I doubt Wright Phillips is gonna play much and Ireland(despite beeing great last season) will probably find him self on the bench alot to make way for "big names".
There probably going to be playing a 433 with Adebayor up on top with Robinho and Tevez on the wings and Barry,De Jong and Kompany in midfield imo...
But there squad is so big and there attacking options so massive its just a guessing game how they will line up.
I dont think City will do good this season, no doubt there building a great squad but i just dont belive that a team with like 4936 strikers on there pay roll can keep up a good dressing room moral if they hit s bumb in the road.
Hughes is gonna be first to get the sack this year!
Its a little known fact that Hughes has asked his team to grow long hair and moustaches this season for the new formation.....1-1-8 1-1-8!
Seriously though, I have put a handicap-bet on City every season for as long as I can remember (usually 15-1
odds on them winning the prem with a 20-30 point start).
This season... 15-1 odds with a 10 point start!!! So if United or Chelsea break 90 points, we've gotta be in with 80+! No chance!
I stuck a fiver on it, (couldn't ever back against the 'great unpredictables' Man City), but nothing like what I usually put on them. Won £300 the season before last with a 39 point start. Those days are long gone.
Top 6 this season? Here's hoping!
If anyone here does have a wager on the footie...
william hill are offering some good prices at the mo. City's is pretty poor, but Hull to finish within 54 points of eventual winners: 15-1. Tottenham have something like a 40 pt start too with same odds. Worth a tenner of anyones money!
