Obviously I'd be delighted with a hard-fought draw or a sneaky snatched win, but I'd take anything better than 0-4, as it will represent progress over our last debut in the top flight.

An optimistic 2 - 2

What's interesting about this poll, is that for all threads about how we need a striker, or how we're gagging for a striker, at the time of posting 134 people out of 182 voting thought we would score against Man City. 73% think we will score against one of the favourites to win the league, who have spent £160 million on their defence. This positivity about our chances of scoring against them seems at odds with the negativity around that we won't score enough goals this year. In my opinion if we are good enough to score against Man City then we will be good enough to score against anyone.

Dunk to score a last minute equaliser.

I've gone 2-5, at 66/1.

I didn't get the impression from the Madrid game that we have yet got good understanding defensively on the flanks, and City will exploit that to make it very difficult for us. Suttner tucks in narrow, but Brown gave little tight cover most of the time. Bruno and Murphy also was not a much used pair last season, so little understanding, nor was Rosenior with anyone. I think we'll have a good central midfield defensive shield, and if we play narrow it will stop City pushing it through the gaps, or inbetween our lines of four. This will inevitably push the threat to the flanks, and they have pace to burn and exploit our lack of cohesion around there. Not down hearted by that at all. We are in a mini league of about 7 clubs, whose sole objective is to finish 17th or better. And City are not in that league.

Have opted for a 1-3. To open up against one of the top guys I think will be just beyond us. Still, it gets them out of the way. If we can get something from it, it could be huge going into the following few games.

Citeh always seem to struggle in first game of season.

Well we've won our last 7 opening day fixtures. Since a 0-0 with Spurs in 2010.

We will however bounce back after signing Greizman following his trial yesterday

I don't think Man City will want to over extend themselves in the first game against lowly opposition, so once they have a one goal advantage I think they will park the bus and save themselves for the next game.

Unfortunately, their fans are not picking the their team. Or else they will play three at the back and give us a sporting chance.

I eventually went for a 1-1. I was orginally gonna go for 2-3 but with those scores against Arsenal and Atletico, three of them would seem unlikely.

The run of the goals went for the opposition in the 2-3 games so maybe we will get the breaks and get the first goal and fray our nerves.

Voters 232. I expect it will be a record number?

City to play the Hyypia system ? Three at the back with wing-backs?

No way in the world Hughton would have him in the team with that haircut.
