City line-up v Portsmouth

[Mark Garrett]

I'd go for:

------------------------Given

Richards---------Toure---Kompany-----Garrido

Ireland-----------De Jong---Barry--------Petrov

----------------Adebayor------Tevez

Subs:

Taylor, Onouha, Zabaleta, SWP, Bellamy, Sylvinho, Boyata

[MaineRoadMemories]

I'd play HM Customs and Excise up front for us. They wouldn't stand a chance

[Somerset Blue]

With all that's going on at Pompey, I can't decide whether their players will be half-arsed or really going for it with a point to prove.

Either way, we need to bounce back straight away - with this game, then away at Hull, home to Bolton and away at Stoke (plus the FA Cup game), we can really make some progress and put a run together. Because after that it's Liverpool, Chelski and Spuds.

In terms of their motivation. They keep not being paid, no light at the end of a shitty tunnel, no new teammates and all have threat of being sold over their heads and the manager and chairman might be off.

Now i don't know about you but that wouldn't get me very up for it.

Agree with this line-up but hopefully Bridge is on the bench. Bellers may be benched in favour of Petrov depending on the knees. SWP needs to show Mancini what he can do he hasn't performed under the new boss yet. Toure stright into CB, lets hope Richards form can continue.
