    ACS's View
    Well, it looks as though the injury problems are once again upon us. Given who we are playing we always needed a full squad to be in with a chance. Whilst I am hoping Citeh's confidence is shot I still think they will have too much class for us and am expecting a 2-1 defeat for our boys for this sell out fixture.

    Betting
    Will follow.....

    City win, I expect a little 2/3 game slump (Wigan included) and so there'll be no great surprise here...

    Creativity is a big issue for us without certain players; no Cabaye, no Ben Arfa. Marveuax creates but not often enough and we struggle when our fullbacks don't bomb on (losing both Debuchy and Haidara fairly put pay to that on Sunday). We lose this, and we bounce back!

    City 3:0

    I can see us trying some of the rough stuff.
    Some of their players can go missing when teams play rough.

    I'm keeping a lid on my expectations for this one.

    Here's a thought... if you were Pardew would you consider playing the reserves?

    I would.

    We need to forget individual games and allocate/save our personnell for the most winable games.

    Going to this one, whey! Think we'll lose as we always do. My in laws are dyed in the wool citeh fans and we haven't beaten them once since 2007 (when me and the Mrs got together). I see absolutely no reason why that will change this time, although I live in hope for a chance to gloat and perhaps a slice of luck for a change, as opposed to the shocking rubbish we normally get (I'm thinking of the game where Habib Beye was sent off for a fair challenge, the HBA leg break game where we were also denied a stonewall penalty and had one against that was outside the box, and even the return fixture this season when citeh decided to play well for pretty much the only game of the season). SO much anger, we are OWED big time at some point.

    Want to change? I'm sure you'd prefer sitting nearer the flank to see our wide men pushing forward and putting brilliant crosses over and of course being close enough to talk to them when they're taking corners.

    Is there some incident in your past you want to get off your chest Obi? We're here for you. I promise I won't laugh or make fun.
