Great to see an amazing bench,i do think raz and sane are not really great off the bench iirc

 

[RandomJ]

Kev and Silva will need to put in a shift to help Dinho out.

 

[kanovic]

Love how strong the bench looks, also that foden is in the team! What potential that kid has!

 

[Rammy Blue]

It's not like we will be playing 3-5-2 permanently - for example Pep could take a defender off and switch to a back 4 with wingers coming on.

Sane and Sterling will get their chances.

Hilarious how many attacking options we have, bit light defensively but fuck it.

If it is still 0-0 after 70, nothing nice about that at all

 

[bondsman]

Wow. That team and bench look frightening tbf. Bernardo, sane, yaya and sterling on the bench. That is some statement in itself in terms of squad strength. Nice to see foden and mangala there as well.

 

[St.Pauli support]

Would have expected 433 with Yaya and wingers as well.

Maybe 352 and Dinho in is the more 'defensive' setup for the opener at THE underdog being title favourite.

Pep is a coward :)

He's going to mix it up and it will be fascinating to see just how he does it as the weeks go by.

I wonder if the three CB's will be more of a feature away from home and in Europe?

Let's hope that becomes ever more the case for opposing managers.

 

[ballinio]

Not the team I would have picked, sterling & sane would have been in , maybe later in the game .

 

[mdj0520]

Would have had sterling as the second striker, myself, but hey ho, Jesus and aguero will do I suppose lol

 

[kaz7]

COME ON BLUEBOYS

I'm nervous now after the results today,the smaller teams are going for it

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

We are ready.

What a season this promises to be.

I expect our greatest.

Well maybe the thinking is,if and when Brighton start to tire bring sane and sterling on ..

 

[Damanino]

No excuses today, 3 points only. Anything less is a shit result. Make sure we attack as a team and defend as a team, not only the defenders has to defend but everyone. Hope for a good start for Ederson he needs imo a good start instead of some wobbly conceded goals that can hurt his confidence as confidence is key for keepers. Few mistakes from him and the press will be on his back instantly like with Bravo. But good start with some nice saves can improve the defenders confidence as well and the trust between them.

Come on City!

Sergio will play pretty much every minute till the transfer window closes. Don't think Pep can be arsed answering the same hysterical questions each week.
