Next: Fulham

[Scatman]

Balotelli better start in this game. Best striker on the squad. It will be him and Carlos up front. Mario is the best player in the universe, we are lucky to have such a lad on the team. Future multiple time Ballon D'or winner. Only 21, alot of haters on the lad, all jealousy. Any problems with Mario please talk to me.
Cheers

Oh my lord, he's joined again.

This is the 8th time now. There can't be a more obsessed rag on the planet surely.

Incidentally, I prefer our fourth choice striker to yours.

Who the hell is their 4th striker?

Proof you only need three I guess

[AG7]

Kompany's appeal result: we'll know later on today. Hopefully it's accepted and he becomes available.

Nasri is back available, and will probably start too.

Aguero is back in contention, bench maybe?

Guedetti on bench anyone? After his return with EDS team, why not give him a few light games with first team, then loan him out before the end of Jan window.

Kolarov should be fully fit as well, should we rest Clichy?

Yaya/Kolo remain away ... how's their AFCON going btw? Heard Gervinhio scored two goals for them this week?

[Chinners]

Isn't Welfeck their 4th striker after Pussy, Shrek and Pea

[kennyboy]

Should be interesting to see Nastasic and he's apprentice Lescott here,
also hoping for Balo to start. Dzeko's performance despite he's tap-in sunday was awfull..

[Beefymcfc]

Good to see Fulham getting an away midweek game in.

It's not Howard Webb is it! I heard he was still on their books!

Here are some Man City v Fulham facts courtesy of Eurosport:

Of the 42 players to have scored at least 10 goals in the Premier League/Football League this season, Edin Dzeko has the best minutes per goal ratio; with a goal every 89 mins on average.

Man City have won four and lost none of their last seven Premier League games against the Whites.

In the last 17 Premier League meetings between these two sides, the Citizens have scored in all of them and Fulham have only failed to score in one game.

Fulham versus Manchester City is the most played Premier League fixture (21 games) that has not seen a single red card.

Fulham have kept just one clean sheet in their last 14 Premier League matches.

Manchester City have allowed just 59 shots on target against them this season, the fewest in the Premier League.

Fulham have won none of their six matches against the current top six this season (W0 D3 L3).

Fulham have conceded more goals from outside the box than any other team in the Premier League (8).

Only Fulham (8) have scored more goals from their substitutes than Manchester City (7) in the Premier League this season.

Roberto Mancini’s side have conceded 58% of their goals from set plays, a divisional high (11/19).

And yet those numpties in the press and at other clubs keep insisting we have a leaky defence.

The red card he earned us was a game changer, no doubt about it.
Looking at his position, he has done what he was supposed to do, even created a sitter for Tevez. And was pronounced as man of the match.

So I would say you are biased towards Balotelli.

Strange how his performance in that game got such varying opinions. No way was he man of the match but he did ok.Some good things and some awful but overall I will take it as he contributed significantly to a top win.

Fulham won't be easy unless we get the flying start with a goal and then we might win at a canter bit otherwise they will sit deep and try to catch us on the break with good old Berba targeted to hold the ball up.

Makes a nice change from all the bias against Mario.

That's irrelevant though. Dzeko should not be dropped, he's our most inform striker.

Dirty grass.

And I still don't rate him above Aguero and Tevez as a starting pair. Dzeko has looked most effective as a sub when the opposition is tired of chasing around the greyhounds for 75 minutes, they don't have the sharpness or freshness to deal with a strong targetman.

I said that the other day and got told it made no sense.

Thank god it's not just me.

It would be strange to drop player who score 4 in last 4 games, 5 if u count that stupid own goal against Norwich for man that did not have good season at all . Milner was a MOTM without a doubt when i watch game in peace after, but when u are calm u see that all players did great ,Arsenal was looking like average team even when Kompany hes given red card.I like how Kompany play , Barry was great , Garcia was good, Nastasić is so cool for hes age , he had few minor mistake in air but he drop Walcot from game.Course Zabba need no praise hes amazing so is Silva in last few games back on top, and all of them play great , to win Arsenal like that ,they must have
