I'm sure this won't be the formality many are expecting. They'll be really up for it, and newly promoted teams can often be a threat early on in the season. I expect us to win, but think it will be a tough game.
 
We've seen this kind of game before where we all reckon we're up against a weak team and should win easily. Sometimes we're right (Bournemouth 4-0's, Palace at home, Norwich 7-0 a few years ago) but it feels like half the time it turns into a tough game (Norwich and Villa 0-0's, Leicester last season- although that was a tactical disgrace that will never happen again). So I think we'll either lose 1-0 or win 4-0. Could go either way.
 
Any chance he may start Bravo in this one given his good performances for Chile?
 
Easy win tomorrow, that don't mean I think anything less of brighton, I just think we're two worlds apart I'm going 6 nil de bruyne hat trick. Good luck for staying up though :) MCFC OK
 
Some interesting scenes from last Sunday vs Atletico:

2 back lines standing deep and close, very packed in the box.
0-1: new Aussie keeper Ryan with a howler...
1-1: Watch out for German Gross at set pieces!, also look how they are moving the wall aside




Can't wait. Hope Pep wants to start with a statement from the off.
Score first and keep a clean sheet. 2-0 City would be fine.

Always wary of being too confident. Get married tomorrow and will be doing speech at kick off time (booked wedding nearly 2 years ago before i knew we'd be on). iPad on top table.
3-0 city.
 
Brighton will have a good start in the match but entertain a team gunning for the title this season. They'll hold us for maybe 45 minutes at best before we break their spirits. Floodgates will open. 0-3 City.
 
PEP: We had one of the oldest teams in the Premier League so we decided to put energy in the team for the next five, six years.

PEP: We have spent of course, but all the teams have spent. In the market we will see what happens until the end of August.

PEP: In the next few years City will buy one, two, maybe three players. (The current players) are young and will stay for the future.

PEP: Hopefully next season I will be here and we are not going to spend how we have this season.

PEP: We are here to win the games. I am honest in my job and I will do my best. I feel the same pressure. Every game is complicated.

In his first presser of the new season, Pep says "there will be more transfers".

If I was an old cynic I could say ' don't do it' , still time to pull out.
But I'm not so good luck mate , hope you have a great day , with the wedding gift of a big win for the blues.
