I saw that too.

Gary Lineker on the world cup draw show today was the same. Unshaven. Probably some kind of dare. Those wacky guys are always up to some shenanigans.

Bolton v Man City
Manchester City need to follow up their victory over Chelsea with another three points.

Mark Hughes' team have not lost since 20 September. They have had a lot of draws and although a lot has been made of this I don't think it is a big problem.

It is losing games that impacts on a team's confidence - but staying unbeaten keeps it intact.

I still think that they need to address how many attacking and how many defensive players they deploy in certain parts of the pitch.

They have had a week off and I think they will defeat a Bolton side that disappointed at Wolves.

The problem at Bolton over the last few years has been goals, specifically, who is going to score them?

For example, Kevin Davies is a good player and a real handful for the opposition but he is not a prolific scorer.

Verdict: 0-2

thanks lawro, the proverbial kiss of death....

Manchester City v Sunderland

Man City are back at home and that will make a difference to their performance.

We saw them just capitulate against Tottenham on Wednesday night but they're back in the comfort of Eastlands and I'll probably go against Sunderland.

Lee Cattermole is about to come back for Sunderland and I think they'd admit they've missed him, but I cannot see them winning in Manchester.

Verdict: 2-1

What a twat!

Manchester City v Stoke

Manchester City's home form is excellent and I would not be surprised if Robinho played and showed all his tricks in front of his new manager.

I don't think Saturday will be a problem for new boss Roberto Mancini - but there are the long-term issues he needs to sort out.

I'm not sure that the balance of the side has been right, especially when City do not have the ball, while there are also questions about the dressing room.

Emmanuel Adebayor's body language and the way Robinho goes missing away from home are problems that need addressing very quickly.

Verdict: 2-1

Wolves v Man City (1945 GMT)

This is very interesting from the point of view of team City manager Roberto Mancini will pick. City's home form is great but not so away. How does Mancini see it? Is it an Italian way in that he will start with a point which his team need to hold on and, if they can build on it, then fine? or will it be more attacking.

Wolves have been on a decent run and it was only when they went 10-men down against Liverpool that they went on to lose. There's absolutely no chance manager Mick McCarthy will rest anybody. They have enough attacking power but the problem for them is when they do not have the ball as they are vulnerable. I have a sneaky feeling they will stay up.

Verdict: 1-1

He;s a fucking cock!. :mad:

MONDAY

Man City v Blackburn

I'm going to go for a comfortable City win here. City have real competition for places, they're already making moves in the transfer market - though I'm not sure how much impact Patrick Vieira will have for them - and they look a team on a mission.

Blackburn, on the other hand, are going through an inconsistent spell and that is exactly what they don't need as they travel to a City side that have been excellent at home all season.

Verdict: 3-0

Everton - Manchester City (1730)


New Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has made a very good start. There is still the argument that Mark Hughes could have won the last four games, so it's early days, but Mancini has given players a fresh start and has played quite a few people who were on the fringes. That has created a healthy competition in the squad.

City are up against an Everton team who I thought could and should have beaten Arsenal. It was a very encouraging performance. On the back of that result, I think they will give a similar display but this time get the victory.

Everton had an awful start to the season with injuries, but David Moyes didn't go on about it and they are starting to get those players back now. I can see Everton having a very good final third of the season.

Verdict: 2-0

fancy a wager with me lawro, you turd.....

I don't think it will be an easy game at all

We will do well to draw.

don't get too taken away with Everton, they're unbeaten in 8 but have won just one and struggled at home so I wouldn't worry too much

Maybe we should put in a cheeky bid for one of their players and watch Gollum blow his top again and lose because he's too busy talking about us.

think this'll be a surprisingly entertaining game and a high scoring draw

As usual I have a bad feeling about this game, I think its because I am so used to City being City! So I think that this will be 2-1 to Everton :-(

"Typical City"

We're on a roll, playing at top form, I just can't see Everton winning this game, draw is a possibility. I have a sixth sense about these things...Trust me on this one, bet 500£ for City, as did I.
