We've got to look at the bigger picture here though, we play 20th, 26th, 28th and the 1st, thats 4 games in 11 days, fucking crazy! We don't need to send the first teamers on a long journey to Italy in the freezing snow for a game that means nothing whatever the result with 4 games in 11 days following the game.

I'm looking at my bigger picture here and I'd be royally fucked off if I ended up watching a downgraded version of the team from last night. I'm not expecting a 1st XI by any stretch of the imagination but a little respect would not go amiss. I'd be cool with Wooders assessment and have our usual type team out for Juve, it would still be ace to come back and say we dicked Juve in their own backyard....regardless that they'll prollee stick a shit team out.

You're not looking at the bigger picture, you are looking at your personal picture. You don't want to go to Juventus and see a weak team and i can understand your point but you have to look at the bigger picture here and put the personal stuff to one side. What is the point in taking Silva, De Jong, Tevez, Hart ect away on a 8 hour round journey to sit for 90 mins on a freezing bench for a game that means nothing when they could be at home getting ready for a game that does mean something against Everton on the Monday.
I think you will be personally dissapointed as i don't think you will see any regulars in the squad at all.
I will enjoy the fact that i will be sat at hom, few beers, a nice chinese, watching us play Juventus in Europe and not really caring what the outcome is.

Yeah, you're probably right, why should I want a little return on my investment. Perhaps I should follow your lead.....I will enjoy the fact that i will be sat at hom, few beers, a nice chinese, watching us play Juventus in Europe and not really caring what the outcome is.
After all who gives a flying fuck if City win or lose?
FFS you cannot debate on here anymore, it's just one big ego clique.

Nah, not at all mate..... I appreciate you providing the voice of reason and I fully understand that we're not going to see a stellar team vs Juve. But, while I appreciate that I'm probably going to see a turd of a match I don't need a patronising polish of it thanks.
