Get a couple of stars banged in and make it official!!!.

Am prepared to settle for nothing less that 0 - 6 today, hat trick from De Jong and a goal a piece for Dzeko, Richards and Komps. Anything less and city can fuck right off :-p

I think we gonna win.

Heard the usual bollox on 5live before - "If Chelsea win today they'll be right back in the title race, rags will be looking over their shoulder etc..

Colin Murray - "But City have more points - so if they win today, surely they will be closer than Chelsea are?"

Pundit - "ermmmm"

If we gamble on Tevez and he breaks down and misses games it will be a stupid mistake.

Jamie Redknapp said Tevez was out doing fitness training @ midday. Seems odd. Any news?

Really hoping for a win here, can't see Balo making the squad.


This aside, can anyone tell me who the other commentator is alongside Martin Tyler in the Sun vs Liv game?

Will Tevez play? Some people are saying he's out with an injury.

Is that on normal Sky? If so it's Kevin Phillips?
