I like my City players to be robust and exciting.
I like my City fans to be erratic and troubled.
Hence why I'm often critical of players and happy posting on here.

That’s bollocks. They are maybe doing better right now than they did in the last couple of seasons for us. But they were both integral in our cup winning team, and before that. Especially Youri.

That's just not true.
Tielemens was outstanding for us until last season really, arguably, half the season before. Castagnes was excellent for the most part. He suffered under that **** last season as most players did.

Erm, I think you must've had two tabs open. You've posted on the wrong one by mistake.

Win this and I think we break Leeds and Saints back. In that regard it’s a big one.
Really hope we deliver today.

I don't pay much attention to the Premier League this season other than check the scores, I see where Villa are in the league but had heard that Youri had had a bad start. Is he doing better now? In anyway partly responsible for their current position?

Tielemans has excelled at Villa recently. Becoming a really important player for them and the fans are loving it. He looks like he's shed a bunch of weight as well.
"His legs are gone" as some have said was bollocks. Yes he's played a lot of matches but I think his mentality had gone rather than his legs.
He was in a side on the decline, wanted to be at a bigger club, had felt his time was over and had David Brent as his manager. No wonder he's enjoying it at Villa this season.

This is an important match for a mental victory over 3rd and 4th for sure. Win this and we're at 52 points which, based on the average number of points needed for automatic over the last 5 years, 84, would mean that we'd need 11 wins out of the remaining 22 matches to finish 2nd at least.
Having said that, I think we might need 90 points this year as Leeds and Soton will be relentless.
Also, kudos to Ipswich, a storming season for them. First aim is promotion, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't care if we finished 1st or 2nd. For us to win this league would cap off a stunning decade from 13/14 to 23/24 - starting and finishing with the Championship title.
