Aquilani won't start obviously. I susepct Insua will come back in for Aurelio. Not really sure if Riera deserves another game after that effort Last night, but he'll probably get the benefit of the doubt. Can't see him risking Torres, stick him on the bench. And then don't use him.

Tevez's baby is in intensive care in Argentina and will not be available as City have granted him compassionate leave.

I'm sure it'll turn out to be Ferguson's fault.
 
Ha.

I watched bits of their game at Stoke. Santa Cruz was fucking rubbish. No doubt he'll bang in a hat-trick on the weekend now.
 
Torres not fit enough to make the squad.

Rumours of Bellamy and Mancini having a "bust-up".

They *still* cannot defend.

Totally winnable game.

Hasn't tevez been on compassionate leave two or three times already?

Don't know.

Has he used all his "compassionate leave" vouchers ?

I agree Themn, they're beatable. Their back four's ropey. Unfortunately we don't have much firepower to get at them properly.

This team is fine but we need N'gog with a partner I think - so I'd put Kuyt with N'gog ...

Put whoever on the right and try Gerrrard with Mascherano in the middle.

Bet you all the money in the world Lucas plays.
 
Vieira is out of the game aswell.

Rumours of a dressing room unrest because of Mancinis methods.

Degen and Babel to come in on the wings if our chronic lack of pace becomes an issue and Torres to come in for N'gog if and when he looks completely out of his depth. I also wouldn't object to Dani getting another look in either but I wouldn't expect that to happen.

I know, and that means we have a 5% chance we'll get an assist from one of our central midfielders ...

Translation: We need to hope and pray that Kuyt/Gerrard/Ngog can create enough to win the game, or we'll draw.

That bet is void.

You won't get access to my piggy bank if he by some odd reason shouldn't start for one.

I'm amazed you could tell with your cock in your hand.

As for our team, I'm pretty sure Riera won't play, given the way Rafa's treated him lately plus his performance last night (I didn't see the game, but I've gathered he was shit). Is Yossi fit yet? If so, I'd start with him. If not, it'll be Maxi or Babel on the left.

Rafa's team (not mine):

Reina

Carra - Skrtel - Agger - Insua

Lucas - Mascherano

Kuyt - Gerrard - Maxi

Wash


That team is horribly narrow, but I think it's how we'll play. And I think it'll finish as a draw.
 
Can I just add that I thought we looked very composed at the back last night. I know it wasn't exactly Barcelona we were playing but still, Skrtel and Agger should take a lot from it in terms of confidence at least. Probably their first cleansheet together.

Didn't these Romanians btw draw at the Bridge last year? Or was it at home?

Anyways I can see us win at Citeh. We were slightly unlucky not to get soemthing from Emirates and I reckon we'll make amends come the weekend.

Gerrard will score. Babel could too.
 
[quote author=Ryan link=topic=38964.msg1056444#msg1056444 date=1266567431]
Lucas will play Del.
[/quote]

Of course he will. Have I missed the point? I thought we were posting our teams? Or are we just second guessing Rafa's? In which case it'll be your team, possibly with Maxi coming in for Riera.

Which is fucking depressing.

At what, Santa Cruz's attractivenessness?

Google image him. I swear to God there's not one ugly picture of that man *anywhere*.

The first one that comes up is a thumbnail of him with hsi top off and shoulders folded down slightly. I was too scared to open it fully in case I ended.

If he had any bollocks, he'd play that team. It would win. He hasn't, so he'll play Lucarse and probably Insewer. And we won't win.
 
Oh Ryan, you do say the nicest things.

Pacheco away to Man City. Right.

Barry, De Jong, Toure, Lescott and Richards would probably recognise it's his first game and go easy on him.

Great idea.
