Hi All

I just hope we can give them a game this year like we have in the past with worse teams than we have now. Apart from last year we have always been able to be up for it against UTD, iam hopeful we can beat them.

 

[Cumzilla]

all the digs at SGE and city from SAF in his pre-match interviews make me convince that city has a 60-70% chance of getting a good result against them today, or perhaps some of his quotes are just his famous mind games again...

From the mirror

Sven's been lucky so far..

From the times

‘He’s another City manager, and that’s all’

From the times

Ferguson manages to pull all the fancy strokes with derby taunts

From the sun

ALEX FERGUSON angers Sven Goran Eriksson by calling Manchester City a bunch of kickers

 

[colster]

Who cares Man City top of the league after beating UTD all great while it lasts.

Happy days

 

[ghimpheng]

his team lose and now claim that city is bunch of kickers ?

i never saw a hint that city is kicking them like mad in 2nd half i tot it is a fair physical game

and that ref did a good job in controlling the game

what nonsense is SAF talking about ?

 

[hiei02]

again, dumb ass. if you bother to read, fergie said that before the match.

sorry to mess up your thread, man city fans~

 

[ghimpheng]

mind games as usual by SAF

didn't work in his way doh

even if he didnt bother to read, the words in bold already stated that, anyway coming back to the match, dont particularly enjoy this type of smash-and-grab raid, its exactly a carbon copy of the match against arsenal at home last season, but a win is still win, especially against their bitter rival. I will enjoy being at the top of the league while it lasts, most of the new managers always start with a honeymoon period and then fade almost immediately once bad results come. Of course a fairytale ending would be very nice, as it had not happen in the EPL for dunno how many donkey years...

Sven is tops for Wenger

By GORDON SMART
August 24, 2007

ARSENAL boss Arsene Wenger has heaped praise on Sven Goran Eriksson and backed his stance of snubbing British players in the transfer market.

The pair will face each other for the first time in the Premier League tomorrow when the Swede takes his table-toppers to the Emirates Stadium.

Wenger has also always refused to be held to ransom over inflated asking prices for our home-based stars.

The Frenchman said: “Top-class English players simply aren’t available.

“When you talk about top-class English players you talk about Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, John Terry, Wayne Rooney — they are all at big clubs who do not need to sell.

“So then if you want to buy that equivalent international quality, you go for someone like Elano for six or seven million — you could not get an equivalent English player for that much.

“I’m sure Eriksson will be a success, he is a great manager.

“You could talk about Man City for half an hour and still not cover all their new signings. They have bought very well.”

Arsene Wenger is smart not to make the same mistake like fergie did by taunting SGE and city before the derby last week. So i think this will be a hard match, if city can hold or lead arsenal by half time, there is 60-70% chance of getting a decent result as arsenal has struggled to impose themselves, especially in the 1st half, ever since moving to their new stadium.

bluemoonnnnn, you saw me standing alone, without a dream in my heart, without a love of my own......

If the new players can get stuck in and battle they have more than a chance. Everybody knows arsenal don`t like when it gets physical or as wenger puts it violence. Until arsenal can win ugly they wont win the league again, great on the eye when left to play their game but who`s baffed enough to sit back and let them play.

great saved by kasper although city lost this match..

FA woo Kasper
By Mike Walters 23/08/2007

Cheeky England are investigating Kasper Schmeichel's international status to see if he can ditch Denmark.

Schmeichel has got rave reviews for his three clean sheets in Manchester City's 100 per cent start.

And the case for tempting the son of Denmark and Manchester United great Peter to forsake the Danes was strengthened by last night's horror shows by Paul Robinson and David James.

Thai to join City
Suree to become first Thai in Premier League
By Andrew Scurr Last updated: 30th August 2007

Thailand international defender Suree Sukha is set to join Manchester City.

Suree was one of three Thai players invited for a two-week trial at City by new owner Thaksin Shinawatra last month.

Kiatprawut Saiwaeo and Teerasil Dangda also linked up with Sven Goran Eriksson's side.

Suree impressed the most out of the three players and was chosen to join City on a permanent deal.

"Suree will be the first Thai player to play in the Premier League," Shinawatra's lawyer, Noppadon Pattama, announced.

"His work permit is now being processed."

hows this player for those who follow asia soccer regularly? basically, i think its just a buying to 'give face' to the owner cos if all 3 are sent back, it will not look very nice

Preview: City v Aston Villa

14/ 9/2007


CITY defender Richard Dunne will miss the Barclays Premier League match against Aston Villa on Sunday as he is suspended.

Manager Sven-Goran Eriksson has indicated that Vedran Corluka will partner Micah Richards in Dunne's absence with Nedum Onuoha likely to return at right-back.

Brazilian midfielder Geovanni is expected to be available after returning to training following a calf injury but Michael Johnson is struggling to recover from a groin injury.

Aston Villa’s new signing Curtis Davies is included in the squad for Sunday’s game.

Davies, initially signed on loan from West Brom, missed the victory over Chelsea a fortnight ago with a hamstring problem.

Striker John Carew is the only injury concern after aggravating a groin injury while on duty for Norway in midweek.

Villa manager Martin O’Neill admits Carew would have struggled to play the City game had it been on Saturday but is hoping the additional 24 hours will allow him time to recover.

Manchester City (from): Schmeichel, Hart, Corluka, Onuoha, Sun, Richards, Garrido, Ball, Fernandes, Geovanni, Hamann, Johnson, Ireland, Petrov, Elano, Mpenza, Bianchi, Vassell, Samaras.

Aston Villa (from): Carson, Sorensen, Taylor, Mellberg, Gardner, Laursen, Davies, Knight, Cahill, Bouma, Agbonlahor, Barry, Reo-Coker, Young, Petrov, Osbourne, Carew, Moore.

Last season: City 0 Aston Villa 2

Key opponent: Gareth Barry - Midfielder will be on a high after his England exploits

Prediction: City 2 Aston Villa 1 - The Blues should get back to winning ways with home advantage

http://www.manchestereveningnews.co...ter_city/s/1016490_preview_city_v_aston_villa

hope for city to get back to winning ways again tonight after 2 successive 1-0 away defeats against 2 sides which not many teams will win at their place this season....
