    As I said - everyone in the media expects us to lose today, I can't see a big loss against one of the top 4 teams influencing Short.
    Moyes is here for at least the start of next season and possibly for the long term. There are still winnable game to play, any points today are just a bonus.
    I am pretty sure - no I am 100% certain that we WON'T be relegated today <cheers>

    Once again going over here expecting to get hammered. Still couldnt vote away win so the 3 points are ours. They have Monaco next week and they may just not be up for this game.
    Still sh*tting myself.

    I'm not sure he will play both Ageuro and De Bruyne. He has Wednesday night to consider. May just play the reserves with Jesus and Iheanacho. Shame he's only got them on the bench eh?

    I just can't see us holding City for 90 minutes so reluctantly went for the away win but hoping to **** we can hold out for a draw.

    There's a good chance he'll play a weakened side against us bearing in mind they're playing a better side just a few days later. Jesus is out for the season I believe. I think Guardiola likes to make use of his whole squad rather than trying to always field the same players and he can't see us as much of a threat, seem to recall him wildly underestimating Leicester earlier in the season.

    No Gibson though please he's been useless. Always happy to be wrong about a player if it means points for us but he's going to have to get the hang of that running thing if he's not going to be a waste of space.

    Hopefully that is not our starting 11 and Guardiola rests a few players.

    Looks like you can get better odds on Elvis turning up this afternoon than a home win.

    So much for fielding a weakened team lol. Just looking at our bench for a big lad to come on up front if the game needs changing. Oh that's right we didn't sign one...

    You're right but after yesterday this is elevated into almost a must not lose game. But Moyes faith in failing proven players not younger rated forward players (eg Asoro Maja ) makes this game much harder But blind faith time...
