    Sorensen
    Woodgate
    Huth
    Upson
    Wilson
    Shotton
    Palacios
    Whitehead
    Jerome
    Walters
    Jones

    Subs

    Begovic, Diao, Arismendi, Delap, Pennant, Etherington, Fuller

    A Pulis bench without a defender. I never thought I'd see the day!

    Is that a 5-3-2 do you think? Or a 5-4-1?

    No Crouch either which suggests he may be ill after all?

    The Sentinel said earlier on that he has been ill this week but didn't say what it was. I know that his wife has been ill for the last 4 or 5 days as she's mentioned on her Twitter that she's been very ill recently but it sounded more like a nasty virus so maybe it's nothing more than Crouch's caught her virus, assuming it is a virus.

    It's definitely not a 4-4-2, surely?!?

    We don't need him, should have more than enough with Nasri, Silva, Johnson and Aguero up front...will be tough without a target man up front.

    Prediction of 3-0 City and a decent game, enjoy the match!

    Sarge,

    In your team formation I assume Jones is standing on the edge of our box..?

    Penalty spot Smit <ok>

    From a Midlands Journalist on Twitter. He's usually spot on so I think this is true.

    Peter Crouch was taken to hospital on Tuesday after complaining of headaches and dizziness. Left out of #SCFC squad tonight as a precaution

    I'd settle for a 3-0 defeat to be honest.

    I will now Sgt <yikes> As for Jones .. he's had one chance to bring the ball down and fecked up! We are playing for a pt/set up for a pt/ may as well bring on Fuller and TWO wingers now 2nd half? IF were going to lose, let's have a right go.. Great hit by Johnson by the sounds of it?

    Couldn't get a working stream for the game so not watching it but sounded like offside for the first goal but I'll accept that now as we have had a lot of luck recently and it would be churlish to complain about the first goal. Just hope we don't get battered and Mancini takes pity and decides to go traditionally Italian in the 2nd half and settle for 2-0. Please Roberto you know it makes sense!! Please!

    Sgt, somehow I can't see Mancini (or City) taking it easy in the 2nd half, they score for fun usually. I hope that it doesn't get embarassing for us because we have been playing very well of late and a thumping could affect confidence. 3 - 0 wouldn't be too bad, we were never going to get anything this evening.

    Just glad Ryan got himself deliberately booked on Saturday so he'd miss a game we had no chance of getting anything out of anyway, and back for the more important games.

    From a Sky Sports News reporter at the game:

    Jerome is brought off for Fuller, cant believe that Kenwyne Jones is still on, one of the worst performances I have seen this season, so far
