Which one do you peeps think will scores most pts between tw4/5 ?.......thx.

(bearing in mind arsenal have 11(potential for 12 games) & city have 10 games but look the slightly easier fixtures .

Kompany every day of the week!

Kompany...most days of the week (but not every day)

What the way Man City have been playing your having a laugh...

Vermaelen has more goals in him than Kompany and is a better C/B

I disagree Em. Man C have more potential for clean sheets than Arsenal. Kompany scores as many goals as Verm.

Why don't you put them both in like me

nah ignore me i'm totally and utterly biased..I know Kompany is total class..

Arsenal have one of the worst defensive records away from home, Vermaelen is injury prone (more so than Kompany) and seems to be picking up cards on a fairly regular basis since returning (gut feel). I don't even think he's the better player. However, it's not what I think that counts, it's what the Sun reporters think. Vermaelen has zero Star Man awards....Kompany has two.

If I recall, during the middle of the transfer window, City look like they have a few decent fixtures against lowly clubs, where clean sheets might be on the cards.

I guess with Vermaelen, you have the benefit of an extra £0.5m to upgrade elsewhere, and this might be an important consideration.

as i said ignore me i'm talking out my anus and i cant hand on heart say Vermaelen cause i have brought in Kompany

I'm considering having both for the duration of the next window.

Lets study Arsenals upcoming fixtures and bear in mind only Wigan have conceeded more goals away from home than Arsenal.


Sunderland away- LOSE

Milan away - LOSE

(probably Sunderland away again- LOSE

Spurs home - LOSE

Liverpool away - LOSE

Milan home - LOSE

Newcastle home - LOSE


JEEZ shall i go on??

dunno how you arrive at that..

City 8 lge games + 2 euro=10

Ars 8 lge games + 2 cl + 1 fa-cup=11...+ another fa cup(should they beat sun/mid) =12????

Thats how i read it........but hey,i could be wrong???

Only 7 league games, though if City go through Europa, they play the next round, and half of the following round in this window, so a potential 12 games if they get through the next 2 rounds

Cheers for that bud,like i said could be wrong(damn shift work making me bog-eyed)......obviously i was

Who thinks Kompany will feature in the Europa games? How seriously is Mancini taking it?

I'm guessing he's taking it quite seriously seeing as Man City are out of both of the domestic cups, but could he be tempted to give the likes of Kolo Toure a run out and rest Kompany..?

I guess if he's thier captain then he'll probably feature...hmm...

Kompany for sure - has to be everyones first choice defender

Vermuelean & P Jones are about tied for 2nd

Kompany, if I was in or near the lead..

..but playing catch-up, probably neither.

When you look at the teams they each play for it's a no-brainer. Kompany all the way.

Yeah when i said Vermaelen i was actually meaning to be tongue in cheek.. and i was a little bit stressed trying to sort HTML scripts out for my new web site

we need to start getting clean sheets week in week out to make any of our defenders a good choice
