Big game this Sunday - Man City v Arsenal - a real 6 pointer. Can't see City losing at home but we'll see. It's on Sky Sports in the UK and I get that as part of the F1 package I signed up to so I'll be watching. Could be a great game.

Who do you think will win?
Am I right in saying that Stones and Walker are both out? A good chance for Arsenal. Or I should say that's as good a chance as you're going to get with City. Still though, I expect them to bottle it as they normally do. But, IF they can win, then it is all there for them.

Yeah, I read that Guardiola said they were both out. Still can't see Arsenal beating them, tho. I think City will have too much for them.

That's specific enough! It may well be so.

I'm guessing 3-2 win for City.

Win lose or draw,* it should be fabulous game.

* just noticed I parroted you, although the expression isn't that uncommon!

That sounds like a good prediction. Arsenal should be able to score with two of City's best defensive players out. And with the blond Andy Carroll up front City can easily score that many. That said, I do hope Arsenal can somehow sneak a win. Then the cat really will be amongst the pigeons.

The Man City v Real game last night was awesome. Really looking forward to the 2nd leg next week. I think City will come out on top, those 3 away goals could make all the difference. The Arsenal v Bayern tie is finely poised, as well.

The away goal rule is no longer applicable, they got rid of it a few seasons ago. Bad for City, good for Arsenal. But yeah, I reckon City will still go through. Arsenal could be at the end of their road I reckon. Hard to see anyone stopping City retaining the cup now.

Stop it with them ‘negative waves’ man. I reckon the Arsenal will win everything this season.🙂
