[Archived] Manchester City v Rovers Preview 25/2/2012

[Jimmy612]

My team for tomorrow

Robinson

Dann, Givet, Hanley, Olsson,

N'Zonzi

Pederson, Formica, Hoilett,

Rochina,

Yakubu

You're not serious? City are at their absolute strongest just behind the strikers e.g. Silva, Toure, Nasri and god knows who else basically create everything. That midfield does not have a tackle in it!! Except maybe N'Zonzi. We play this and we would get ripped apart.

[Mercer]

My team for tomorrow

Robinson

Dann, Givet, Hanley, Olsson,

N'Zonzi

Pederson, Formica, Hoilett,

Rochina,

Yakubu

Givet still has 2 matches of his suspension left !!!

Does anyone know how many tickets we've sold ? Would have thought that being on TV and with tickets at £38, we'll be unlikely to have more than 200 there.

I had a dream we went all guns blazing at them and caught them off guard!!!

[Amo]

Why is it people still struggle to spell player's names? Especially ones who've been here eight years?

Just over 450 apparently. We must be mad!!!

[riverside returns]

On way up from Cornwall for it. Must be mad!

We are the rovers!

[Guest Rovers4Good]

Gonna get tubbed all over the park and it's not going to be pretty

5-1 City.

[roverandout]

at guy at my work think we will beat them, beat villa and beat swansea away, deluded fool

Didn't know you worked at Rovers with Kean !

[Jcromptonbrfc]

Anthony O'Connor makes first team squad for the game. Must be daunting knowing that he could feature in a small part of tomorrow's game.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

My team for tomorrow

Robinson

Dann, Givet, Hanley, Olsson,

N'Zonzi

Pedersen, Formica, Hoilett,

Rochina,

Yakubu

[/quWhat makes you think a struggling centre half ( Dann ) can play at right back ?ote]

[G Somerset Rover]

Givet's suspended!

I reckon we're set for an absolute drubbing tonight. Silva, Aguero and co will rip Dann and Hanley a new one.

By at least 4 goals.

[Stuart]

Thank goodness for match day! Right, who've we got?

Oh.

Oh dear.

[Mercer]

Sun is shining and 3 'fun' bets on: insurance is £50 on City win @ 1/5 , and £5 gambles on City to win 7-1 @ 100/1 & 10-0 @ 500/1.

Not too confident about our chances today !

[RoyRover]

We are going to get stuffed 4-0.

[joey_big_nose]

Losing Samba like that is pretty shattering.

--------------Robinson

---Orr----Dann----Hanley----Olsson

-----------Lowe------Nzonzi

Pedersen---Formica----Hoilett

-----------------Yakubu

Subs:- Bunn, Henley, Petrovic, Rochina/Dunn, Vukcevic, Modeste, Goodwillie

As others say anything less than a tubbing will be remarkable.

So, um, are we down to three central defenders?! Anderson might end up getting a game after all if we get a couple of injuries/suspensions

Anthony O'Connor makes first team squad for the game. Must be daunting knowing that he could feature in a small part of tomorrow's game.

Who?!

Well at least it's not Myles....

Lowe wont be there as suspended for City & Villa games !!

Would not trust that defence against Accie never mind City.

Will get torn to shreds !!!

[Devon Rover]

Man City to win 5-1. Almost certain of a heavy loss but for some reason I'm still planning on watching it on TV. Holding onto very, very slim hope of a shock result.

[Andy]

Taking up the offer of free tickets today, so will be with the City fans.

Can't see any further than a City win, whether it's by a large or small margin.

They are outstanding at home and we...have Kean.

Ageuro's gotta be a good bet to score first.

[Robbo]

4:30am kick off here. I reckon I'll just have a decent nights kip and find out how many we've lost by in the morning.

[J*B]

Aguero score anytime 4/1 $10

City -3 11/4 $20

[hesfromburn]

Are squad is lacking so much experience its untrue. also lowe and givet are out!

Id go for

Robinson

Orr,dann,hanley,olsson

n'zonzi

Hoilett,dunn,peds,simon/rochina

Yakubu

[MarkBRFC]

Couldnt go to this in the end due to many things, managed to juggle a few things so can at least catch it on the box though. Just hope we put in a Old Trafford performance and not a Emirates one.
