Come on City nothing but a win will do tonight.

[ruralblue]

About to chuck young lad in bath, jimmies n' bed. The cider for me and watch the Blues take someone to the cleaners for a change.

Expecting a good attacking line up tonight and hopefully a solid defence will keep us a clean sheet. Think this will all come down to the last day and possibly goal difference so we need to play catch up tonight.

[Mark (Blue Army)]

Looking for a good performance tonight we really can't afford to lose this game. Let's get at them from the off, keep the ball on the ground none of this long ball shit.

[crossan]

Off to the Printers arms in Cheadle in 45 minutes to hopefully watch City come away with not just the 3 points but a decent entertaining performane as well.............come on you blues!!!!

We could be 6-0 up at half time and I'd still never properly relax until the final whistle went. I can't help it lol.

Should have dropped de jong if he wanted to play Vieira, neither of these two will offer much going forward

[Mark (Blue Army)]

No Bellers????

[Vhero]

Goto my dream thread for a surprise :) If mods are okay I will post my dreams and thoughts every match *ehem*

[citytilidie]

Bench: taylor, onuoha, richards, sylvinho, bellers, barry, santa cruz

[french_tony]

I think thats a decent team, nice and attacking too. Nothing wrong with playing NDJ and Vieira together when we have SWP, AJ, Ade and Tev on the pitch. We'd get kicked to shit otherwise.
And while Paddy may not have the stanima he used too he can still pick out a pass.

[dikdik]

I too am happy with the selection
PV can find the pass
NDJ can fetch the ball to give to PV to find the pass
Two wingers to send in crosses for Ade to knock down to Tevez... good Lord it's like the good old days of Dougan to Richards and Toshak to Keegan and Tommy Booth to Mike Doyle to MS to Franny to the back of the net... oh those halcyon days... nurse quick the pills!! I feel a burst of nostalgia coming on...
