I think so City is dreadful how they could lose ( being 1 up HT) vs 3rd league team 8O 8O and it was full strenght city, so It could be a time for WHU 7/10

Heard where exactly?

Manchester City manager Stuart Pearce is pondering a recall for Paul Dickov.

Pearce wants to see some bite in his goal-shy forward line after the midweek League Cup defeat, and he may also hand a full debut to DaMarcus Beasley.

Tyrone Mears is out of contention for West Ham after picking up a calf strain and fellow defender James Collins is also out, nursing a groin problem.

One possible replacement is Jonathan Spector, but he has been told he will not figure due to a lack of fitness.

Manchester City (from): Weaver, Hart, Distin, Dunne, Jordan, Mills, Richards, Barton, Hamann, Ireland, Reyna, Miller, Beasley, Sinclair, Corradi, Dickov, Samaras, Sturridge.

West Ham (from): Carroll, Green, Walker, Ferdinand, Gabbidon, Konchesky, Spector, Dailly, Benayoun, Mullins, Mascherano, Reo-Coker, Bowyer, Sheringham, Cole, Harewood, Zamora, Tevez.

well pardew still thought he was there when I heard him on radio this morning, west ham do stand out don't they. Just I've been burnt with them a few times already this season, man city are hideous, can west ham get together this time if so those are real nice odds, might be worth a small wager just because west ham can't stay this bad for ever where as man city really are that bad.
Zamora, Tevez and Harwewood should be able to get behind the very vulnerable city back line, I'd be much happier if etherington was starting from a betting point of view as he is a key hammers player.

Manchester City-West Ham

After the midweek Carling Cup defeat vs. Chesterfield, there’s been a lot of talk in the media about City’s playing crysis. Manager Pierce claims such statements are false and that his team has only had a bad day, but it’s undoubtable that City have been in abysmal form in their league during the entire year of 2006, and Pierce could easily lose his job unless he gets the team going soon. Pierce is probably considering all sorts of lineup changes, and has all of his players to choose from.

The Hammers seem to be going through a mini-crysis at the moment, and in a recent interview, defender Gabiddon has admitted that star signings Mascerano and Tevez have disrupted the team a bit. The problems have been aknowledged by coach Pardew, who has urges his players to try to once again show the attractive and flowing football they’ve been showing last season. Defenders Mears and Collins are out for the Hammers.

City are well capable of delivering the goods at home, but same goes for Hammers away of Upton Park. With the stake being so high for both teams, we can expect a very exciting encounter.

It is very hard to predict on this match.I will play X2 on this 'cause Manchester side have a lot of important players injured or suspended (Isaksson and Vassel).The aregentian pair( Mascherano and Carlitos Tevez) should lead the hammers towards the victory.The argentinian super striker will find his scoring skills that made him a star 8)
WestHam to score 1.40 8O
it's a certain for me :!: :!:


And let's not forget about Bobby Zamora :oops: :lol:
