***Official Villa v City Match Thread***

[Beefymcfc]

Anybody seen the line-up's yet, I'm wondering how many ex-City players will be out there for Villa? Wasn't there a bust-up last week with Stevie I telling McTaggart's Dog to fuck off whilst Nzogbia said that this was the lowest point of his football career?

With the planned protest and things not quite right in the dressing room then this is the perfect time to get a valuable away win, a win that we haven't achieved in 5 years.

We have to watch the Keane Bent partnership but we ought to be too strong for Villa. We have to be looking for three points from every game so I hope we're up and at em from the off.

Plus their confidence should be down, since they haven't won at home since bonfire night.

We'll need to score at least twice to win, given that Keane will score his obligatory goal against us. I have no idea what his stats are against us, but I'd bet they're good.

Dislike.

[Buffalo Soldier]

Richards and Clichy on the bench. Unbelievable.

Big call by Bobby this, 3 points is an absolute must. I'll reserve judgement until after the game but if we lose and he's fucked about with the line up I'll be mightily fucked off.

[ant london]

why the FUCK is he cunting around with the team on a day when we need to fucking win and we don't have a game for ages.

I fucking knew he'd do this today....stupid tinkering fuckwit

Please make me eat my words

They seem to fall apart when we took Milner off their hands. This was when Lerner proved to O'Neill that he was not going to be a piggy bank anymore to which O'Neill deserted the sinking ship faster than an Italian Cruise skipper. How things change.

Let's hope the uncertainty over there over-shadows the return of Barry and Milner as they got dogs abuse last time and it put them off their game.

Agreed.......I dont like this line up at all.

[aaron bond]

He's given a lot of players a big chance in a must-win game today.

I wouldn't have dropped Micah and Clichy, and wouldn't have played De Jong.

Hope the lads and Mancini prove me wrong. The side is still good enough to win, but my confidence has ebbed a little now!

COME ON CITY!!!

[Superbia]

I knew hed do it im sick of this shit frm him

[paddyblue]

can not see the reason for this, especially with no game next weekend

[Sideshow Bob]

how many times do we have to see it to know that NDJ, BARRY AND MILNER SHOULD NEVER PLAY TOGETHER!!!

[Beefymcfc]

Bugger, I was going too change Edin for Ade in my FT but didn't because I thought he'd be nailed on to play.

Not a bad team but not to many people's liking I suggest. Enough there to win I reckon.

He is obviously taking the Europa very seriously.

Queue fatigue, sloppy passing, no back tracking from midfield, points dropped and a parade at the end of the season for the scum while we all wonder how we managed to fuck this up.

[CCC]

Calm down. This line up is perfectly capable of winning easily.

[Fesan]

Looks like he did not joke about time to play italian football... Reserve judgement untill after the game but looks like he is hoping for a 0-1.

Maybe he thinks we will do better playing counter attack football away from home now that we are struggeling to open defenses up?

[ayrshireblue]

Richards, Clichy, Nasri and Dzeko should all be in today unless injured. Which seeing there all on the bench they aren't. He's got the fullbacks wrong. Nasri should be in for De Jong, we don't need three sitting midfielders against Villa and Dzeko should be in for Johnson.
