Has Yaya ever had a good game against us (with Citeh)? He looks like a less mobile Gerrard when we play around them. If most of our identical, small, technical midgets are rested tomorrow, it should happen again.

I don't think so. As long as you deny him the space to run vertically, or alternatively keep the ball away from him, there's not a huge amount he can do to activate Beast Mode.

[Ollie the Optimist]

what is the betting that if city get a result tonight against Bayern, the british media will use it as the reason why city will win the league and totally ignore the fact that we beat them in march?
