man city v NEWCASTLE UNITED, etihad sat 20th Jan 2018 KO5.30pm Live on BT

[adios 717]

At first glance, Diamé in an advanced position looks like suicide but I guess he's going to stay compact, hoof it for knockdowns or a Shelvey Hollywood ball for the counter?

[Howmanheyman 26581]

Surprised he's starting Shelvey for this game unless he expects his other midfielders to pick up his lack of work rate. We haven't had a player sent off for a good while so think today's the day. Hope we give BT viewers a fucking stinking game to watch and sneak a point or three. (Aye, ah knaa. )

Manquillo vs Sane

iirc Shelvey and Diame started in central midfield last time, I think probably the case again today, similar to last time but with Hayden in there too to shut down de bruyne a little more?

 

If we ever counter get Atsu and Murphy running and that's about the plan I reckon.

Could be worse, could you imagine Colo and Williamson out there?

I'd be quite happy to see a 4-5-1 with Hayden behind Shelvey and Diamé as opposed to Diamé off Joselu so I hope you're right.

Happy to take a 5-0 loss then.  Just so we stay above Brighton until next weekend - at least.

[TheGingerQuiff 2412]

What a fucking set of fannies. These will be lucky if they are still in it by half time. Murphy hat trick.

[ewerk 26109]

We’re 33/1 for the win with Ladbrokes.

[Howmanheyman 26581]

They're shiting themselves, man. 

[Andrew 4180]

Disappointed so far, we'd had a shot on target by now last time we played them.

[wykikitoon 16462]

Lot of empty seats

To cold for the glory hunters ? 

[wykikitoon 16462]

FFS Joselu loses the ball and fucking sulks instead of getting it back
