Mixed news for Blues

A PRINTING error means that there is good news and bad news for City fans ahead of Saturday's showdown with double winners Arsenal.

As tradition demands, first the good news - contrary to a report in City's matchday programme Niclas Jensen won't be suspended for the match and so will keep his place as the left wing back.

And now for the bad news ' the programme should have said that it is Sylvain Distin who will miss the match with the Gunners after totting up five yellow cards.

With Distin absent, boss Kevin Keegan will be forced into a reshuffle and is likely to move David Sommeil to the left of the back three and bring back crowd favourite Richard Dunne on the right.

With Danny Tiatto and Peter Schmeichel also set to miss out, City will be short of strength against the champions, though Eyal Berkovic is winning his battle to play after picking up a knock in the Manchester derby.

Does the bad news outweigh the good? Have your say.
