Ok then. For the fun of it let's do a City/juve Mix team. Try to put club Bias aside and be honest with yourselves...

.........................Buffon........................
.........................................................
Zabaleta.....Kompany.....Chilellini.....Clichy
.........................................................
..................Yaya...........Pirlo................
.........................................................
Nasri...................Tevez..................Silva
.........................................................
.........................Aguero.......................

3 Juve - 8 City

Not seeing how juve have the better team or squad, but just an opinion.
This sounds right, although depending on the formation there might be some changes. Personally I'd find this too attacking for, say, playing Barcelona, United, Chelsea etc. In a more defensive formation I'd replace one the AM trio with Vidal or Marchisio. Isla is another jam who could easily find a place in a Juve/City formation if the 3-5-2 formation is used. Lescott or Barzagli might play too if Chiellini could take Clichy's place in a more defensive formation.

This City talk is cute and all, but fuck Arab money. We all know you'll be running back to Chelsea when the Arabs get bored of pumping oil money up your asses.

If serie A fans were so egocentric and deluded as an average EPL fan.........

Lol, City, why would XY join them? They suck. I mean, they have Balotelli and Kolarov is a fine player, but who else do they have? I don't watch their boring league but I've seen enough of them in Europe. They couldn't beat an awful Juve two years ago and last year Napoli gave them a footballing lesson. They only run there in the EPL. No brains.

Back to Chelsea? I believe you are making the mistake of believing City fans are Perhaps glory hunters?... I've been a City fan longer than you have been alive. I have been nothing but respectfull since i started posting here. Show Me the same respct.

On a side note, and this is a genuiune question. Why do you think Sheikh Mansour will "Get Bored?" I read that stupid comment everywhere and i usualy put it down to wishfull thinking. Have you even seen the long term plans that are in place for MCFC?

Haha, sorry I think I disagree with almost all your football opinions.
Haha, sorry Nick but this is something I have to agree with. Yaya Toure is without doubt the best CM in the world.

Seriously unfair on Richards here guys. Do any you actualy watch City or what? LOL... He's a monster, Brilliant positional play, Rapid speed, strong as a mountain and Brilliant going forward. Better than Lichtsteiner imo, But i chose Zaba for manlove reasons, lol. Barzagli isn't close to Kompany btw
:howler: We don't watch EPL or you don't watch Serie A?

You have a point. There are very few cases when the owners got bored of the team. In most cases they take care of the team till the end of their lives and even pass it to their children. Juve, Inter and maybe Milan are such cases. I so no reason why should people be convinced that Roman or City's sheik will be any different. Maybe because those teams aren't based in their country, but even if so, that makes little difference.

    You obviously do not understand Exactly what Sheikh Mansours plans are for City. Al Thani bought Malaga and proceeded to use borrowed money to buy players saddling the club with debt. The first thing Mansour did when he took over City was pay off all our debt he hasn't borrowed a penny against the club and never will. I wont go into His huge plans for City, they are incredible and way too big to discuss here. It's not the time or the place But you just need to google it.

    Apologies to everyone for going way off topic. But i sense a bit of a foul atmosphere aimed towards me from a few posters which is un called for as i have been very respectfull here.

    Okay, am I officially a fair person. Let's make a comparison of the starting players, position for position:

    Buffon > Hart

    Lichtsteiner > Richards

    Barzagli < Kompany (debatable, but to be fair)

    Chiellini > Lescott

    De Ceglie < Clichy

    Vidal < Toure (but maybe not for long)

    Pirlo > Barry

    Marchisio > Milner

    Vucinic < Tevez

    Pepe/Isla < Balotelli

    Matri < Aguero

    5-6 to City
    I like what you did there - chose City's worst player to compare with Marchi.
