[surf]

Let's smash them.

16.10?

 

what fresh nonsense is this?

16.10?

 

what fresh nonsense is this?

 

 

Generally means there are 3 games on that day.

 

12pm

2.05pm

4.10pm

 

Very loose use of the word 'generally' there, mind

 

Edit:

Nope, just 2 games but the earlier game is 2.05pm hence why we are 4.10pm

 

Not sure why they dont do 1.30pm like normal - Newcastle v City is the game

[Conrad]

same team as last league game, save for Gerrard for Aspas obviously

[muleskinner]

think Gerrard, Sturridge and Sakho will start this and we will do them 2-0

[Bigal]

Sahko??

 

is he fit?

 

when is flanno back?

[schmuckdonald]

Sahko??

 

is he fit?

 

when is flanno back?

 

This is the main question that occupies my thoughts.

[Tommy Cockles]

From Physio Room:

 

D Agger - Calf/Shin Injury - no return date

 

M Sakho - Hamstring Injury - 12th Jan 14

Yes he is. Echo had him possibly returning on Sunday.

YES! YES! YES! YES!

Sick of 2-0 wins. Back to 4-1 thrashings for me

[torn]

From Physio Room:

 

J Flanagan - Hamstring Injury - no return date

 

 

Flan - NOOOOOOOOOOOO

[Swipe]

Agger out with calf strain.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Wonder if Flanno will do a 'Carra'? Totally different players but weirdly as a right footer, he's our best LB (as Carra was when younger)

[Dan]

Agger out with calf strain.

 

Out for a month.

[DJS]

Flan - NOOOOOOOOOOOO

Pretty sure Pascoe said in a recent press conference or interview, that Flanno was due back in about 10-14 days.

Something like this would suit me:

 

Mignolet

Toure Skrtel Sakho Johnson

Henderson Gerrard Lucas Coutinho

Sturridge Suarez

[Boca]

Something like this would suit me:

 

Mignolet

Toure Skrtel Sakho Johnson

Henderson Gerrard Lucas Coutinho

Sturridge Suarez

 

Think it would be madness to move Henderson out of the middle now when he's playing so well there.

[sean]

Just like to point out, at this stage, Cissokho is monumentally f***ing s****.

Something has to give if we want Sturridge back in the side.

[Falconhoof]

He's a decent defender, nothing amazing but he's not s****.

Henderson Gerrard Lucas Coutinho

Sturridge Suarez

 

Wouldn't drop Sterling.

Reckon Sturridge will be on the bench

[The_Adder]

I'm going to go all hipster (by this I mean a complete c***) and call it 4-2-2-2 :

 

Mignolet

 

Kelly Toure Sakho Cissokho

 

Gerrard Lucas

 

Henderson Coutinho

 

Sturridge Suarez

 

It is what City are doing, although they might have a bit more running in the base of their midfield like...

[stressederic]

Have we actually won at Stoke in the league since they were promoted?
