Man City v Liverpool... Sat 21st 5.30pm SS1

No thread for game... fixed!

This game doesn't really need much hype!

Both Aguero and Sturridge are set to return, Sterling and Milner both face their old clubs... Will this be boring? Naaaah!!!

Thommo also trying to troll everyone saying he would have Milner ahead of KDB as it is a coin flip between them.

Prediction: City slickers 2 good for Pool Oh (see what I did there

)

4-0 Liverpool, Lovren to break Mané's hattrick record!

klose · 20-11-2015 9:38pm

Id be surprised if srurridge is involved tomorrow, if the last few seasons are anything to go by the game should be an absolute belter.!

A newbie starting the match thread? On your head be it, SG.

OwaynOTT · 20-11-2015 11:22pm

What's the point, they'll be playing again next year.

Harry Palmr · 20-11-2015 11:38pm

I'm loath to parrot the supposed ITK twitterings of Darmian but he has no strikers starting for Liverpool (Firmino up top) but regardless it'll be a toughie. On the other hand no one is expecting Liverpool to win so their is little real pressure.

Turtyturd · 21-11-2015 10:42am

Handy City win hopefully as they march towards another title.

C'mon City.

Hangballlouie · 21-11-2015 11:03am

I think we have a better chance to get something today than we do against the likes of Palace or Southampton. I'll call it a draw.

Milkers · 21-11-2015 11:28am

When the real City show up no team in England can beat them, when they don't anyone can.

Is Benteke injured???

Kerrigooney · 21-11-2015 12:29pm

Think we might sneak this. Not overly confident though.

5starpool · 21-11-2015 1:02pm

I'd be delighted with a draw now. City rightly strong favourites, but Liverpool have had a few decent performances at the Etihad in recent years without getting a win, so not ruling out an away win. If forced to enter a score though I'll say 2-1 home win.

21-11-2015 1:08pm

2-2

Covering all the bases there, 5star:)

I'm going for a City win 1-0 but with some improvement in performances lately and Kompany missing, there is a small chance of Liverpool getting a point..

Yakult · 21-11-2015 2:50pm

So annoyed I have to miss the first half. Will be a cracker of a game but I think City will edge it and get the win. I'd gladly take a draw right now. Would be a good result!

Dream - Sturridge comes on 88th minute and gets a hat trick

I think Thompson must have been on the sauce. I was a big fan of Jimbo when he was playing for us, and I was disappointed when he left for Liverpool. But De Bruyne is on a totally different level to him. If we play to 75% of our ability, and with Kun probably featuring at some stage, I'll go for a 3-1 win for us.

marklazarcovic · 21-11-2015 4:03pm

3-1 city

In fairness to Thommo, he explained earlier on Soccer Saturday that it was a combined eleven of players he thought would play today and apparently De Bruyne hasn't been picked the last few games.

De Bruyne is of course a better player. Milner overall has been a disappointing signing so far this season.

Jesus Wept · 21-11-2015 4:38pm

0-3

Nib · 21-11-2015 4:39pm

10 all.

Fair enough. But I imagine Kev will be playing today. I think Pellers has been rotating the midfield a bit in recent games, hence De Bruyne not playing in some games.

Aguero back

I hope someone breaks Sterling in half in the first 5 mins.

GreNoLi · 21-11-2015 5:35pm

4-2 City.

Demichelis? This makes me happy. I fancy us to score anyway.

It was embarrassing viewing, it's impossible for him to talk about Liverpool he's so biased.
De Bruyne was rotated for one game, he was making it out like Pellegrini was some how unsure about him.

Cop yourself on. He moved for better money, certainly. But also to play with better players and a better team. Just like all those Southampton players you bought. Wishing injury on a player is poor form.
