    man city v qpr

    An easy City win with City going for title and QPR the drop, but...

    Will City crack and will QPR get a point and survive.


    sunderland v man u

    A United battering with them going for a big win to increase that goals for and us in a bad run, but...

    Will United feel the pressure and really think its a lost cause and will we do what we tend to do against the top teams and win?


    Surely no motivation is needed for any team this weekend but, and its a real but....

    BARDSLEY-CAMPBELL-O'SHEA-BROWN-RICHARDSON, not all playing but will they have an affect?

    Honestly would stick some of the subs in and stuff

    Cattermole/Gardner/Turner for a start would be dropped

    Meyler/Vaughan/Bramble playing for a start (MON said in an interview Bramble would get one more chance under him)

    Possibly line up something similar to...

    ------------------Gordon----------------
    Bardo--O'Shea--Bramble--Richardson
    ----------------Meyler------------------
    Elmo----------------------------McClean
    ----------------Sess---------------------
    --------Campbell--Bendtner------------


    Richardson because of the potential pace problem of nani/valencia, a similar reason for Elmo

    play 2 up front because, last game, just go for it! (even though i would prefer United to win the league, looks unlikely), plus this would free up a lot of room for sess

    Let meyler play a holding roll, he can tackle well and can pass very well if memory serves correctly

    Bramble = faster than turner and imo is a far superior player (just his outside problems affecting his reputation)

    Gordon - last game in a sunderland shirt i imagine, give him a bit of a send off, shame as he could of been brilliant

    Both Manc clubs will batter their opposition. but the goal difference will decide it.

    City will absolutely slam QPR, and we will lose narrowly to United.

    I personally hope Bolton then win at Stoke and stay up, for selfish reasons (I want us to bring back Djib...5 in 7 for QPR).

    Be nice for Muamba as well, and also as I think Owen Coyle is a good manager, and a gent, whereas Hughes, who I liked pre-QPR, just gets right on my tits.

    Can't see many changes as if man u win and city don't then there will be an uproar that we played a 'weakened' team.

    City will batter QPR ,UTD will win after a very good display from ourselves, Bolton and Blackburn will go down, a very sad day for British football, not for the teams going down but because a team that gives out multi-multi million pound contracts to football mercenaries win the league And we are ment to say well done.

    Me to mate, but on current form and Utd gunning for the title, i fear the worse......

    Only shinning light is, we are the only club to take 4 points of City.....so we have helped Utd a lot, so it's their **** up...

    Personally i want City to win it.

    Theres a huge difference with strengthening your squad with a couple of major signings to buying a whole squad in 2-3 years
