Manchester City (a) Post Match Thoughts: Big game Nasri caps another Fab showing

  There is a reason why Arsene Wenger and the coaching staff have had faith in our Polish stopper. There is a reason why after mistake after mistake he has been kept in the first team squad. There is a reason why Lukasz has statistically the best goalkeeping reflexes at the club. He has suffered from a lack of confidence and a lack of a run of games and that has been the most difficult hurdle to overcome. He seems to have overcome both of those problems now. He is playing games and looks full of self belief

Manchester City (a) Thoughts & Predictions: Rotation could be right and not De Jong

The mercurial Russian has been playing somewhat under the radar this season, scoring five goals and creating goal scoring opportunities for fun. Yet you feel there is plenty to come from him. After being replaced with twenty minutes to go against Birmingham last Saturday then only playing for the last 18 on Tuesday you would feel that he has sufficient energy in his legs to give 100% when the kick off starts at 4pm

West Brom (a) – Thoughts & Predicted Line Up: Rotation, Youthful Defenders & Away Form

Cesc happy but nothing’s changed, Clichy & JET needs a change

 

JET was once again brushing past the opposition with both skill and strength. His third was a delightful clipped curling effort beyond the outstretched dive of the keeper. Reserve level looks a little silly for Jay right now. With so many forward players ahead of him in the first team right now, the logical thing seems like sending him on loan, perhaps that will happen but maybe it would happen after our Carling Cup game with Newcastle United

Cesc to remain a Gooner? & Early City stuff

Rosicky is correct in saying that we need to be as clinical in the Premier League as we are in the Champions League. As it was at Stamford Bridge, we will not be afforded the luxury of missed chances. No more point blank headers sailing over the bar please lads. The difference from the Chelsea game will be in the probable inclusion of a certain Mr Fabregas. If the ball falls to him inside the penalty area then I expect him to have calmness and conviction to stick his chance away. His obvious vision and execution of pass will hopefully allow us to open up City some more

Why fight if we cannot win?, squad strength & Wilshere

  I suppose when agenda's have been set and the content can be flipped back and forth then there is just no point trying to fight it or in my case, get annoyed by people like Trevor Francis saying what is wrong with a central defender lashing out his arm in our strikers head. The only way to respond is to dust ourselves down and not get involved in what is being said and written about us and just get on with our jobs. Our as in the players but having said that the supporters have their own role to play. Support is clearly limited to our own fans so we need to give the players all that they need.
