*****Official Manchester City v Stoke City PREVIEW*****

[Goataldo]

can't believe slim hasn't noticed the * issue here...

away game?

bloody great read though, well in.

One of which he was motm?

Correct. The opening game vs. SH this season, the Chelsea game and Tottenham game last season are the only Nasri performances that have impressed me since joining City. And 3 good performances do not convince me that he is playing well enough to play week in and week out. This week is one of those instances where id like to see him on the bench, but it probably wont happen.

Finally, real football is back! I hate the int'l breaks. Can't wait to see what type of formation and squad Bobby puts out. I hope we win this game by a comfortable margin, don't want to be watching it with my heart in my mouth.

It's on HERE

I know I may be biased but I honestly think the previews provided by our members shit all over those of the professional journalists.

I agree. An excellent read and thank you very much Bobby.

Thanks for all the positive words. I really enjoyed writing it, I was just hoping that it didn't come out too negative.

As for the game I suppose it's only our final league position that will tell us how good a point this is!
