Official Match Thread: City v Stoke

[Martinez]

Team is; Given, Zabaleta, Toure, Kompany, Sylvinho, Ireland, De Jong, Barry, Petrov, Robinho, Tevez looks like Robby and Tevez upfront :D

Looks like quite an ordinary 4-4-2, Bellamy probably just rested. Strange that RSC is missing? Is he injured as well? We're quite a short team to be facing Stoke.....

[Yesterdays Game...]

must be confident of no stupid longballs and leaving the ball on the floor where it should be! should be fun

[edge275]

I read in an article he said he was going 4-3-3 unless he was playing a bit of mind games.

--------------------------Given---------------------------

Zabaleta-------Toure--------Kompany--------Sylvinho

--------------De Jong-------------Barry-----------------

-------------------------Ireland--------------------------

---Robinho------------------------------------Petrov---

-------------------------Tevez----------------------------

Seems a pretty decent line up to me.

[aaron bond]

quite a small team we've got out there today. need to ensure we keep the ball on the floor otherwise we're at risk of being outmuscled.

with the quality of the players we have there though we should be able to do that

[Dubciteh]

id imagine hes savng bellay for wolves game and he can only play one game a week makes sense, rather bellamy than robinho on a cold night in molineux!

Our bench looks extremely inexperienced wheres our massive squad gone??!

[MARKMAKAVELI]

I'm happy Petrov is starting. No injuries, just crosses and goals please Martin.

But where is RSC, we just have an attacking line of dwarfs, I know it's the goodwill season,and time to be jolly,but surely !.

FFS RSC is a piss taker!

[Michael Brookes]

rSC, Richards and Bellers. Still a decent enough line up tho.

[edge275]

Haha what a guy look at Mancini's scarf. Looks like it's 4-3-3 like I said.

[Crossie]

Anyone got a working stream? paste it in would ya?

[shawzy]

iv got this stream on through Veetle..Good quality http://www.atdhe.net/11327/watch-manche ... stoke-city

[shawzy]

Haha Mancini got a City scarf on

[edge275]

Maybe it isn't 4-3-3 after all. They presented the line up that way at the beginning but looks 4-4-2. Looks like Mancini was playing a few mind games.

[shawzy]
