters at this stage of the season.

 

[mancyman]

quite. i want a scrappy 1-0 win. save any goals for the week after. this will be probably be a tough one. they are hard to break down. bit like a poor mans everton really. i am really worried yet again about this match. oh fuck it lets win 6-1 again. no seriously i am worried sick. i want to believe but at my age i have almost given up on success. watching city for 50 years can be bad for your health and i can't live forever.

 

[pezlington]

wont be too much of a problem - it wasnt when we played them last. if i remember rightly they actually scored first?

 

[MCFC-alan88]

Phillips is getting on but he still makes me panic when he plays.

....is a church day

 

[Fanzone Danny]

I'm confident we'll beat Brum particularly with Hart not playing!

A low in confidence Dippers team created a host of chances against them on Sunday and can't see why we can't do the same and with our confidence and fire power will convert more than they did!

 

[Dicky99]

I think it will be a very tough game, they are hard to break down but i think we should win. I'll take any kind of win me, scrappy 1-0 dull affair would not bother me in the slghtest as a win would be huge for us and would really apply pressure to the chasers. I hope to god we do win and dont decide to be typical City and 'do things the hard way'!
