A couple of things surrounding this game are annoying me:

1.) The suggestion that we should play a weaker team to save for Barca.
Why would we do that? We've won what? 3 trophies in 40 years or so. We are in no position to be prioritizing trophies. I want us to win everything possible. We'd be much better going into the Barca game having beaten Chelsea convincingly and got our spirits up again then we would having seen a bit part team beaten 2-0. Winning breeds confidence.
Also we have much more chance of winning the Fa Cup than the CL. Beat Chelsea and the only 'big' teams left are one of Liverpool/Arsenal and then Everton, presuming they win. We must treat the FA CUP with the full respect it deserves, let's not turn into Rags and Arsenal who've devalued it over the years with their team selections.

2.) People saying the last thing we want is a replay.
Why? Sure I want to win but give me a replay over a loss any day of the week. When it's the international break or end of season this place is full of people itching to see football again. Nothing quite gives me as much excitement as a City game.

The reason teams don't win the quadruple is not because they aren't good enough. It's because of the toll it takes to play so many big games. It's also the main reason teams don't win the treble, & sometimes the reason teams don't win the double, or even the single.

Fuck playing replays v Chelsea; get it over with. If City play Chelsea in a replay it greatly increases the title winning chances of whichever from Arse/scouserags gets knocked out this weekend.

Aside from that.

Morinho is just a nasty, phoney cunt.

The look on his face & the nastiness in his voice today because Wenger has said he's playing down Chelsea's chances due to fear of failing.

Mind games my arse.

He's just a nasty cunt. If it's 'mind games' then Wenger has just spanked his fucking arse at it.

The way the media are feeding him 'straight man' lines at the presser, so that he can deliver his macho one liners is also fucking stomach churning. Like the wankey kids who hang around with the school bully until you kick his fucking face in, then they try to hang around you.

Really sickening.

Just to get you in the mood. I'm not expecting much from Samir in the next couple of games but it'll be good to have him back to full fitness for the run-in.

Best team available tomorrow, Pellers has to get this monkey off his back. If we lose tomorrow but win the league, alls we'll hear from Bourinho and his press lackies is how we can't be real champions as 'They were lucky and couldn't beat the best team'.

Spank 'em, spank 'em good and proper. We're due some goals and now's the time to cash in on them chips.

I don't get how Jovetic is now our strongest 11 . I know hes great player and all but he play 3 games did we won any of this , all i know when Aguero was out last time Negredo an Dzeko save us and we catch up with 7 wins and draw, Last time we lost game because our midfield against Mauren was lacking , Demi and few other players did not create much and i don't defend Edin here to be clear . Also Norwich game Jovetic and Negredo play for 60 min they did not look good to me , also last sub by Pelle was not cler to me he put Kolarov in more cross and left alone Edin in , why he take Negredo if he can play 20 more min i don't get it , but maybe there is explanation. i think we should star with one up front and 5 midfilder with two wingers and also that would set Yaya free. I just don't get how Jovetic is in our strongest eleven when he well he play some good stuff but did he impress me, hes not.Maybe hes not fit yet but for me in this moment Jovetic is not show me nothing to put him in best eleven from not Injured squad that we have.

Here's Johnny ... I mean Paulus ... you might as well come out now man, everyone else know it already ...

"and I don't defend Edin here to be clear" made me chuckle ... without mentioning him and talking about someone else your subconscious presumes you are sounding like making a case for ... oh, and who else calls him with his first name here? We call him Dzonkey btw, and if you are not Paulus as you say, try calling him that once in a while ;)

Mate u are boring really with that palus crap, i think it's normal opinion , how is Jovetic in our best eleven , for what explain to me rather then be boring and repeat over and over all same crap that is not even funny any more ?! I even say that we play with one striker and set Yaya free that is better eleven for me then Jovetić but yap u are bored . I must mention it because people like u, I rearly speek about Edin in last half year two or three time but that means nothing to people like u .

Edin again hunh? Would like to see you make one sentence and call him Dzonkey in it ... I bet you can't even bring yourself to do it just once!

Back to the game, just heard the first part of Pelligrini's presser ... I guess we are going to see 4-4-2 again, he's either onto something and we'll see his genius in the long term and he'll create a team on a single philosophy ... or we'll be calling him a mad man possessing stubbornness even more that Mancini ... only end of season will tell, and I sincerely hope it's the earlier and not the later.

I do hope that pelle dont get too caught up with the mourinho mind games. After all the shit spewed by the sp***al one, i can understand that pelle would feel the need to beat him with his 442. As changing tactics would seem like he is questioning his own philosophy. I would be mightily impressed if pelle is willing to try a different approach.
