Man City manager Manuel Pellegrini has ruled their captain, Vincent Kompany, out of Sunday's game at Stamford Bridge.

City fans must be shitting their pants!

[Jase 43,479]

All this laughing at City because Kompany is gonna miss Sunday's game is really gonna fall flat on our faces if we mess things up then..

[G.B. 100]

Must win game mainly at home... We haven't been good against City for the last few seasons.

Bonus no Tevez thank god.. he always put on his most special games verses us.. we can do this continue to make the bridge a fortress in the Premier League

[Magic Lamps 11,668]

Kompany was set to miss one month last week, so no wonder he won't be fit. I'd be even happier if Yaya Toure and Agüero would be out.

I am confident we can win this. It would be such a great victory and the first real confirmation of our title ambitions.

[Sheva. 5,373]

If Kompany was fit, he'd single-handedly mark Eto'o or Torres out of the game. Now we have a better chance of scoring, but doesn't really change anything when they have players like Toure, Nasri, Silva, Aguero and Negredo in attack.

Still a massively difficult game.

Kenneth Omerou trained with the first team today.

Not getting ahead of myself, but he might get a few minutes if we are winning by half time.

I'll chop of my left nut if that happens

Its Mourinho mate. You might want to take that back. But i'm really expecting him to get some minutes against Arsenal atleast.

We need to win to really state intent

[Kojo 4,676]

Only game of the season so far I'm not confident with, I'm not expecting a victory.

What do you mean "Its Mourinho mate", he is renowned for not playing youth, never mind against Man City or Arsenal. Omeruo will be training with the first team because he failed to get a loan deal and he's playing with the u21s while also training with the first team. Unless Cahill and Luiz both get injuries, then he won't be anywhere near the first team in those games.

Cech

Iva - Cahill - Terry - Cole

Ramires - Luiz

Willian - Oscar - Hazard

Torres

I'm surprised by the optimism here. I'll take a draw as victory, desperate to eat some humble pies though.

[Tomo 21,733]

Why are a fair few of you saying we will take a draw? We are the home team, they aren't as physical under Pellegrini and despite our overall record against City of late being shite, we have actually won 2 of our last 3 games against them at Stamford Bridge.

If we were at The Ethiad it would be a different story, but unless it's the 2nd leg of a tie when we won away or a match that secures us the title, i can never be happy with a draw at home.

[Special Juan 27,439]

Early goal for us and things really could get interesting.
