    Now I haven't managed to get to any of the recent games so could people who have been to them answer these questions.

    When Fontaine and Nyatanga played together at CB we shipped loads of goals but this was with Fontaine playing at RCB in the last few games when they have played together it seems that Fontaine has reverted to LCB and Nyatanga has been playing at RCB.

    Have I read the team sheets right in regards to where they are playing?
    Are they in fact playing better in that formation?
    Or has it made no difference we know Fontaine has never been comfortable playing out of his comfort zone is Nyatanga making a better fist of it?

    From the home games and the away game at Cardiff it looked like Nyatanga was at RCB and again today I think he was there. So yeah I would say he's better than fontaine at RVB as recent results have shown they've kept 3 clean sheets together so something's changed dramatically. Fonts form has picked up greatly too, Still though a new CB would be nice

    Apparently Nyatanga is at RCB. I cannot say he has been my favourite player since he arrived from Derby; a performance at left back two seasons ago when we won 3-1 there made me feel he did not have any future at City.
    even three months ago LN would have been one of the first names on the departure board at the end of this season.
    But cometh the hour and cometh the man; the pairing seems to be working so far so good. so unless proved otherwise, will SO'D please leave well alone.
