terrible lineup for citeh - nasri is in it. haha...not so bad i guess...i get to watch Bendtner miss the net by 14 feet again....this time it won't be so upsetting to watch. Odds dropped for city - i guess the bettors don't like the lineup or bookies trying to get sunderland money...i dont like figuring out line movement anymore. They beat QPR and Blackburn are all of a sudden people are high on sunderland....go figure
Any thoughts on 2ndyour half cocktails? I got under for game primarily cause silva left out. I got man city -1 -135. Under 1.5 -135. Yoou think sillva will come on or get rested all day?
if arsenal can beat fulham tomorrow we'd be 6 points back of first....although i have zero hope just the idea this year we can win would make my year....i think mancini (as you point out) better figure out you don't win with 4-5 midfielders (esp a guy named nasri) and yaya up front with anyone. I get resting players when it comes to the stupid FA winter non-break but not vs sunderland that was always going to be tough to crack. Nasri is awful ---- going to be tough vs fulham and utd/city will have a game in hand but six points...haha.....
i do wish we didn't do this silly henry move but i guess a swan song is more than deserved...
i know cocktail is more a shot in the dark FT score for fun/cash guy but i find it hard to ignore city -0.25 at -140 at pinnacle. Perhaps you lose 1/2 your wager on a draw but i do think citeh lose outright? You have to think Mancini will let them play the proper way to get a much needed result at home against Liverpool. Balotelli might be back and as much as i think he is a chump he is still a good striker. I might play the -0.25 or take a shot but i would be interested in cocktails thinking esp with the lineup. GL either way - my dream is over so city might as well take it from united and now tottenham
hart, richards, kolo toure, kompany, clichy, yaya, barry, silva, milner, aguero, and dzeko.........nasri not starting i guess they want to win today. No Saurez for liverpool
Sorry so late gents W/ a new baby in tow, things are at a snails pace lately...took over 2' @plus 115 fer a nickel n put a hundy on 3-2 city@22-1 odds,,,teams look very open n offensive minded
utd/ have lost focus it seems...i am no ignorant sky blue supporter...i realize the goal scoring prowess they still possess...i also realize their defense and goalkeeping is atrocious...of course they are not a bottom of the table club but lately they have shown glimpses of one...especially on the backline...the toure bros. are gone...not the end of the world...especially since yaya has become more of an offensive midfielder(and we have plenty of that)nigel and milner will slide in for yaya....lescott will come back for kolo...bitch nani and shrek will get their chances tomorrow no doubt they will find one behind hart at some point i believe..and i have to believe the sky blue attack will undoubtedly find the back of the net more than once....i really hope this is our attack tomorrow, though i know it won't...(hart-kompany-lescott-kolarov-micha-adam-nigel-milner-silva-supermario-dzeko)...unfortunately i don't see 'the wop' putting mario/dzeko together...he just doesn't appreciate that combo....they both possess power and height that you don't get when you have all 3 smurfs(silva-nasri-aguero) out there on the pitch at the same time...also don't think kolarov will get the not over clichy but i hope he does....his spot kicks could be of use tomorrow against whichever shaky keeper the red side put out..that being said with all the bullshit i just wrote....i am taking the over 2' -107 for the limit($2500) hitting the sack be back with line-ups when i rise
I think your reasons for taking the over are justified. I see this match ending 2-1 or 3-1 for the Citizens. Rooney has to step it up and this is as good a match to do it. Plus as you said Sir Alex is losing his patience with the blunders his keeper De Gea has made the last two losses. I'm sure City know that he has been indecisive and can't manage crosses well.
Now I expect (but you are the Inside Man) Yaya Toure to play in contrast to what has been said. This match may start slow but it should finish strong. I will side with City to beat the Red Devils again.
On a final note: I definitely think City are a better squad now then they were in October when they CRUSHED Man U 6-1. As for Man U they are worse off today then they were in October (Fact). The only concern I have is that Man U care more about moving forward in the FA Cup than City do.
SO WHY THE LOW HANDICAP???Bollocks!!!City will dominate as a result of their strength and depth.
