I just hope that our players embrace the position they are in.
We have been fearless all season. Even at The Etihad and Stamford Bridge in December, we went to those games to win, and arguably should have won both.
The thing that makes me more confident about this game, rather than West Ham last weekend is that City won't try to get 10 men behind the ball. On Sunday, against West Ham, at times we looked like we wasn't sure how we would break them down.
I have said time and time again this season, that we are a deadly counter-attacking side that can, and will, hurt teams with our quick movement, and high tempo. If the game slows down (which it does when the opposition just sit in front of the ball) then we lose some of our potency, and with that the game can become quite flat.
City have World Class players throughout their team, so we don't want to invite them on too much and allow them the greater share of possession otherwise we might not see the ball for ages, and when we do win it, they'll drop back in and cut off the counter-attack, so our pressing will have to be quick and hard, and look to get the ball off of them and hit them quickly.
