Man City v Arsenal, 12:45

Blatter · 2013-12-14 11:58:22

Man City: Pantilimon, Zabaleta, Kompany, Demichelis, Clichy, Fernandinho, Toure, Nasri, Silva, Aguero, Negredo Arsenal : Szczesny, Sagna, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Monreal, Flamini, Wilshere, Ozil, Walcott, Ramsey, Giroud Should be a good game. City have been awesome at home but look too short at 3/4 imo.

Everyone else, take note:

If you believe a post is in breach of the charter then you should report it, and move on. If you engage the poster on his/her breach of the charter you risk infraction for back-seat modding.

Examples of back-seat modding include:
Calling someone a troll
Telling a poster not to post in a thread, or they should post elsewhere
Telling a poster you have reported their post (effectively accusing them of a breach of the charter)
Commenting on a breach of charter
Informing a user that you have/will be putting them on your ignore list. Advising others to do the same.

This list is not exhaustive, and mod discretion may be applied in cases where the intent is judged to be helpful (for example, telling another user they should use spoiler tags for score updates, and showing them how to do so).

The rule of thumb should always be to leave moderation to the mods.

Such posts will be (and have been) deleted and also carded from now.

I feel Arsenal have another goal in them but also if we do score I feel like city can shift a gear and get another. Big performance needed this half.

Even if we end up losing I'll be more gutted about Kosc than anything else. If its long term there'll have to be CB bought in january.

Michael Owen's only real contribution is to act dismayed that Engerland's (and therefore the worlds) best keeper isn't playing

Get a grip, it's a game of football...and an Irish message board. Not like United fans on here grew up having street fights with city fans.

Never fought with Liverpool or Shamrock Rovers fans either but I wouldn't be cheering them on

To be fair, there is actually zero contact. He tries to takes him down and misses. Flamini takes a few steps and then decides to flop to the ground.
