If Big Dave picks Kone, and on form he should, and the fans get behind the team, you never know we might sneak a result. We dont know what is going on behind the scenes and no one has come out of this very well tbh.
Also we could also see what the new lad Papy is like in midfield, and put Rodders on the bench, in Mowbray Park. Hope he makes me eat humble pie but I doubt it.
This is probably correct. I woke up this morning and it was gone. I had to delve into the depths of page 2 to revive it. It was hiding among the several larsson threads and frank zappa.
Pep is playing Caballero instead of Hart. He's even f*cking worse than Hart. F*ck me we've got a chance to win today.
strange them butterflies never happen before the first few games mine usually start after midway through the season for obvious reason,lets hope it will remain stress free right through BUT its safc we are talking about here no chance .
First day of the season always throws up at least one mad result ........ let's hope it's ours. This has been a massive build up by City with the new manager and players. They'll be expecting everything to smoothly click into place but it doesn't always work out that way. Sunderland's form, at the back end of the season, was pretty good and Moyes knows how to set a team up for this kind of game. Id say we have a good chance of scoring so I'm going for a mad 2-0 to us.
I've heard he's dropped Joe Hart for this game, and apparently Pep is having trouble getting his defence organised during pre-season. I'd rather play them now before he inevitably gets them going.
