Our record against Man City is awful, even when we considered ourselves to be better than them. Now they're light years ahead of us, I can't see that changing. 4-1 to City.

We'll be sexy going forward but ugly at the back. 2-4.

1-0 Villa
Lescott OG
Some decent players in that Citeh side -there'd want to be, for the obscene amounts they pay. But not too many titles amongst them if you go 1-11 (or even 1-18). This is the time of year when things get a bit serious, and we might be able to exploit that anxiety.
If Warnock, the Dunner and Ginge don't give them a headstart, that is.

Given
RB CB CB LB
Petrov Gardner
Keane N'Zogbia
Gabby
Bent
Just go for it, give Gary a go. We've got nothing to lose with this one.
3-3 (Bent 38, 45) Keane (85)
N'Zogbia will play well.

Can't see anything other than a beating, about 1-3.
The thought of Aguero running at our back 4 frightens me to death.

Then you would fit in nicely with our defenders.

It's hard to predict anything other than a Man City win. If we're going to get anything we need to defend better than we have done all season. But if we do manage that, there is always goals in this team.
2-3. Bent and Petrov.

3-0 Villa win. Heskey with all 3 to answer his critics in the best possible way.
It will happen. Actually that's ridiculous, there is no way we will keep a clean sheet, so 3-2.

3-1 City.
Can't see us winning this one.
Aquaro will run rings round our defence.

Interesting comment from McLeish about 'five internationals at the back or whoever we decide to play there'. Changes afoot.

Can't see anything other than a humiliating defeat. Can't remember a season where our home form has been so bad.
