On the one hand we could get torn a new arsehole. On the other hand we've had their measure recently so could spring a shock.

0-0 it is then.

I think that they're shite and there for the taking. Genuinely. They are nothing more than 'Emperor's New Clothes'. None of their defenders are any good and they have no central midfield. If we let them have all the possession in our half, they'll beat us but I'd hope and expect that Puel comes up with a tactical plan that exposes their weaknesses and allows our strengths to embarrass them.

Don't forget that we absolutely humiliated pretty much the same side at our place last season. If we treat them with utter disrespect and contempt, I expect us to beat them.

You cannot believe this garbage, surely? Have you watched any of their games this season? If they are 'shite' then what the bollock are the rest of the league they've been happily hammering for most of the season? They are playing fantastic football at present and look almost unstoppable going forward. I agree, their strength is not in defence but 'shite'? Really? I think your scale of quality needs adjustment.
 
They are so good going forward it almost doesn't matter how fragile they are in defence. They will pick us apart and score at least 3.
 
My conspiracy theory - the 'powers that be' will suggest to the Ref/ linesman/ 4th official/ Bet sky/ 365/ etc that it is not good for the PL for one team to be running away with it so early in the season and point out that LCFC are not direct competitors for their champions' spot. Accordingly, we'll get some dodgy decisions in our favour and a couple of penalties. Final score 3-3. In compensation, the Ref for the cup game with Man City will seek to address the miscarriage of justice and we'll get hammered 5-0.
 
We look like we are going in the right direction but I don't think that there is any real chance of getting anything out of this game other than being worthy losers.
 
Man City are seriously good going forward. We will struggle to contain them and we will concede goals, but hopefully not ship them. I honestly cannot see us out scoring them but stranger things have happened. I'll be stunned if we win, thrilled if we draw and honestly just hope to keep within a goal of them.

Whatever happens, it'll be an excellent test of where we are.
 
Some of my hopes for today:
1. We don't get battered.
2. At the end of the game we know we have a tactically astute manager.
3. We give them a run for their money.
4. We score a couple of goals.

Nothing is impossible in football but I trust that you haven' t bet actual money.

They've only scored an average of 3+ goals per game in their last 9 away wins, they're shite man. If we don't win this, Puel out.
