Rags on Sunday!

[Luke11993]

I no it's not being mentioned much at the moment but we have them Sunday, just been researching there forum, finding out what there sayin about the game coming up an they seem to think Anderson being ruled out will be a massive hammer blow to them, in there team the person I fear the most is that lil wanker Hernandez purely because of his pace and never giving up, hopefully saf will go with 'experience' in scholes and giggs and we can ruin them, confident but nervous already!

It all depends upon our team selection. And as we all know that has not been very dependable so far.

With team selection I think what has to be remembered is that we are now coming to the end of a period of 7 games in 23 days, that's equivalent to a game every 3 days. I wonder what we are going to put out against Dortmund but I'd be amazed if it wasn't our strongest side against the Rags.

Well Hart in goal is a no brainer, Komp and Nasty is following suit but the attack is a dodgy one..Dzecko on the bench to come on might be an option me thinks. Tevez looked "so and so" today . Kun is out of form and Mario is Mario what ever that means.
CTID!!

Do we go with our 2 Argentinians or throw mario in the mix to stir them up? Personally I'd go with Mario and Carlos and believe this is why Carlos was brought off today.

I've always thought that Mancini picks his side for each game well before the game is in sight. Tevez' lack of game-time recently is purely down to this and I'm certain Mancini wants Carlos at full fitness by Sunday.

If we go out and attack united we will ruin them but if we sit back and allow them to attack us it'll be a disaster. I'd be tempted to go edin upfront and get him some good service he will score. Similarly tho i think we could play mario and Tevez quick neat little passes and their defence will be all over the place. I don't feel they can out score us which in most of the games this season is what they've had to do to teams.

------------------------ Joe
Pablo (Maicon) - Vinnie - Matjia - Gael (Pablo)
----------------- YaYa ----- Gareth
Carlos -------------- David --------------- Samir
---------------- Mario

that's based on the unfortunate assumption that Jimmy wont be in contention. Otherwise, line him alongside Gazbaz, move Yaya forward instead of Samir. It still remains to understand which FBs will be available for the pick.

Whatever, as much as I feared today fixture, I am confident as rarely I've been for Sunday. Unless something very EXTRA-ORDINARY. I mean.

Sorry, for a minute there I thought you were suggesting starting with Dzeko.

Which after the way he destroyed Madrid, Chelsea and Everton makes perfect sense.

[Green & Blue]

In my opinion it would be unforgivable not to start with a front two of Aguero and Tevez.

[ashton287]

Hart

Zaba -kompany-nastasic-clichy

Barry-yaya

Tevez-silva-aguero
Dzeko

And fucking destroy them.

[BlueMoonAwoken]

I Would bring on aguero on 60 th min for dzeko or ballotelli. I would play silva behind strikers and toure defensive and play milner on the right and nasri on the left.

Zabs rb komp, nasti , clichy if he is fit or kolarov

If he gets the service I think he can do well. I feel he's asked to do a different role when he starts than when he comes on and he's not comfortable with it.

[phips]

I wonder what we are going to put out against Dortmund

that's what i want to know. are we going to go for the win (and hope for Ajax to lose to Real, which is more than likely)
and try to get in the Europa League? or are we going to rest for the United clash?

if its the latter, then I'm really hoping for:

Hart
Zaba Vinnie Nasti Clichy
Barry Yaya
Tevez Silva Kolarov
Aguero

[london blue 2]

After the last few derbies I'd be surprised if bacon doesn't go all out attack. Valencia young Rooney and RVP. Sooner or later those fuckers are gonna beat us, I'm more worried than the previous year.

[sheblue]

Joe
Zaba vinny nasti clichy (if fit)
Barry yaya (put your running boots on yaya)
Nasri (a 95 minute performance please)
Silva
Tevez
Aguero

Balotelli and dzeko subs.

[Dronny]

Hart

Zaba -kompany-nastasic-clichy

Barry-yaya

Tevez-silva-aguero
Ballo

And fucking destroy them.

I'd go with that...

[The Man In Blue]

I will be amazed if Balotelli doesn't start.
