[Tony P]

Can't wait. 12 hours of wondering around Sofia awaits...

[Moonchesteri]

I know I should probably be optimistic about the game this evening but I just can't help but feeling very nervous! Buzzing that proper football is back, but nervous. Three points please come on City!

[Peter Doherty (AGAIG)]

Your wondering around with btjim's cat?

If you come across julie wren and crossan plese tell the big bundle of joy that Kens no longer looking for him!

[Chinners]

I predict a comfortable 3-0 stroll

[MilnersJaw]

With Mancini you could a least predict which games would be easy and ones we would struggle with. Still excited to see te manager and players in the league and not pre season

[Michael Brookes]

be interesting to see if how goes for the big 2 up top or for the big man/little man combo.

[DoomMerchant]

Three at the back anyone?

[City64]

Well its here at last ! Another new era another dawn !

Short train ride into the city center for a 1.45 meet ......... think im gonna be smashed ! :-D

[Chinners]

I reckon we will set up as a 4-3-3

Hart
Zabs, Komps, Les, Clichy
Ferds, Toure, Milner
Navas, Aguero, Jovetic

Right, I have a train to catch!

[Michael Brookes]

I'm gonna plump for:

------------Dzecko-----------Jovetic------------------
Silva---------Toure----------Fernaninho---------Navas
Clichy-------Lescott----------Kompany-------Zabaleta
------------------------Hart-----------------------------

[Alex Sapphire]

looking forward to one of these Jamie Oliver barms



Is the cocktail stick edible?

[Ted Hughes]

Three at the back anyone?

Pervert.

[kinkylola]

cisse and remy are 2 very speedy players that we will have to watch out for .. .especially with a less than speedy back line.

[City64]

Kolarov is quicker than Cisse and he is slow as fuck ...... Remy is out injured for 6 weeks !

Must dash , 6 minute train journey into Manchester to catch .

[Luke11993]

cisse and remy are 2 very speedy players that we will have to watch out for .. .especially with a less than speedy back line.

Well considering remy has been ruled out, he shouldn't be to much of a problem.

[Risby]

Comfortable win in the end tonight. It will be a cagey start from both teams, but a three goal winning margin will be in the result for us.

Hart
Zaba. Vinnie. Lesscott. Clichy
Ferry. Yaya.
Navas. Silva. Jovetic
Dzeko

Then with the bench we have, if we get some early goals, let others get in on the action.

[Elvistheblue]

I see SKY are reporting tha Arsenal have put a bid in for Yohanne Cabaye. That might unsettle a few in the Geordie camp hopefully!
