All this City frustration is BRILLIANT. Exactly what we wanted to do. If only we had some more penetration and better wing play. Ramires has been shite every time he's gone forward. Three or four times he got into amazing positions but pathetic control and bad choices let him down Bosingwa ugh. Meireles has been rubbish too. I'd keep things exactly the same for now. Bring on Sturridge for Meireles at the 60/65th minute mark if it's still 0-0

Thanks! Know what you mean lol if we lose I get so depressed that I can't think about anything else

I screwed up my A Levels a couple of years back lol. What subjects are you taking??

lol! The course lasts the whole year, so we've been done with the syllabus for a couple of months now! Plus I'm doing part-time studies

Wise advice as always

haha you're three hours ahead of me. It sucks living on this side of the world!

I would! but it's an important revision class and my exams are in 6 weeks

Bosingwa is on the bench... but maybe it's not right to classify him as a 'defender'

Bench: Turnbull, Essien, Malouda, Kalou, Bosingwa, Drogba, Sturridge

City's team: Hart, Richards, Zabaleta, Clichy, K.Toure, Balotelli, Nasri, Silva, de Jong, Y.Toure, Aguero.

Drogba's not in the team edit: oh, do you mean later on with DD coming on as a sub?

On paper I think this is a good move. Drogba is more suited for the Spurs game on Saturday and we're going to be playing on the counter today so Torres would be better for that Of course, this could all backfire and Torres could flop completely

Surprised by that!! I know Di Matteo talked about it in the pre-match interview but I assumed that was just to keep things confusing. This is a big big call. Hope Torres repays the faith shown by RDM

RT @SamWallaceIndy: Torres starts for #CFC tonight

Singapore

Less than 2 hours to go! So nervous! I have an early class at 8 so since the game will end at 6am (my time), I won't get to sleep at all tonight. Hope we get a positive result or I won't be able to focus at all!

Welcome!!

Okay so now we have our scapegoat if things don't go well. Doesn't have to be Meireles/Kalou/Malouda this time! I suggest we ban Alex if we lose

Thought you knew! They tied the knot 3 or 4 weeks ago!

They've gone mad with these cup runs. I won't be able to take it if they win the fa cup as well I was away for a few years. Then came back and read the posts here for a couple of months before registering the new account. Yeah we've sorta lost contact but I have her on facebook and I sent her an email when I saw her update about getting married!

I try but it's harder now that Queen Kenny is their manager They've reached new levels of delusion (didn't think that was possible) with Charlie Xavi Adam, Andy Villa Carroll and Jordan Iniesta Henderson in their team - and not forgetting that racist mong that they're all devoted to

I'm sure Di Matteo had some words with him after Sunday's game. His "selfishness" was more noticeable than usual and some of the other players were clearly frustrated by him - not to mention the fans were as well - so curious to see how he performs in the next few games.

yep!

According to mellis' agent, he wasn't sacked but his contract was mutually terminated
