finally a serious comment

 

F Bar cus that where I went before ManU game

 

tracing my steps carefully

 

I'm all about the serious comment mate.

 

Schmeichel

 

Simpson - Morgan - Wasilewski - Konchesky

 

Cambiasso

 

Drinkwater - James

 

Mahrez - Ulloa - Knockaert

 

I would play this too (serious). If we lose with it which we will anyway so be it, but it would be interesting to see how this team would do.

a few weeks ago I would have said Knocky u serious

but right now I say why not - give him a chance ... again

drinky - love to know if he is back in form - wanna see him play

IF by some miracle we get anything from this game, it will be purely down to Man City playing awfully and lady luck well and truly sitting on our face. I will be furious if we get trounced because of another clueless unacceptable display. If we are going to lose, I want to see us going down with a fight.

We have looked an utter shambles and we are making ourselves look like an embarrassment to other clubs. The defending in the QPR game verged on Sunday league. I don't mind losing to Man City, but I want to see a performance worth being proud of. No rolling over and making stupid mistakes.

I think this might be the week to play albrighton and knockeart as mahrez and schlupp have been woeful past few weeks. And also start vardy as he will trouble there defence by running in behind man citys back line and cause problems. Have got to play cambiasso as a defensive midfielder as his positioning and ball distribution out to the wings will be vital.

de laet...moore...morgan...knocheskey

............drinkwater...james

albrighton...........................knockeart

.......................vardy

 

I would have proberly have said put upson in for this match but he has just said that he is still mot fit enough for a first team start so went with moore for abit of speed in the centre of defence as I think we have looked very slow and have been caught out with counter attacks quite a bit this season.

 

as long as we don't give away any free kicks or corners then we should be alright as we cant defend them and man city have got a number of class set piece artists.

I can't be the only person who thinks Cambiasso's defensive contributions have been the worst part of his game? People just wander past him. A massive problem during the Aston Villa match is that we don't seem to have anybody capable of winning back possession. We gifted the ball to them repeatedly and only got it back when they made a mistake.

'Mahrez has been woeful these past few weeks'.

What games have you been watching? If it wasn't for him we wouldn't have even scored against Villa or Liverpool. For me he's been the only player who looks capable of creating a goal when he's on the ball. Lose him, and we lose any attacking threat

mahrez has been woeful yeah he has been an option going forward but he has done naff all to help out defensively at least albrighton would do that. every game I have seen mahrez play this season he has got the ball tried too much fancy stuff and lost the ball instantly and not ever tried to win the ball back or track back just sits down and waves his arms about at the ref.

He's a winger so his primary job is to create chances and attack his full back. I have never ever seen him sit down and wave his arms about at the ref. What are you talking about?

Another case of a supporter believing another player (Albrighton) is a better option despite the fact he's barely played for us. What are you judging it on?!

Posted

i never said he was better what I said was it might be the week. and when albrighton was playing pre season he was great and linked up well with de laet and when has come on in premier league games he has done defensive work aswell as attack. I just think it would be a good game for albrighton to start in and bring mahrez on for final half hour if things not working out.

Lost this easily. Why?

 

 

Jon Moss refereeing this. Those who dont remember, Forest away August 2011. Kasper double yellow and disgusting handball decision. Really wank ref

 

That was the one where Kasper got booked for throwing the ball back up to the halfway line after conceding right? Barmy decision.

Posted

With Man City playing 3 days previous they are bound to be physically and mentally tired, I think it's important that we try and get at them from the off and create an atmosphere. Too often recently we've let teams have early possession.

 

If NP goes with 442 for this game you'll easily be able to spot me in the stand, as I'll be the one with his scarf over his eyes and his head in his hands.

He's not even decent, just the best of a bad situation.

You mean the same one who did a very decent job at the start of the season and was very unfortunate to be taken out of the side

Posted

We've done pretty well against the big teams so far this season. I reckon Pearson will use the same system as Chelsea away and Arsenal at home. Defend deep and get Schlupp and Mahrez forward quickly on the counter.

 

However, we will probably lose 0-2

Posted

Let's dig in. Knocky, Schlupp and Nugent pressing quickly. Hammond and Cambo sittting providing cover

 

 

Schmeichel

 

Simpson - Morgan - Wasilewski - Konchesky

 

Knockaert- Hammond - Cambiasso- Schlupp

 

 Nugent

 

 Ulloa
