They don't have a healthy RB on the squad. They've used Clichy there as said earlier and Lescott played there for a few months at Everton. Regardless it'll be a weakness.

I think they play one up top and five in midfield because City struggle against a pressing midfield like ours. The more bodies there the more outlets to pass around the pressure.

They're saying Zabaleta has a chance to play.

I wish Studge was healthy for this game. He would have a field day against their slow CB's. Guess we'll just have to just settle for one of the best players in the world...

I can't wait to see some runs behind their back line, especially Demichelis if he plays. SO slow. With Hendo and Coutinho pulling defenders out of place with those runs.... Could be very exciting.

Suarez is going to run rampant over Demichelis.

Also, in regards to the buyout, one of the papers is saying £130mm for an EPL club, £100mm for a foreign club...

I'm glad they got this deal done when they did.

Not sure how I feel about it. He's a great passer and his field awareness is superb. His first touch is pretty terrible though, and his finishing is pretty average.

Usually lurk but have to make sure I'm not crazy. The over/under for goals tomorrow is 3.5 with the over being +124. The over would be a great bet would it not?

I think there's more or less a guarantee of 4+ goals.

Hey - Brad Smith made the bench. You know you're having some Defensive depth issues when that occurs.

Whats in worse shape - our outside backs or theirs?

Going into media blackout now so that I can watch the DVR of the game later.

I hate that result cause we easily could have left there with points (1 or 3)...

That said.. proud of our guys! They went in there and stood toe to toe with the best collection of players in the EPL.. Played like we were at Anfield... We were always going to be susceptible to the counter playing that way and of course, our achilles heel, set pieces...

Robbed of a clear chance on goal and a couple of other nice chances created..

Sahko looked sketchy, but has played well and Im not concerned moving forward.. Cissokho actually lookied like the player we wanted on loan as cover...
