Colos Short and Curlies Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 I'd be surprised if Aguero starts, the eggs are firmly in a Champions League shaped basket here and a knock to him tomorrow or at the weekend would be the end of that dream. So Bony hattrick it is Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alijmitchell Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Mbabu fit I'd be tempted to throw him at LB and shunt everyone along a space Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Arguero on 99 league goals. Aguably the best striker in the World. Agually he might not even be the best striker from Agentina depending how you classify Messi, like. http://chelseaseason.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/1.bild_.jpg Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magpie Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Zabaleta at right back then, whoever plays left wing needs to attack him as much as possible, he look quite vulnerable against Chelsea and had to be substituted before he got sent off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Not particularly bothered about Kompany and Sterling, they've both been poor for a while. We'll still get beat, but not because of that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Snrub Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 0-2. Yaya Toure to be the best midfielder in the world yet again like every other time he plays against us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nufcjb Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 If we want to attack Zabaleta, then Townsend should play on the left but he did a good job helping Anita down our right on Saturday. Who do City play wide on the left? Mbabu played against City at the Etihad didn't he? Wasn't he quite good or bad? Can't remember but he would be good at overlapping and taking on Zabaleta than Dummet would. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 It's not really Rafa's tactics we have to worry about, it's the 11 simpletons asked to carry them out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Figures 1-0 Football Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 After one win at the weekend against a terrible Swansea team, I've found some more optimism. Heart says 0-0/1-0 win, head says 3-0 defeat without a shot on target. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhoywhonder Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 http://chelseaseason.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/1.bild_.jpg Pth, but could he do it on a wet tuesday night at Wigan? Oh yeah...he tried. It was a resounding no. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimpy474 Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Aguero will egg our fragile defence. Yup, he'll batter the living daylights out of us. Aye he's bound to poach a couple of goals. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mighty__mag Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Really annoyed this fixture has come at this time. Every time we do well vs these something seems to go wrong, or right for them. Remember Tiote worldie vs them and getting ruled out because Hart claimed he couldn't see? There have been other times where we have matched them and some form of help(them)or unluckiness(us) ruins it. Record is garbage, and typically there are records to be broken, Aguero to hit the 100 mark etc, I still think they are out of the PL title so I'm guessing they will just be playing for a highest possible finish. Don't fancy us unless Aguero doesn't play and De Bruyne gets injured in warm up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Crooks Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Swansea missed some gilt edged chances that aguero et el just wouldn't miss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted April 18, 2016 Share Posted April 18, 2016 Foolishly excited. Don't know whether it's momentum, or the fact City will have 2 away games in 72 hours with a huge Champions League semi around the corner. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Toon Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 We win and our chances of survival increase to 50/50, we lose and it's daydreams of Wigan, Huddersfield and Rotherham. This game is massive. The type of game that we haven't won for decades. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Altamullan Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Great news re Nasri and Silva. Mbabu was fantastic against Citeh, specifically made Sterling look poor and I think he was subbed prior to Mbabu also going off injured. I'd love to see Mitro against Otamendi and Demichelis (particularly the latter), but can't see that pairing ever starting again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 If the players have the passion and intensity of a club fighting for their lives against relegation, then Man City are beatable. We rarely spring a surprise result but hope Rafa can change that tonite. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tisd09 Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 The way I see it we need at minimal to beat Villa and Palace and then pick up 4 points from Man City, Liverpool and Spurs, it is a tall ask and can't see us the points we need but I just want to fight, not go into the Man City game tonight like we are already down 2-0. Hopefully the win on Saturday will boost the confidence of the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
