Manchester City v Newcastle United - 21/02/15 @ 5:30PM (live on Sky)


Recommended Posts

Manchester City have been fairly poor for quite a while now. The last time MUFC kept a clean sheet in any competition was before Christmas, and they were fortunate to draw at home to Hull. Even their last victory against Stoke was unconvincing. Moses and Arnautovic were terrorising them first half and Milner should have been sent off, imo. The only reason they are even a thought in this title race is the consistent performances and sheer will of a few genuine world class players. I would pick 18 Premiership clubs to give them a serious challenge on Saturday. NUFC is the other club. This is at Etihad, so 4/5-0 is likely.

Tbf they have been poor because of no Yaya and no Aguero (mostly) Plus Bony to join the party. The team we'll face will likely be very different to the team seen over last month or so.

Aguero has started the last five matches and they have won once. I don't consider Bony a serious upgrade over Dzeko. The Toure factor is obvious as he is essential to their style of play. Honestly, I believe they will continue to sputter along unconvincingly.

It's all right, he just said he's taking some kind of gun with him.

If you get in nice and early there is some match day parking at Asda next door. Traffic gets bad close to the match though. Away from the redeveloped land though as said above it is rough, more rough than where they used to be.

 

An alternative to parking close is to park in the Ashton area maybe pretend to go shopping in ikea, and get the tram, but you may have to queue to get on the tram after the match.
