    I'd like to think we could get a point at least. We need a reliable striker though, as we are sadly lacking up front. Too many injuries at the moment. Still might sneak a win, as this is the time of year when a few surprise results turn up.

    False logic. We beat Crystal Palace while Kairdiff lost to them. Know what I mean?

    It certainly is going to be tough be happy not for it to be a cricket score though a draw would be awesome but wouldnt be too gutted if we lost by 1 or 2.

    If we play with confidence we can get a draw and I agree that a win isn't out of the question.

    I expect city to play narrow and be happy to concede possession then look to counter quickly
    Silva is suspended which is a shame but hopefully not insurmountable
    Team I think will start

    Hart
    Zabaleta Kompany Lescott Kolorov
    Fernandinho Garcia
    Navas yaya Nasri
    Negredo

    I would be delighted with a point. Neither Citeh or the Swans covered themselves with glory yesterday so it could be a surprise result. 0-0 <laugh>

    We'll give them a game without doubt , the players will be down after throwing 3 points away yesterday and I'd like to think they'll want to make amends , we nobodies mugs and I exact a strong response .No side is unbeatable and theres been some strange results this season . I'd take a point now but why not 3

    As long as we don't ship more than 3 goals I'll be happy, though we have been riding our luck for too long this season, think it will run out soon, hope it's not on Wednesday, as Citeh could easily put 6 past us!....................<ok>

    Next 3
    City = 1pts
    Utd = 0pts
    Spurs = 1pt
    Total = 2pts

    Next 4
    Fulham = 3pts
    West Ham = 1pts
    Scum = 3pts
    Stoke = 1pt
    Total = 8pts, I'll take the home wins and I don't see hoof-ball's Stoke or West Ham's beating us. We could realistically win all 4 but I don't want to appear overly optimistic.

    Fixture congestion has cramped our style this season allowing the plastics to have a field day, but the proof is in the points. My conservative prediction is that we will earn at least 10pts from the next 7 games, helping us achieve a mid-table finish come seasons end.

    The weather forecast for Wed is crap so that may well influence the outcome - I fancy us to nick a point in what I hope will be a close game

    This is our problem this season scoring goals especially from our two main strikers, 4 from bony and 2 from michu is bottom of the class stats yet we are up the top with possession and up the top with passes....This is our problem and in one of the papers we have a C minus for the first half of the season and that is down from A minus the previous seasons...A huge turnaround is needed in the second half of the season if we are to avoid being in the relegation dog fight which is a lottery at the end of the season...



    PLAYER POSITION TOTAL LEAGUE CUP
    10 Wilfried BONY Striker 7 4 3
    9 Miguel MICHU Midfielder 4 2 2

    8 Jonjo SHELVEY Midfielder 3 3 0

    You've highlighted the problem perfectly Dai. 2 out of our top 3 attacking players are out injured, and the other one isn't 100% fit.

    so that is our problem..<ok> come on now bony and michu have played plenty of games this season to have scored a few more goals than they have. 6 goals between them and we are half way through the season is well below average especially when you look at our pass rate and possession which is one of the best in the premiership....does that not indicate that something is not right because it certainly does to me...

    Well we are on a par with Chelsea's strikers with Fernando Torres, Samuel Eto'o and Demba Ba scoring just six goals in the PL between them!

    Yes but Hazard has 9 goals, and Oscar 6, then Eto'o on 5?
