I'd be more worried about Coates up against Tevez/Balotelli than Sterling playing.

Dzeko is often seen running around whining and doesn't help City's play except for the odd goal. He hasn't been strong or good as either target man or finisher. He has since arriving lacked that bite that Tevez (sometimes) and Aguero has, the pure urge to fight and win.
Mario hasn't really showed that either but he can create something out of nothing just by his talent.
Well, of course a defender having a shocker is more damaging for a result than an ineffectual winger, but I think it's a lot of pressure on Sterling at such a young age. I've always disagreed with the common consensus that Sterling should start, I think his game still needs a lot of work.

Dear Dzeko,
If you want to be first choice in a title-winning side instead of third, you know what to do.

I really rate Coates. Hope he has a good game today.
Yep, Cabaye needs to be more forward. Maybe Pardew will see the light.It's a shame they can't be on fire together up front. Only when we play one up front and shove the other out on the wing do we then see something special.
ESPN is awesome for tracking that:

Came on against WBA.
He got some minutes late on against WBA but as expected didn't really accomplish anything. Didn't really ahve a chance to, mind..
It's irritating cos he saw the light when we won 6 on the bounce towards the end of last season via 4-3-3, allowing Cabaye and Ben Arfa to play more forward.
He's only being stubborn cos he knows he will lose Ba if he doesn't play him where Ba wants to be played. So stupid sacrificing your team's success just to make one player happy, a player who can't even play with his striking partner properly.
So frustrating. If we played 4-3-3, I reckon we would have at least drawn with Chelsea.

No Assaidi yet either. Hope we can see him soon too. Nervous as hell with that lineup, it's brave, but with our luck it'll come out as foolish.
hahaha thats actually really funny.

Our defending both as a unit and as a team is very encouraging. And all without the DM Arsene's promised and our best CB and the best RB in the country. Bouldy is putting in work.
As for the goals, they'll come, as they always do, whether it's one man picking up the slack or the entire team. We've had the most number of different goalscorers for the past few seasons after all.

When was the last time Wenger had a defensive coach?
City are not a bad team to play for really, but Dzeko can't be happy being third-fourth choice? He's way too good (and young) for that.
Based Marwood won't save us, I don't see them signing another striker in this transfer window, so it's all on Dzeko now.
Yeah I loved that so much I RT'd it twice!

Nope. He intends on 4-4-2 for the whole season.
I'm sure it will be back soon, if Newcastle keeps underperforming like this. I want to see Cisse goals again.
Crisis? Bring back Keegan!
Before the WBA match, someone said, "I hope we piss in their mouths."

How long til Tevez wants out again?
How many clear chances will Suarez miss today? I reckon 2

7 shots, 4 on target, no goals.
Rooney needs to emulate Tevez, lose the weight.
With RVP (and in some sorts, Kagawa) threatening his position now, Rooney has to improve himself any way he can.

We need a gif of Tevez saying 'it's a goal!' for future use.
Cacking my pants.

Pretty terrible for someone that has spent 6 years in this country.

Probably something to do with his chin skin being fused with his neck.
Never understood why it seems okay to give Tevez grief about his looks, the story behind it is horrific.
It's alright...
He has to, losing weight helps and for a footballer he should be fit as hell anyway.
I think he just has a large tongue.
The first thing he did when he met Tevez was lift his shirt up, creepy as fuck. The man's like a new age villain.

Grim.
Thanks. I know it should sound better but he hasn't really tried speaking it until just before this summer.
