I'm thinking he will come good but like his mate Dzeko he is finding his feet slowly and we will see his best work next season, not sure in which position though. Lescott is a funny one for me, I think a more committed defender would have cut the cross out for the Fulham goal though I do think he has been playing better recently. I just think the Kompany/Boateng partnership would be the dream team though, but I am thinking Lescott will get the nod on experience today. One thing is for sure, we cannot allow Wigan any kind of foothold in the game and we must be ruthless from start to finish. 2-0 to City. Totally agree on your changes as in my opinion Kolarov is

I see two issues with the above selections : 1- Kolarov has proven to be a liability against such players (We all remember Blackpool game where Mancini had to replace him). 2- Though Lescott has been solid for the past few games, his pace again is a matter of worry for this fixture. I prefer Boateng instead of Lescott and Zabaleta as our LB. Not sure we can get a glimpse of our forgotten man Michael Johnson, probably not until JO disappears into thin air by some divine intervention. Wigan attacking players are fast and physically strong.
