    Right. The time has come to unveil my masterplan.

    1/. Nick Pope to wear gloves which are each 12 foot x 8 foot. Combined, they will cover the goal. I can't find anything in the rules that prohibit this.

    2/. When Pope fields the ball he simply shoves it up his jumper and runs into the City net.

    3/. Remember that bloke who can head it in the air non-stop? Well, sign him up (he hasn't got a contract at present) and get him to stand on the shoulders of two of our tall lads. Then they simply walk into the City penalty area where he nods it in the net.

    Foolproof.

    If Sean DOES go then I am available at the right price.

    I think we might be overdoing the doom and gloom, we've played the top six away 9 times so far in the last two seasons, we've won one, drawn three and lost five. But in those five defeats the only team to beat us by more than one goal was Chelsea, 3-0 in August last year, and they only scored their 3rd in the last minute when we had Tarko and young O'Neill in midfield.

    Nine games and we've either won, drawn or lost by one goal in eight of them, City are certainly on a roll, but our results when visiting the top teams show we've nothing to be frightened of.

    Woody has been a great signing.

    The Mail has the answers. We just have to fill their pockets and a few more things. Thanks

    Thee battle of the midfield.
    Can Defour sort out deBruyne in the battle of the Belgians? He has his chance to shine and impress his national coach.
