[seattle_wanderer]

Knight's looking a little slow....

[hisroyalgingerness]

As is the rest of the afternoon

[Bruce Rioja]

feck's sake, can we not keep a clean sheet? Isn't this a team who hadn't scored at home for the last 3 games?

Yes, but we're a side that hasn't kept a clean sheet in the last 15 aways.

[hisroyalgingerness]

Oh well, get these things out of the way quickly then eh

[Bruce Rioja]

Knight's looking a little slow....

As opposed to?

[jaffka]

yaya booked for a foul on mavis

[Horza]

how did Zabaleta not score there?!

[HMX]

Defensively shit.. goes without saying though

[HMX]

wtf is Muamba doing? Pass, lad!

[pete101]

need half time!!

[HMX]

Team of feckin' nancies, they are.

[Horza]

They've got a very solid midfield three and they're transitioning well. They're happy to soak it up and feast on the space and on the face of things so far our kinetic approach isn't like to change that.

[HMX]

Indeed, can't see us turning this round, but I said that last game

[jaffka]

need some half time magic from oc

[Ianmooreslovechild]

Still in it so I'm not moaning.City look very sharp going forward and would make any open styled team's defence look dodgy.CYL playing well.Can't see us getting anything here but it's great supporting a team you can't write off.Excellent to watch again

[TANGODANCER]

They'll have one of ours sent off before it's over. Get touched, die, then jump up uninjured 5 seconds later. Toure, Tevez and that cheating little xxxx Silva, ranting at the ref and pointing at his hand when the ball hit Cahill on the shoulder. Best forget all that and play a forty-five minute game. We're second best at everything right now. COME ON YOU WHITES.

[pete101]

Confident we'll get a goal, just a case of if / how many we concede.

[Horza]

Our bench options aren't looking too good - Moreno for Lee later? other than that Blake and http://www.twitter.com/iviklas" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; are more for edging tight games right at the end with a moment of brilliance and this game is not tight.

So far Marriner's been pretty decent, we may be forced into last man fouling or sommat but that's a different matter.

[HMX]

Nice run down the line by Ricketts - beats his man, crosses in and Kev just misses with a good volley!
