Manchester City v Aston Villa Pre-Match Thread

[luke25]

We lost 4-0 there twice last season and both performances were truly awful. They have also considerably strengthened since then, qualified for the Champions League and won their first trophy in thirty five years... we'll dick them!

Err perhaps not I can see this being 2-0 or 3-0 to Citeh...

Every time i've been to Main Road or whatever the hek that new thing is now called we've been totally dicked, one of last seasons defeats was 'only' 3-0 though.

I'm finding it quite difficult to see this as anything other a severe tonking for us.

[Irish villain]

Given and Dunne should be heading into this game with a point to prove. A clean sheet and anything is possible. Ok, so that all sounds like a cliché but I am serious. If we defend well we can frustrate them and let Petrov get stuck into Barry who knows.

0-0

[TopDeck113]

On the basis that the performance can't be any worse than the two visits last season, I'm going for a 2-0 defeat but we can leave with our heads held high.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

Torn a new one. 0-4

Bloody hell, I'll have what you're drinking. Can't see us scoring four. Three, maybe but never four.

[l_mckay]

not looking forward to this 1! cant see anything other than a city win,3-0 to them.

[Des Little]

It's a nailed on shoeing. 3-0 to them; Joe Hart hat trick

[PeterWithesShin]

Them 1 - 2 Us

Stop attention seeking

I dread to think what your reaction would have been had I gone with my first thought of a 4-1 win! 

[PaulTheVillan]

City 1-0 Villa

[TheSandman]

0-0 in what is the worst game of football since time began.

I'll go with that one.

[London Villan]

Barring one performance in recent history we always get beat up there. I'd love it to be different, but can't really see it.

I won't be doing the team talk!

[The Left Side]

Not a good one for us I feel, 3-0 drubbing.

[villan1975]

Looking at the OS tonight there are still tickets left out of
the 1700 allocated.Surely this is not correct for a three o clock kick off
on Saturday?
Them 4-1 Us.

We need to get a result at places like mancity away if we are to finish 4th this season. So go for a win and come away with at least a draw.
