Or draw' ha ha. Isn't it great to be this busy? Come on City!!!!!

Just read a couple of reports that state the dates are 6th and 20th Jan.

We will see what the "official" dates are when they appear on the OS.

The comp runs from 10 and 31 January 2010 but players can be called up 10 days before it starts so we are likely to lose them from the 01 January. I expect Ivory Coast to go all the way but Togo should get knocked out earlier.

To be honest Nedum for Toure would not make any difference as there is nothing between them from what I've seen this season. Adebayor will be a big lose though as he holds the ball up and brings Bellamy and Tevez into the game very well.

Bollox and your posts come hand in hand. Unfortunately in reply threads I have the misfortune to stumble across them. Pity.

Good point HOW DO WE REPLACE ADE? RSC is not exactly the fans favourite at the moment but Hughes obviously trusts him so this is gonna be his time to shine, if he doesnt Hughes and RSC coud both be out.

Personally I think Bellamy and Tevez down the middle should be enough against most opponents.

Bollocks. Working for the away leg. There is gonna have to be some jiggery pokery for this one. It's a must.
