The Spuds are another team who specifically lift their game when they play us , very much like Everton do. Their fans hate us from what I can gather and with it being their first home game of the season , they will be loud and very much behind their team. I remember last year , we were the spuds first home game and their fans were extremely loud and it seemed to encourage them to keep up the pressure. We need to go there and play our game , last year at their place our players came back from the world cup and were fookin knackered , and we couldn't mount a serious attack on them. But this time , we are fit , we are ready and in fine form. I would take a draw there , last year none of the top 4 went there and won , so a draw is a good result . However , we are capable of going there and turning them over , we have the players and the ability to do so.

Richards--Vinnie K--Lescott----Clichy
---------------Barry--------------
--------Milner--------Yaya--------
---------------Silva---------------
----------Aguero--Dzeko-----------
Those are the players I expect him to pick , but whether that is the formation or not I don't know. Last week , there were points where I couldn't tell what our formation was , everyone was all over the pitch, drifting. With that team and the fire power we have on the bench , we can win the game . It will be hard , possibly one of the hardest games of the year , but in our form , I am looking forward to it.
2-1 City , Dzeko to get both goals and carry on his fine form . CTID
