    I know. My point is, if he's used to playing footie in -10 degrees in Moscow, how come he needs to wear a snood in Paris?

    Knowing our luck, he's probably got flu...

    Team News

    The Sky Blues have failed to win a single game without the services of Yaya Toure this season, and will be without the Ivorian once more this Saturday, along with compatriot Wilfried Bony. Hull are likely to be without top scorer Nikica Jelavic, whose speedy return to the first team seems to have backfired, with reports of his knee injury flaring up yet again. Deadline day signing Dame N’Doye has been unable to obtain the necessary clearance from the Russian FA so he will be unavailable. Pellegrini will be boosted by the return of both Eliaquim Mangala and Samir Nasri, who are both available for selection once more. Whilst Hull City may see a tactical shift if their newly-appointed assistant manager Mike Phelan has had long enough to assess the squad and influence Steve Bruce.

    Match Preview
    Clips of Jimmy Bullard’s goal celebration from Hull City’s draw at the Etihad are likely to be regurgitated once more as the Tigers head to Manchester City this weekend. Steve Bruce would happily take the 1-1 draw that Phil Brown achieved that season as Hull languish down in the relegation zone. Meanwhile, Manuel Pellegrini is without a win in his last four games and will need his side to put Hull to the sword if they are to maintain the pressure on league leaders Chelsea.

    Starting Line-Ups
    Manchester City (4-2-3-1): Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Demichelis, Clichy, Fernandinho, Fernando, Navas, Silva, Nasri, Aguero.

    Hull City (3-5-1-1): McGregor, Dawson, Bruce, Davies, Elmohamady, Livermore, Huddlestone, Quinn, Robertson, Ramirez, Hernandez.

    Prediction

    Hull City will need to be very well-drilled to stand any chance at the Etihad. With their recent form, the Manchester City team are unlikely to underestimate Hull as they did with Burnley. If Steve Bruce returns to a back three I expect the Tigers to be more solid, but not solid enough to resist Man City, who need to win with Chelsea likely to take maximum points from their game against Aston Villa.

    Manchester City 3-0 Hull City

    What a load of rubbish. Whoever wrote that must think Man City are useless.

    He found him in Paris, as far as I can see, he specifically went there to do so.

    I'm guessing that means there are more Man Utd and Liverpool plastic ****s amongst our number than we have Man City plastic ****s

    I'm sure we do have more Man United and Liverpool plastics, but I think the low attendance for this one is more down to the way we've been playing recently.

    What time does this stadium open? I'm sure their site says 1pm but there's loads of us stood outside still waiting. Most coaches arrived now (safely).
