Come on City, see it out.

If this was a boxing match the ref would stop it now :-(

Fuck em!. They can't keep this up for 90 minutes. Come on City sort it!

this is the game we needed silva for, more than any other to date in my opinion

Good job it aint then ;)

we're gonna get slaughtered here. worryingly, we have no striker on the bench and vieira is the only midfielder. our attacking threat on the pitch is all down to tevez, seeing as milner is too slow to be a winger and jo too shit.

They have much more pace, whilst I'd like to think we have more skill.

On the bench?

as a squad....I believe in our lads...having 17 pixie midgets with the speed of Carl Lewis means fuck all

Unless adam johnson plays instead of jo we will have no direct threat on the counter.........

Their midfield are so much more agile, mobile, faster and skillful than ours. We're in danger of getting swamped. Hart will earn his money tonight that's for sure.

Exactly. Jo's not left footed and Milner isn't the quickest kind of player.

The left side worries me too; neither of the players are naturally left footed and will look to cut in/pass to Tevez on the break. Predictable.

Hope Carlos or Yaya can create something from nothing.

Just joined - how many down are we, it sounds bad.

What's that? It's 0-0? Then man up and stop panicking.

Fuck me anyone listening to ESPN?? McManananana is such a twat. Talking absolute shite.

Squad wise I sort of agree with you, although Arsenal so far seem much more up for it. But if you only look at the subs, Arse are stronger hands down.

Chelsea ripped us apart at their hutch in the opening 20 last season....what did it finish?

Yeah this is why i dont understand mancini as he is just inviting pressure from the best passing team in the the league if not the world.

I rather leave Jo on and take Milner off for AJ. Jo brings more to this kind of game than MIlner.

Wolves 1-0 Chelsea for anyone wanting to know

No worries mate!

And I agree with you. We can change it around.
