By Alan Tyers 12:45PM BST 27 Apr 2013 Email alan.tyers@telegraph.co.uk with the answer to this question: who'd you rather go for a drink devoid of of Big Sam Allardyce and Medium-Sized Roberto Mancini, and why? MANCHESTER CITY 0 WEST HAM 0 22 mins: Aguero's hit the post! Silva represents a ball, it wasn't actually an excellent pass but a deflection is taken by it down a Hammers opponent and ends up right at the feet of Aguero! He gets it first-time but does not get hold of it at all, the ball dribbles onto the post. 20 mins: Good link up between Tevez and Aguero, a allows the former to capture, but well over. Still all City when it comes to person and territory. 18 mins: Carroll's in to the book for fixing Aguero, I reckon he got the ball first but it didn't seem very controlled. If Carroll was not a base taller and fifty pounds weightier than Aguero that could never have been a card. Hard lines big lad. 16 mins: It is all City, they are camped in the West Ham remaining third. Nolan concedes a corner of Aguero. Carroll sets in a great defensive header, it drops to Silva and he hits it low and quite difficult, but only broad. 13 mins: Neat angled ball in from Silva and Aguero runs over the defense, free in the region. Demel has given him a sly whip there, if you'll pardon the expression, but the ref did not see it and it drops Aguero just enough for Jaaskelainen to gather. 12 mins: Good shift by City, many participants involved, and it's worked out to Nasri on the left. No obvious ball on so City perform it around again, individual material, Back to Nasri now and his dangerous low mix is pushed out. 11 mins: Quiet sport at the moment. Neither area looks exactly like they are playing for their lives. Somewhat of argy-bargy would be great. 10 mins: Diame is the latest West Ham person to pack Silva around. 7 mins: Classic City go as Tevez represents the slide rule pass into the region on the proper, Zabaleta overlapping but Hammers struggle it out for a spot as a result of Jarvis. West Ham don't protect it very well at all. 6 mins: A Hammers attack reduces - Nolan can't discover Carroll with a through ball - and City break through Carlos Tevez. A swervy shot is hit by him but Jussi is behind it well enough. 5 mins: Kevin Nolan setting up a good shift; it is a big of a midfield fight so far, not really a lot of action to inform you about. Reid's tackeld Silva hard again and this time around gets a notice from the ref.This City group today is the exact same XI who beat QPR on the last day of last year. I think I am right in saying they have not had this XI together because - but am prepared to remain corrected... 3 mins: Carroll and Lescott tussle for the ball down the City left, Andy wins the test of strength but his cross is safe. 2 mins: Reid stops Silva with an awkward tackle but eliminates a card. Town create with Barry, Nasri, Silva all seeing plenty of the ball, Hammers standing off 1 mins: Wow, fascinating begin from City, Nasri weaves by way of a handful of challenges and moves it to Tevez in the region! Offside. 12.43 City fall into line with Aguero facing Silva, Tevez, and Nasri. 12.38 The players have been in the canal. Beautiful day there, pitch appears amazing. 12.31 Sam Allardyce states that "chances against Man City will undoubtedly be spasmodic." Jamie Redknapp says "Sam does not get the value he deserves - often English administrators do not." You have surely got to be joking, right? Can there be a more self-congratulatory boys' club in the complete sporting earth than English Premier League supervisors and their ex-player friends in the media? It is a gravy train with cookie wheels, and once you are onto it, no quantity of failure or uselessness will get you off: your peers and media mates will soon be speaking you up for lucrative gigs ten years after you were any use whatsoever. Your dangerous director, meanwhile, when he don't bother with the golf, may be treated with suspicion and disdain when you understand that he might leave these shores in per year or two. Even by their own expectations, that is utter tosh from young Jamie. "English managers do not have the value they deserve." Take another one. 12.30 Some top statting below. Twitter: Football Form Labs - Man City won their last nine home games carrying out a defeat with six win-win increases and ten wins to-nil http://t.co/HIAg66qvNY #FormLabMAX 12.21 Yes, it's 'Sultans Of Swing' by Dire Straits! Obviously it's. Someone has just done a bad shot, and there is some bants about someone's jeans. God I wish I was there. Before, when it took place, whatever. And oh my goodness there is Carlos Tevez, he is wearing a peak thing such as an old man has on in Florida AND He is GOT A BOBBLE HAT ON TOP. That is powerful work from Carlos. He's surely probably the most extravagantly accessorised top degree player the English game has seen. Snoods, peak bobbles, this lad the lot NNP be got by NNP. 12.20 Sky Sports have a survey movie deal of James Milner and Joe Hart the game of golf. For one hundred web factors, title the track being played? 12.15 David Silva results from the three-match lack with a hamstring injury to make his 100th category appearance for Manchester City. Sergio Aguero can be readily available for the Blues, who have Joleon Lescott in defence as opposed to Matija Nastastic. Go Joleon! Glad to see him getting his game. Hammers unchanged from the team that beat Wigan. The team news is Here come by 12.10, then.... Person City: Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy, Yaya Toure, Barry, Silva, Tevez, Nasri, Aguero West Ham: Jaaskelainen, Demel, Reid, Collins, O'Brien, O'Neil, Nolan, Diame, Jarvis, Vaz Te, Carroll Twitter: Premier League - TEAM INFORMATION Birmingham Town make three adjustments with Aguero, Silva and Lescott replacing Dzeko, Milner and Nastasic. #MCIWHU 12.00 Morning all and welcome to your live blog of Manchester City v West Ham, the initial of four live games on our website this weekend. It is an absolutely crunch game absolutely not a crunch game but let us not let that spoil our enjoyment. 2nd place Man City have 68 details and a game at your fingertips on Arsenal, whom they lead by five points. Chelsea are on 62, Spurs on 61. Most of the top three groups undergo to the Champions League team stages, last place must feel the play-off. Therefore, yeah. Finishing 2nd or third = same difference. Oh, I suppose you obtain a bit more prize money; probably enough to help keep Yaya Toure in the style to which he has become used for... oohh... two days? As for eleventh located West Ham, they are maybe not mathematically safe, but surely it would take anything strange and wrong to allow them to go down using their current haul of 42 points. While it was undeniably funny, I thought it was somewhat signify individuals were laughing at Big Sam in the week for failing continually to sign man-of-the-moment Robert Lewandowski. On the other hand, volcanic ash! Seriously. Poor Sam. Poor Lewandowski, not getting a opportunity to assist Allardyce at Blackburn. Which could have made a fantastic foundation for a show, I reckon. Lewandowski the maverick detective, Allardyce the gruff police captain. It'd be called Lewandowski PI. He'd stop the reservation, do something unconscionable to have information out of a suspect, or maybe handle the soccer without needing his elbows. "Dammit Lewandowski, I want your logo and gun," Sam would yell, before making him run round the pitch a great deal and eat a sausage meal. The groups is likely to be here briefly, I'm sure. Meanwhile, listed here is John Ley's match critique, that is by John Ley. You know what? Let's have only a little picture of John. Possible Group News: Birmingham Area have David Silva, David Milner and Sergio AgAero all available following hamstring dilemmas against West Ham at the Etihad Stadium. Playmaker Silva has overlooked days gone by three games while striker AgAero was an untouched exchange in last weekend's defeat by Tottenham and winger Milner was pushed off at half-time for the reason that game. Midfielder Jack Rodwell has been out for nearly two months along with his latest hamstring problem but could be around while defenders Maicon and Micah Richards are not yet ready for a go back to first-team action. West Ham, meanwhile, are without defensive set James Tomkins and George McCartney at the Eithad. Midfielder Mark Noble might start his first game because February after making two successive appearances from the substitutes' counter. Other midfielder Joe Cole, who also got off the seat against Wigan last weekend following his recovery from a hamstring issue, could be considered for his first start since March 2. Fit Notes: How Manchester City end in 2013 will probably show critical in whether his position is retained by Roberto Mancini as manager this summer. Slide away and allow Manchester United to win the group by a report border and Mancini will be fighting, but a brilliant finish and FA Cup achievement may swing your choice in his favour. Beating West Ham is the first objective and it ought to be routine. Betting: Home 1-4, Away 10-1, Draw 5-1. Statistic of the game: If City lose it will function as the first-time they have endured back-to-back defeats in 100 Premier League games.
