Brilliant front 4, absolutely brilliant. They have just the right mix to cause any team problems

Their team looks very strong.

Although Silva has been shunted out to the right wing.

Wish it was Toure in central midfield not Fernando and Fernandinho.


Going to be a tough game, a draw would be a fantastic result.

Toure playing advanced. They look strong but hope silva and Kompany are not fit.

Isn't it typical Kompany starts. He will prob get injured tomorrow having a rest day and out for another 3 months. But he makes this game! Only hope is he's rusty but he's a class act and raises teammates games

Surprised no Lamela, but I'm fine with Son starting in his place.

All eyes on Kompany and his hammy...

That could be a good team for them today if they want it to be.

Hopefully Kompany and Silva aren't 100%

I'm not confidant! Does that help us!

Hope we get good Sonny today. And here's hoping Nacer comes on and bags the winner so I can use the Truley Chadli Deeply pun on Valentine's Day

Come on fellas, we just got to enjoy the rest of this season, we are already knee deep in bonus territory. ManU getting beat also makes this weekend a freebie in terms of top4 finish and at the start of the season very few of us thought we'd be anywhere near where we are now.

This City side are tactically clueless, my old mucker @Spurs_Bear had Pelligrini's number a while back, tactically he's just a South American Redknapp without the habitual addiction to bullshit. They have players that can hurt you, but players and tactical naivety that allows you to hurt them. If Poch gets it right today, and we're at it and work our bollocks off we really shouldn't be shitting ourselves.

Lets get right up these ****s and give them a game.

Good post, and imma let you finish, but I'm so nervous about this game I genuinely fear I might poo myself.

Son offers us more offensively but offers nowhere near the pressing and defensive ability Lamela does.

Would have started Lamela for this and played Son vs Fiorentina away...
