Manchester City vs Aston Villa Pre-Match.

[VILLA MOLE]

This will be a media frenzy. They will just click and we'll get done over.

Yep there will be some kind of siege mentality response and we’ll get tonked.

They can be got at ,  I hope we have the balls to do it

[Risso]

I don't suppose the players give a toss, to be honest.

If ever there for a good time to be playing Man City away this is it. They have been very average since the WC with dressing room and board room unrest. Routine defeat I guess but I think we will get a result. Maybe 2-2. We will create plenty of chances I think anyway as City are all over the place defending counter attacks these days.

I think Emery will continue to pick a very attacking side and try to out score them. Id prefer a different approach. Ramsey unfortunately will have played himself out of the team most likely but I'd give him another chance as he played very well against them at Villa Park. His running power on the counter could be key. No to Bailey, keep him in reserve. McGinn back in for me for the first 70 mins or so. Think Young on left could be the best option to defend against Mahrez or Foden coming in field but Emery will go with Moreno I'd say. Moreno on left further up could also be an option.

------------Martinez
Cash, Konsa, Mings, Young
--------Luiz, Kamara
McGinn, Buendia, Ramsey
------------Watkins

Digne, Coutinho, Bailey, Duran, Moreno, Chambers, Donk, Olsen....not the worst bench either

[Risso]

3-0 to Man City I suspect.

I like your optimism BB! I think we're still getting funeralled though

Obnoxiously early and inaccurate!

Wives can be so cruel bob, my sympathies

Presume you are talking about BE's. Only let's him drink on Saturdays n all.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

I think we will get something out of this.

We seem to do better away at decent teams.

Yup. We're still very much a counter attacking team away from home.

Whatever.

[bob]

1-1 Emery will have a plan

[Nunkin1965]

I think we'll do well over the next two games and pick up points off the top two.

Do you just randomly wake up in your bedsit around noon, and think "Shit, 12.30, I'm a bit late for being obnxious on the internet"?

Maybe I've got too much time on my hands but don't really see how I've been obnoxious.

[Axl Rose]

5 or 6-1 to them. The ******

Talking about my drinking habits and my wife on a public pre-match thread, for one. I did not ask you to take it out of OT.

I don't actually give a shit but you don't do yourself any favours.

[Drummond]

I hope Ashley Young gets the opportunity to 'do' the greaseball.
