Tough lead up's to the Arsenal & the Derby?

OK it is potentially tricky but would you rather have Spurs and United before Arsenal?

It's not bad....

Obviously that would be even worse but it doesn't mean this won't be bad. The rag game will be our 3rd in 6 days, the previous 2 both being away, 1 of them in Poland.

It's not good...

Umm to be honest mate may I ask you what is an easy lead-up to the Arsenal fixture then?
 
Don't see the problem really, we knew getting into Europa League/Champions League would bring this amount of games, we have to be ready for them and this is where the rotation policy will come into play. Also, Arsenal should be playing midweek before our game and United are in the same situation with maybe 2 extra days rest. At the end of the day, footballers are paid to do a job, they're fit enough to do it so we should be able to do it :)

who are the shit and arse playing in Europe before us?

Tuesday, 2 November 2010 UCL Bursaspor (Turkey) Away
Saturday, 6 November 2010 PL Wolves (10 changes?) Home
Wednesday, 10 November 2010 PL City
"Will there be a time when City are favourites going into the derby"
"Not in my lifetime"
So, expect this to be re-arranged for the funeral.
Crematorium getting extra insulation for the whisky soaked one?


Saturday, 16 October 2010 PL Arse v Brum
Tuesday, 19 October 2010 UCL Shakhtar Donetsk Home
Sunday, 24 October 2010 PL City at COMS
2 home games and an extra couple of days
Maybe Ade coming into some kind of form and a point to prove
 
Finally we have more rest than our opponent. Im really looking forward to the City game. Cesc is back 100%, more than likely Vermaleen, Van Persie and Walcott are back as well. We will have the cutting edge we missed against Chelsea. Lets hope Mancini bench Johnson as he's more than likely to give Clichy nightmare.
 
good job for once we have a squad full of quality. imo team for blackpool:

.........................................hart
.....boateng............toure......................komapany.......lescott
.......................................ndj............................................
.........................yaya......................milner..........................
..............aj.........................tevez.....................silva.............

play a counter attacking style, with blackpools gung ho football should put a couple past them

team for poznan:

..........................................given
..........boyata.............toure................komapany.........zaba (should be fit?)
.................................vieira.......barry.................................
............swp....................................................milner
...............................ade..............jo..................................
not to sure how poznan play, but seeing as theyve put 3 against juve and saw off salzburg comfortably, we must show them respect, but balance that with having to keep players fit

Tell that to Newcastle and Dipper fans.
If we go with that attitude we'll fuck it up
i know what you mean but we could have harder games in the run up to the arse game. the united game has a much harder run in and i hope manini plays a weakened team away in poland!

Is this a new kind of panini?
 
No not tough for us.....tough for them (and they know it!)

Used to dread a hard run, now I look forward to it.
