Joe Hart may well be taken out of the firing line, but Pellegrini will be expecting Serbian defender Nastasic to atone for his part in the error that led to Chelsea's winner last Sunday. City's left-sided centre back should face van Wolfswinkel another Dutchman who has been on the fringes of the Clockwork Orange's national picture. The service into former Sporting Lisbon striker RVW has not been good so far at Notwich. Nastasic must ensure it stays that way. Joleon Lescott gave another apt demonstration of his credentials by keeping a clean sheet against Newcastle. This will seem ironic, but given that Nastasic's likely partner is Argentine veteran Martin Demichelis, who has one Premier League appearance under his belt, that makes the Serbian the senior of the two.
