ok...first off...mancini plans on putting out a full throttle team tomorrow..and doesn't plan on changing much come sunday v. newcastle either..the team he put out for the carling cup game midweek last week was filled w/2nd teamers and reserves...juve will get full attention...maybe viera gets a nod in the middle and maybe shay gets the goal duties...but don't quote me on either..come tomorrow will have a better view..mancini gets very cryptic in his interviews..the so called crooked, injured defense of city is tops in the premier league...yielding a low of 2 goals this campaign(0 in the europa league thus far)...juve can and will attack...their formation is yet to be determined tomorrow also...they do have a lil serie A game this weekend w/ INTER!!!....so where do we expect juve's head at...europa is not the champion's league...and the scudetto is way more important than the champion's league in my opinion..and i am sure juve's too..will wait on the teams tomorrow..but will have to back city@-160...u can say this a homer pick..and maybe partially...but i have to make this clearer in maybe american football terms as a "trap game" for juventus....having inter on the weekend..as opposed to newcastle for city is quite a difference...in terms of x's and o's...the backline and defensive midfield (yaya and de jong)will overcome the juve attack...'the apache'(tevez) has proven he can play up front alone(just wish he would stay up there and let the mids do their job and stop dropping far back)and will be a factor against a very vulnerable juve back line....back with the starting lineups 2moro...cheers
thanx mate...wish i followed my own advice in my writeup of yer inter game today..knew that eto'o and sneijder would be the factors and bremen would find the back of the net hard to come by...4-0 inter...good call on that over mate...but like i said..i hate playing the over only relying on one team to score..good on ya that inter did all the work for ya..cheers
i couldnt agree more! juve will not have their head in the game. this is a big derby for them this weekend. plus man city are virtualy unbeatable at home and juventus, much like all italian teams, are below average at best on the road. your onto something here and i will be playing it with you!
