***city v leicester official match thread***

[Douglas Higginbottom]

Navas against a side like this - good selection IMO. I've always thought he was the better option against a bus-parking team.

I like this team. Plus Mangala and Fernando tend to work well together for obvious reasons. And glad to see Pellers not backing down before the pundit onslaught and packing the midfield/one up top against a team that will probably have everyone behind the ball all night.

Not sure Leicester will try to park the bus.They like to attack and have pace so I expect them to cause us problems and they are due some luck in front of goal. We just need to get it right, have plenty of energy and take the chances which are bound to come.

I wonder what the chances are that Vinnie went to MP and offered to stand down?

Leicester will not park the bus. They are more ike burnley than sunderland.

I sure hope they do attack. I actually thought Leicester would be pretty decent bet to stay up this year after watching them a bit last spring. I'm rather surprised they sit where they do on the table.

if he was the man you think he is he would have fallen on his sword a couple of weeks ago

go citizens!

Buying Mangala and Fernando is fuckng awful......playing them is even worse. San Miguel not going down well now.

I have no respect for anything that a man that drinks that piss has to say

You should respect anyone who drinks San Miguel on a Wednesday ffs. The alternative is carling that has been sat on the fucking shelf for 20 mins

We don't need to wait for the final whistle to find out who the fucktard is. Apparently in your world there are days of the week which are appropriate for shit beers.

I rest my case your honor.

And BTW don't threaten me like some pussy. We're having a conversation here tough guy. Don't stoop to "meet me at the final whistle" bollox. Unless yr coming to FL to buy me a real pint and not something like San Miguel and we can discuss things like gentlemen.

Cheers

blue on blue action is so hot right now!

[mr_nool]

Really hope we bounce back from Sunday.
And that I find a decent stream. Ripped off by my tv-provider again, who has gone for the scum game + the German and Italian cup.

[mr_nool]

Almost scored from a corner. Wow!

[Sideshow Bob]

wtf bony put something on target from a corner??

[Dameerto]

Instead of pretending that they do work on set pieces it looks like they actually have been working on them for a week or two.

[Sideshow Bob]

well we've made it past 7 and a half minutes and we're still bossing it...

[Sideshow Bob]

fernando playing the pivot like a boss.

[mr_nool]

Was just goin to say that Bony is defending well on set pieces, but fuck me, he got very lucky there.

[ruralblue]

Pom pom pom, ba ba ba ba bong. Bom bom pa pa ba ba ba bong ;-)

[Cit.revenge]

well that was a pen

He was rash with the contact but the guy went down as though he'd been pushed while the actual contact itself was more of a pull - thankfully the ref saw it too.

[Moonchesteri]

Oh dear. It's gonna be one of those nights isn't it

[Cocacolajojo1]

Is it just me or has Hart been reading Bridge's Right Foot's post and practiced about when and how to come off his line? He is better right or am I just pretending?
