*** Official Match Thread - Stoke v Manchester City ***

[Alex Sapphire]

Gaz looking lean

[carl_feedthegoat]

wtf ???? why ????

[ozzyisgod]

Um......

[Moonchesteri]

Yaya further forward surely. Hope it will work again! COME ON CITY

[lets all have a disco]

Why do we make Crouch look like a 30 million pound striker?

[ayrshireblue]

We were good the first half but have been poor since the break.

[Dameerto]

Dont panic it's part of the plan (TM) - double substitution staggered by a few mins, defensive sub first, attacking sub second.

[steveo_88]

Yaya going forward as the battering ram.

Gaz Baz and Javi rotate as to who stays back or goes forward in the centre.

[PALUS]

i cant undarstan this at all , are we going for draw...

[Sideshow Bob]

saving tevez for madrid, i guess.

[mr_nool]

Yaya further forward surely. Hope it will work again! COME ON CITY

Don't mind that at all, but take Balo off then, not Tevez!

[ruralblue]

knock or protecting him? as happy as i am to see Barry back i would have thought Edin. Yaya pushing further up.

[Moonchesteri]

Don't mind that at all, but take Balo off then, not Tevez!

Yep especially as Balo is now a (red?) card waiting to happen

[ashton287]

Mancini in WTF did he make that change for shocker

[Michael Brookes]

Silva for Sinclair?

[PALUS]

Its common knowledge that Dzeko has to score 3 hatricks a game to guarantee him a place in the next starting squad.

[Dameerto]

I think we might be changing formation if Silva comes on.

[ashton287]

If we are left with mario for the rest of the game now it will be a massive test of his self control.

[PALUS]

WTF u wait Bob change Sincler for Silva at list
