Wouldn't be surprised to see "after the lords mayor show" tonight, with City struggling to score many, maybe even a shock result on the cards.

11 changes and 1 down so far

Question is,

How many goals will City put past Wolves this week.

They play them twice in 4 days home n away.

Mate bought their supremecy at 1.6 over in £500.

Said he is going to continue buying it till he loses.

Someone just told me they were evens to score a total of 5 goals or more over the two games with Wolves.

Missed out all round not backing them in either of the last two games. :twisted:

DOn't think they will get 5 more. Wolves will have learnt from mistakes and probably shut up shop and go for a draw. 0-0 anyone?

did Man City get any penalties in pre-season? I'm looking for insight into who could be their PK taker when Tevez isn't around.

various websites say it goes Tev, Balo, Barry. Doesn't this suggest a good possibility of Dzeko being up there? For me that'd give him the extra push into must-own territory, although Tevez might be starting again soon.. (not in the Bosnian's place though, I don't think, but that's another question)

here's what football-lineups.com says about some of their histories
Dzeko scored two in 09/10 for Wolfsburg where Grafite was always first choice.
Aguero scored one for Atletico last year and two for Independiente in '06.
David Silva never scored a penalty.
(*all from an unknown number of attempts)

so... Barry it is? :lol:

Finally, an answer.

Training report from day 1 of 3 of preparations for the Spurs game
http://www.bluemoon-mcfc.co.uk/Blog/ind ... -19012012/

The only possible tiny doubts are Silva, Mario and Micah; those three had different training regimes but our reporter hints that this is just precautionary. He even spoke to Mario who said he was fully fit. No Aguero in training but it sounds like he was given the day off, which is fair enough given the amount of running he's had to put in to recent games.
