Thanks very much

[sheblue]

Best team in the circumstances.

[bigblue]

Looks a bit shaky at CB but the front 4 of Silva, Nasri, Tevez, and Aguero should cause plenty of problems. Good to see Zabba captain too

[AG7]

LOL ... QPR Official Tweet: "To confirm it is correct that QPR have named two goalkeepers on the bench tonight vs Man City #QPRvMNC"

Why? What are they so afraid of? We don't even have Balotelli anymore ...

Wonder if Doug can weigh in on Nasti and his lack of training as of late...

I think the starting keeper is on a kamikaze mission to take out Aguero's knee with direct orders from slur to twitch. Hence still having a backup keeper once the 1st one gets sent off.

Garcia CB then?

Most likely & a sensible choice imo. He looked assured there v Stoke & although there was very little defending involved, I'd prefer that lineup to a back 3 of Zaba - Lescott - Clichy at this point & I don't think Rekik is ready for a start in the centre yet.

Nasti is ruled out until 3rd Feb 13 according to http://www.physioroom.com/news/english_ ... _table.php

Nasti is on our bench tonight ...

QPR XI: Cesar, Onuoha, Nelsen, Hill, Traore, Mbia, Derry, Fabio, Granero, Taarabt, Remy

Fuckers were saying Remy and Taarabt both out due to injury ... both are in!

[lets all have a disco]

Very attacking line up i can see this match being more open than a really open thing.

A bit Garciaesque that picture.

[phips]

Two keepers on the bench? Thats absurd.

I guess Nasti isn't fully fit and Mancini expects not to have to need him....

[TheReturnOfTheSpecialOne]

Lawro has tipped them to rob two points from us.
I think Nasri will step up to the plate tonight
