However, many FB's can swap sides very adequately, witness Zaba. With that in mind I'd go for Clichy on the right and tell him to just do the defending, slip the ball to Zeus and let him do the rest. I'd play AK on the left where he has developed a great understanding with Samir, some of those overlaps and 1.2's are wicked. It's Vinnie and Demichelis at CH of course, tough on Les but he's rapidly becoming yesterday's man, he is a solid English CH but hasn't enough football in his feet or his brain for a Pellegrini team. I suspect he will start Merlin and then do pretty much what he did against the Foxes, take him off after 60/70 minutes, shift Naz into the hole and bring on Milner. Personally I'd rest Merlin with an eye on next Thursday and 'Pool and start Edin and Neggers in a 442. That would give Fernie and Yaya opportunity to provide more of the same that they provided midweek. It won't happen though, I'm rarely right :-) Alph I’m never keen to see CH’s playing at full back, they rarely do better than OK. However, many FB’s can swap sides very adequately, witness Zaba.

Boyata is not a RB but a CB. He looked edgy when he played a RB in our last game. So i expect Milner to be deployed to RB. Finally, i expect Dzeko to start the game and be substituted after 45 minutes or thereabout. Prediction: Not sure how the match will flow but i'll say 2:0. At worst 2:1 to City, with Hart striving to maintain a clean sheet Read somewhere that Hart will be recalled to the sticks against Fulham. Boyata is not a RB but a CB.
