    “Everyone is looking forward to tomorrow’s game against Burnley. It doesn’t matter who the opposition is though.”

    “All we want is the victory and the three points to help us achieve our end goal of staying in the Premier League.”

    “Portugal was very good to get to know my new colleagues and hopefully I will have enough confidence in the game tomorrow.”

    He's confirmed that he almost signed in the summer.

    “Tomorrow is one more chance for us to take points. There is good spirit, the players are confident.”

    “We respect Burnley. They have had a good season so far, but we want to win. We have to prove that out on the pitch.”

    “The fans were fantastic last time out at the KCOM Stadium and we need them to get behind the team once again on Saturday.”

    Hernandez has returned to training and is available to play tomorrow, But Evandro will miss out with a calf injury picked up against Arsenal.

    Silva says he is unaware of any interest in Abel Hernandez from Chinese clubs.

    Davies (hamstring) and Dawson (calf) remain sidelined and are expected to return in three to four weeks' time.

    If Daws is fit play him.

    Jakupovic
    Elmo Daws/Rannochia Maguire Robertson
    N'Diaye Huddleston Evandro
    Markovic Niasse Grosicki

    Bench (if Daws fit): Marshall, Rannochia, Meyler, Maloney, Tymon, Bowen, Mbokani

    Bench (if no Daws): Marshall, Elabdelaoui, Meyler, Maloney, Tymon, Bowen, Diomande

    Has Dawson actually been that good this season?

    Ah rats Evandro is out. I guess that means Meyler plays. Or I'd be tempted by Maloney. Although Silva seems to see Tymon in midfield too...

    Losing Evandro is a blow, particularly with Clucas suspended, maybe two strikers tomorrow?

    Yes, could be an open game if both teams go 4-4-2. Probably be Gray and Barnes up front for Burnley although there is talk of having 5 in midfield with Tarkowski sitting behind Barton and Westwood....in that case his extra physical presence and superior hold-up play would give Ashley Barnes the edge over Gray.

    Hernansez available. Hmmm. I still expect 1/3 up front rather than 2. although a 4-4-2 of:
    Jakupovic
    Elmo Daws Maguire Robertson
    Markovic Huddlestone N'Diaye Grosicki
    Hernandez Niasse

    might work. I expect

    Jakupovic
    Elmo Daws Maguire Robertson
    N'Diaye Huddlestone Meyler
    Markovic Niasse Grosicki

    If a Hernandez sale to China is agreed, would he play tomorrow?

    The pitch took a hammering last night. Interesting reporting on the game by the local bods. 'Over 13,000' making it sound as though it was a good gate, mentioned on SKY about FC's 'new' supporters and again locally today, watched on SKY and besides the opening five minutes you could hear a pin drop in the stands, and people say the atmosphere at City is poor.
    Big mention of FC's 'legendary' light show on SKY which City paid for and as far as I'm aware FC don't contribute anything for.

    Looks like they got the Dawson/Hernandez prognosis the wrong way round.

    Wasn't expecting Abel back until late March and was thinking Dawson might be available this weekend.

    Vokes was very poor in the air against Lincoln last week - so will likely be back on the bench.

    I'd expect that would be the starting line up

    The SMC paid for the new floodlights and they were a Premier League requirement, so only done for the benefit of City.
