They're in fairly bad form at the moment - hopefully that will play on their minds. I think we could take them with their in-form last season's first eleven though. We got dis.

All the more reason for not shipping Edin out.

Hahaha you are still not come with terms of selling Dzeko . Mate City is playing great and even when not they win. Edin want to leave so you can't blame them for selling him . It s kind thank you from a club. I m glad for the kid , Ihenacho . Hes having a bit trouble with injury but if that goes well I think he will be a star.

I don't know if MP will do this, but it's definitely a possibility. This is what I hope he does. It's no reflection on Bony, who I like, but I want an extra body inidfield.

Agreed , Bony can make a real name for himself tomorrow night . Time for him to step up to the plate as they say , we are top of the league without any of our strikers yet hitting top form .

Pellers has said Nasri has a slight knock so I'd just leave the coward out for tomorrow and stick with Bony up front with Silva, Sterling, and KDB behind him.

Nasri was hacked down by a red-card worthy tackle from Hangeland!
City was incredibly lucky that Nasri wasn't thoroughly eliminated like Aguero... Especially since it was Nasri's shot on target that ultimately led to Iheanacho's goal! Would you really have deprived City of that amazing win, due to your own personal prejudices towards Nasri?!

The only cowards that I saw on that pitch were Dann & Hangeland, who couldn't cope with a full-strength City, so they made sure to remove our best players.

Can I ask why you do that constantly? It's not just this time but I've seen you do it to plenty of posters, one has pulled you up on it previously, but you're still doing it.

A poster makes a comment and you'll go back to one match, whether it be the last match we played or one from over five years ago where that player, in your opinion, had a decent match forgetting about the 50+ matches they've previously played. I think if you ask City fans if Nasri is a coward most will say yes because they can give you a number of occasions when he say turned his back on a free kick or did his best Nigel Clough impression in most matches he's played. Granted he has had some decent matches, but can you not count them on one hand?

In my opinion Nasri slows our play down too much and we're better as a team when we're going full pelt at defences not giving them time to get 10 men behind the ball. Add that to that fact that generally when the going gets tough Nasri does his invisible man impression. I'd rather have a front four of Bony, KDB, Silva, and Sterling tonight. Not because I detest Nasri but because I think with the slow pace of the Italian game Juve won't know what's hit them with that speed. They won't be used to it. And our defence is strong enough this season to cope imo with taking that risk.

Just my opinion.

Yes Nasri has let us down several times over the years and is soft as fuck on occasions but he is a class player when in the right frame of mind and to his credit put in a proper shift at Selhurst last Saturday when the squad was down to the bare bones in a tough game . There was a time when if he was on the receiving end of a bad tackle like the one from Hangeland he would have downed tools ............... he kept going and set up the last minute winner , full credit to him !

I take it you didn't read the above? The isn't whether he played well on Saturday or not, because he obviously did. It's about whether he's worth the risk tonight.

Can we rely on him in an important match tonight? Is it worth the gamble. When Dzeko was here he was similar. If he had his head in the right place he'd get us some important goals. But half the time he looked like he wasn't interested.

Nearly every comment you have ever made about Samir Nasri, was to either call him, "wank" or a "coward." So, yes, you obviously DO detest Nasri & you would probably just clone Kolarov & replace the entire team with Aleks, in every position!

On the MOTM vs Watford thread, most of us that had bothered to watch the entire match, pointed out that you had wrongly called Nasri's performance, "wank," despite your not having watched the full match!

I'm not sure why you're now surprised at being challenged, when you're constantly trashing players, without actually watching their performances in full matches.

I guess some people find it hard to get my humour. 'I didn't watch the match but Nasri was wank' - it really doesn't get more tongue in cheek than that. I can't really help you though if you can't understand that. That's your problem not mine.

You've still missed the point though if you're quoting five words out of all I wrote, including missing the part out why I don't want him to start tonight.

Yep read it pal . I would deffo start him tonight , another stunning strike like the one v Roma away last season in the CL would be good tonight for sure ! ;-)

I singled that phrase out, in just the same blinkered way that you dismiss any positive contribution Nasri has ever made, because you very clearly dislike like him!

So, with your current player selections, Nasri would have been left out of the Dec, 2014 match against Roma, in which Samir scored a 60th minute goal? That goal from Nasri, helped rescue the match & allowed City to progress out of the group stage.
Instead, you were probably more pissed off that Kolarov didn't replace Nasri, until the 89th minute...

Nasri played well saturday pretty near mom, but over the years hes gone missing in most games doesnt track back and overall pretty average, ship him out and bring in isco and we would have a world class player in a position that would suit him.

I can't tell if you're being serious now or just acting the clown, but I'll humour you one more time.

"So, with your current player selections, Nasri would have been left out of the Dec, 2014 match against Roma," - WhyAlwaysMe

Well you obviously haven't read what I put above did you? Bony, KDB, Silva, and Sterling. They're my current player selections. We didn't have three of those players in Dec 14.

"I singled that phrase out, in just the same blinkered way that you dismiss any positive contribution Nasri has ever made, because you very clearly dislike like him!" - WhyAlwaysMe

I've just said in a post above that Nasri had a good game on Saturday. Again, you either can't read - which is fair enough because not everyone can have a good education. It's nothing to be ashamed of and might explain why you like pictures a lot.
Or you just have a gripe with me personally, which is also fine. I have a season ticket and will be there on Saturday if you want to have a few beers before the match?
