untill the game starts

Strong lineup, slightly more attacking than at the weekend with Adebayor instead of Shauny.

 

[Blue Haze]

Hart, Zabaleta, K Toure, Kompany, Lescott - De Jong, Y Toure, G Barry - C Tevez, E Adebayor, D Silva

Confirmed? No Mario? :(

 

[BillyTownsend]

I'd go for:

...................Given...................
Richards.....Touré....Lescott.....Barry

.......Yaya T....Milner/de Jong.......
A Johnson...Robinho....Balotelli/SWP

................Adebayor................

Boateng, Kolarov, Bridge all out, Balotelli should make his debut but admitedly there's little hope of Milner making his.

With that midfeild we should be able to cover Robbies defensive frailties via Yaya and Milner/de Jong, as well as covering him going forward if he has a quiet day, as everyong in that midfeild can get forward with the exeption of de Jong.

3-1 City.

Milner isn't in the squad mate...

Barry, YA YA & De Jong all starting again is poor in my opinion. Wheres AJ he has been our best player in pre season

AJ has nothing to do with them, they don't play on the same positions.

The diamond formation in midfield then. Should be interesting because it worked well in the Valencia friendly and at times will be Tevez dropping deep beyond Silva and interchanging with him. I'm looking forward to it. To the poster saying it is a piss poor decision, give your head a wobble pal.

is mario on the bench?

 

[bluethai]

Very good line up!

 

[LoveCity]

Subs: Shay, Micah, SWP, A Johnson, Mario Balotelli, Vieira, Jo

Very attacking bench. :O
