***Official City v Liverpool Match Thread***

[DoomMerchant]

If he decides to go for Nasti/Lescott then I think he needs to position Garcia in front of them to stop Suarez running at them & Gerrard taking pot shots.

That done, we can set about dismantling Liverpool with whomever he decides to pick; they are all capable of doing it.

Leave Lescott & Nasti unprotected & Suarez/Sturridge will have them for breakfast (as they would Vinny 1v1). Those two, unlike our strikers, pass to each other & run off each other. It's a straightforward, obvious threat.

Deal with it tactically then take them to pieces.

That's apparently what my 7 year old did on FIFA13 because we beat them 9-1. He claims this portends a big City win. Fingers crossed he's a tiny little 50 lb Oracle. For the curious it was Tevez double hat trick and Aguero just the singleton hat trick. Argies, yeah.

Screw that, I want him to win it then declare retirement from international football.

Isn't this the last AcoN for 4 years? Yaya won't be with us in 4 years so it won't matter anyway.

It'd be nice to have him back but I'd prefer for him to go on and acheive his goal of winning the ACON.

Bellamy on sky.

I still miss the bastard. He's exactly what we're missing imo.

Just spotted him then. He's got a cheeky Garcia going on with his hair.

I miss his performances against the rags. Dragged the whole team by the scruff of the neck pretty much every time we played them.

Could be playing against us next season, if he doesn't retire.

Too negative. Three attacking players out of eleven.

Looks a decent line-up, we need to be up for it from the off.

Anybody seen the Dippers yet?

Edit: Seen.

It depends if you want Nasri on there instead.
