Manchester City v Aston Villa Match Thread

[Steve R]

Five at the back, good grief.

[VillaAlways]

Albrighton must be injured surely?

[PeterWithesShin]

I was thinking of going to the pub to watch it, but we never win when I watch us at the Strath (best result we had when I watched us there was the QPR 1-1 with tre last minute Dunne OG) and the other close pub, Ivy Bush, has a small heath sticker in the window. Too lazy to walk any further. So, do I go to the Strath or not.

[Matt Collins]

It's as close as he could get to the team v hull given injuries

Hardly a surprise

Five at the back, good grief.

Same formation as Saturday apart from having an actual midfielder instead of a Winger in midfield.

[PeterWithesShin]

Hart, Zabaleta, Kolarov, Yaya Touré, Kompany, Demichelis, Milner, Javi García, Dzeko, Silva, Nasri

We really should get smashed out of sight. So we'll prob draw or get skanked out of a result by the ref.

'Kin hell it ain't exactly a long walk home for ya if you realise you've made a huge error of judgement!!!

Albrighton is injred - just mentioned it on Sky. We have zero luck with injuries. Where is Gary Gardner?

[Legion]

Injured.

[Legion]

Probably.

Yeah but I may jinx us by going and we'll be 5 down by the time I give up!

[villa_cads]

No problem, we'll do em. 2-1 Villa.

[pooligan]

No width at all in that team

Big difference between offering gaps in midfield to Hull and showing such encouragement to Man City. They must be rubbing their hands.

[PeterWithesShin]

Not a problem, we'll just one touch pass our way through that lightweight Citeh midfield.
