And after their 3-0 win last week people were saying they should give the caretaker manager a full-time job...
I think this is the best possible time to play them. They've made a lot of transfers and they haven't had time to settle in. They'll be wanting to make a good impression right away, especially after a poor display against Tottenham, this could lead to them playing really well, or trying too hard and running out of position, not passing as much as they should or doing something stupid like Cole did against Arsenal. Having said that Mascherano, Agger and Torres are doubtful to start and we'll struggle without whichever of them don't play. Aurelio, who I believe to be top class is fit and should start, hopefully without injury. But it's still City, and they have some very good players. I have no idea what the result's going to be, but I can't wait for the game.
I see shitty shitting all over pool, sorry. No cole, Torres and Masch, only stevie G to be the hero. I predict a 4-1
If we lose, which is possible, I hope it is by that much and that we've had a proper go at getting back into it after being 2-1 down.
