I know its going to be a hard game at city this weekend but after seeing them play yesterday and seeing their run of late I would be pretty confident of our run continuing at eastlands. But then again you never know which spurs team will turn up. Lets hope we can play the way we know we can!

Keeping Robinho and Wright-Phillips in check will be the key. I think it will be a tricky game though, our away form has been poor in the last couple of seasons and their home form is good.

If Harry sorts out are away form the man really is a football genius.

We don't really know what Man City will turn up either though. Robinho and Elano can rip teams to shreds and Sturridge and Ireland are playing well too.

I see this game having goals and I expect Modric to shine and open his Premier League account. It's important for confidence and our league position to pick up points here. We've dropped points against Stoke, Hull and home to Sunderland and need to recoop these in games we normally wouldn't expect much from.

If someone had told me we could be getting 8-10 points out of Arsenal, Liverpool, Bolton and Man City I would have thought they were nuts.

I hope this last week doesn't get us too far ahead of ourselves. We still have a lot of work to do. Theres still problems at the back, mostly from set pieces. And theres still a lack of balance at the moment. We have to make up for the bad start to the season and i hope we can keep it going. We're only 4 points away from City in 10th place. So thats great, but we cant really afford to lose this one and fall 7 points adrift of mid-table. I'd be happy with a draw in this one.

city have been much better at home than away - plus they had 3/4 strikers out yesterday

I hope none of them return next sunday - but I expect at least one will

if we get a point I'll be delighted, three and delirium might start to set in :)

It will be a really tough game as City have been really strong at home. Something doesn't seem quite right there though. It is like Hughes is trying to form flair players into a hard working system and it isn't quite clicking. However they have players that can do a lot of damage and I think the game could go either way.

can see us getting beaten, although a draw would not be impossibel. I just think that their home form will continue

It just depends which City turn up. They have been good at home and when they click they are devastating.

Our last few visits up there have seen us play quite well. I expect it to be an open game with 3 or 4 goals being scored. Years ago Citeh were a bock team for us. 3-1 to the Spurs!

Man City at home are a much better team than the Man City away from home.

We will be lucky to get something out of the game... but we certainly have lady luck on our side at the moment.

It will be great for Rednapp to ahve a good week with the team to work on this game.
