    I'm in a mess already. Serious PMT (pre-match tension)

    Heads swimming with 'what if..'s lmao

    We're probably going to lose, but for some reason I can't say that with any conviction?!?! Just so proud of the team at the moment, can't help but think of miracles. The dream's flowing back, which definately suggests we're going to get a worse hammering than even anticipated.

    I'm just going to keep quiet, but I'm going mad here!

    Just... what if... WHAT IF

    Will enjoy the match anyway, I'm sure. If we put in the same effort levels and make a good show of ourselves that's all I can ask! And given the lads efforts so far, end of the tottenham game being a perfect example, I can see them pouring heart and soul into it.

    C'MON THE TOOOOOON

    The key is giving Silva a hard time. Maybe rough him up a bit early on to give him an indication that we are up for it. Then keep the crowd quiet and frustrate city by sitting back for first 20 mins and hit them on the counter.

    Would think we would go 4-5-1, if so Gosling will be need in the centre of midfield with Guthrie and Cabaye. Though Cabaye would have to push up more to support Ba.

    Sorry for the formation porn, but:

    -------------BA------------
    Jonas----Cabaye-----Sammi
    ------Gosling---Guthrie-----
    Raylor--Colo-Saylor--Simmo

    (so playing Gos and Gut as CDM)

    Looks good to me.

    Think that Pardew will go 442 with Ba and Shola upfront with Sammy on the right or left ... Hope that Colo, Saylor, Simmo and Raylor will put in the display of their lives ...

    Why does knowone want too see HBA play ? hes clearly our best player when up to fitness, and is exactly the type of player we need to get something at City. I dont understand why people want too see Sammi instead. The guy grew up in France been regarded as been the best french player of his generation. Better than the likes of Benzema and Nasri and you'd prefer to play Sammi ? Or Best ? Its ridiculous

    Because he doesnt look fully fit and playing at the place where he broke his leg could be a lot for him to handle psychologically.

    I'd like to see him play too, but the only problem is that we always need to change the formation to accommodate him. Also with Obertan out of the team and Jonas barely crossing the halfway line, I don't think he'll get a lot of support in the AM role ... So we'll probably see a 442 formation tomorrow with the 2 Ameobis ...

    I think the reason HBA broke his leg there last season is the reason we should play him. If i was a pro footballer and got injured against a stupid tackle like he was. I'd be itching too play too get my own back, wouldnt you ?

    No idea in truth. If I step on the ball playing 5 a side I still get visions of breaking my leg when I was four! No idea how Hatems coping with it.

    Personally, yes, but it affects everyone differently.

    Anyway I think Sammy will start on the right and Pardew will pick either Shola or Ben Arfa to partner Ba.
