where's the fuclin lineup? being in the US i hate these late starts on the weekend.

im 50/50 on getting dragged out of the house with the wife and kids. should i feign illness? i could get a horrible sudden case of the runs? i'd pretty much guarantee not getting laid for a few days out of spite for making her stay home all day.

advice?

cheers

Hart, Zabaleta, Richards, Kolo Toure, Clichy, Barry, Yaya Toure, Silva, Nasri, Balotelli, Dzeko

Curious why no Milner, but other than that - very attacking and strong lineup. Predicting a balotelli hat trick

COME ON CITY!!!

Surprised that Aguero isn't in the starting XI, has he picked up a knock?

Interesting indeed. I see no reason to rest him whatsoever. I guess its just a knock.

i think it's "tactical."

Balo to get sent off 30 mins in after a couple elbows to the head not called, and we lose 1-0 to a Delap throw in which goes straight into goal in injury time.

sorry, someone had to say it.

cheers

We will be attackingly numb for 65 minutes, 1-0 down, Aguero will score and finish 1-1

We will be 4-0 up at halftime, finish 6-0.

We are due running up the score, and after the 2nd Sporting half and beating Chelsea I think it will come very soon. Hopefully today

And from MCFC twatter:

Roberto opts for height upfront to counter Stoke's defensive power. Apparently Aguero missed training yesterday possibly due to injury #MCFC

Carlos Tevez is again on the bench for Manchester City, who opt for Edin Dzeko and Mario Balotelli.
