I have been looking forward to this game for completely the wrong reason; I just want to post this picture of Shane Long!
Hopefully the team will be motivated for this one after the recent results, but this is City after all. I am more than a little nervous about the game, but apparently not quite as much as the home fans. They do have a little confidence from our away form, but generally, not too many predicting a win on Wednesday night.

Oh dear is all i can say
And the rest...
Let's just hope SC is a little more adventurous against City or we may need calculators
Anything from Man City game is a bonus, they've not been too good away from home but their firepower worries me and without Mulumbu in midfield makes it even tougher.
The Man City game depends on which Albion and which City turn up. If we play like we did against Arsenal then I'd fancy us to get all 3 points but otherwise we'll be lucky to get a draw.
Hopefully their indifferent away form and our good form against the "big" sides will continue.
We were so unlucky last season..10 mins away from a win then Dzeko came on!...and some poor decision making
After todays inept performance (or non-performance!) I'm dreading gettiing a slaughtering on Wednesday
There millionaires have been on fire, we look of the boil.
Man City clearly have a great team and there's no question that getting back on a winning track will be tough, but Albion generally seem to perform well against this kind of opposition.
The good thing, after the disappointment at Newcastle, is that we have the opportunity to get back into action so quickly.
For me, one of the positives about the Championship from a supporters perspective (not that I want to return there anytime soon) was the volume of games, so whenever you took a hit you had the chance to bounce back very quickly.
In the Prem, unless you are involved in the European competitions or on a good Cup run, there often feels like there are long breaks in between games, and matches under the lights are so rare, so Wednesday night is very welcome.
So looking forward to Wednesday and hopefully we can up the tempo a bit and really get stuck into Man City.
Would be great to get something out of this but they know if they lose/draw against us they will be in for a slaughtering from the press/fans etc due to there away form
Surprising so many negative vibes for this one especially in the predictions thread, considering we beat Man U (deservedly) Chelsea (morally) & Arsenal (well we should of), three Champions League teams who we've took points off without the hint of a fluke & yet a lot of fans seem to have written us off because its Man City, suggesting we will get slaughtered, whilst this group of players frustrate the life out of me sometimes, I believe for the first time in our Premiership history, on our day we can beat any team, Wednesday brings no fear for me & it shouldn't for our players
Losing mulumbu has probaly cost us this game even though he was terrible saturday.
A few weeks ago I would have fancied us on Wednesday but whatever it was that made us click is now unclicking fast. I can't see where our goals will come from and I can't see us stopping them getting at least a couple
Did you also see the Sunderland v City game? or the Villa v City game? or how about the Cardiff v City game? If City play like they did in those games they'll be fortunate not to concede 5 goals
WBA 1 Man City 2 FGS Toure.
