Que? Let me just confirm - it's ok for Timmeh to lose against the big boys since we're not aiming for the title but if AVB does it he should be sacked?
(I would like to respond to this particular point since the initial 'debate' sprung from that)My point regarding the coming City game, is that I dont see why it now seen as the game that we can finally judge TS on.....people have said the same about Southampton, Utd and Swansea.
I think he's Bony
...any Vids from the away end yet??
Goals and/or Trigger tributes gratefully appreciated, ta!

He also had a pass completion rate of 91%.. I didn't think he had his best game but his stats prove otherwise.
It will be an open game, a game we will chase. With a little luck, take our chances, they miss theirs.Dunno about beat so much... take points off, perhaps (even though it would help THOSE two!)
To be fair, Jan, Sandro and Kaboul (maybe) will be back... so, erm, yes, you never know!
City away certainly aren't the same City at home...
...then again, us at home certainly aren't the same us away either... so... erm... it evens itself out??
I agree with you.(I would like to respond to this particular point since the initial 'debate' sprung from that)
Because they're the best team in the league by far and the ultimate yard-stick of how far we can compete with the big clubs - perfect test for the team, imv. Exonerating the result since we're out of the title race is bizarre to say the least and I believe we have the ability and quality to snatch at least a point from them, especially since their away form has been a little shaky.
Yes, every game is important but I'm particularly interested of how we fare against the league's best team. If they smash us - fair enough.
What does the score matter, as long as Dawson gets a good slagging..........I agree with you.
And it is not about winning, even. They really are that good.
For TS it is about presenting a better performance than the home game defeat. It is about making a credible perfomance throughout the game - if we end up losing 4-0 due to 4 instances of brilliance from Negredo, Aguero, Yaya and Silva, hey, that is ok too.

Can't see the team captain being dropped for a big game though.dawson gets a good slagging because his consistently below parr..
not to enter this debate again but vlad and verts need to start against city..

Is that the primary reason that Dawson is still in the side , the fact that he is the captain. When Super Jan is back who gives way? I would pick Super Jan over Dawson and make him skipper.Can't see the team captain being dropped for a big game though.
no way, make Bentaleb captainIs that the primary reason that Dawson is still in the side , the fact that he is the captain. When Super Jan is back who gives way? I would pick Super Jan over Dawson and make him skipper.
Then be prepared to ship another 5-6 if Aguero and Negredo feel like it.Can't see the team captain being dropped for a big game though.
