Sunderland V Man City Barclays Premierleague Cup thread.

[Blueband Brother]

I feel that i have to mention someone that everybody seems to be forgetting. Someone that has been our leader and star performer since May, someone that not only should be one of the first names in the team tomorrow but I believe has also played his way into starting berth contention when the new season begins regardless of the other players available for selection.

That someone is James Milner

Not only is it fair and just to include him, I forecast that this guy is finally getting into his own and about to enter his peak and can be one of the players of next season- I kid you not. He may not be a flair player but he definitely has the quality with his passing, crossing as well and the intangible and invaluable versatility, work rate and professionalism.

Surely there is a way to squeeze Milner in there.

I agree entirely.

If we win tomorrow will it count as City's "5 trophies in 5 year" plan? #CTID #COYB

No, its simply a pre-season training match.

Next you'll be saying the Thomas cook trophy was "just a friendly"

Manchester City take on Sunderland in the Barclays Asia Trophy on Saturday, this should give both sides the opportunity to look at their new signings and any potential youngsters for the upcoming season.

Milner is average.

Do we know if the final is going ahead yet?. All the papers saying it's very
unlikely.
