Feyenoord (h) pre-match thread

[paulchapo]

Hopefully we blitz them.early and give players rest before they start burning out. Foden has to start getting some minutes soon.

 

[Andouble]

Pep not giving up that consecutive wins records without a fight

 

[Manchester_lalala]

with what

The team selection.

 

[BuryBlue1977]

Would have liked Foden to start but only a fool would argue with what Pep thinks is best.

 

[Scouse Blue]

Lot's of "strong team" quotes. I'm really concerned with Yaya in there. Hope he does not end up a passenger.

 

[mosssideblue]

Disagree. Yaya, Gundogan, Bernardo and Sterling surrounding Foden or Diaz should be more than enough. There's not a defensive minded player in that midfield.

No probs with you disagreeing, but seeing Foden and Diaz are not playing, your point is rather moot

 

[Thekinkygoat]

Is the point of the CL not to try and win it?

Does the confidence gained in winning every game not help the team improve?

I can't understand why people would want to hold back on selection.

You are guaranteed nothing in the CL. Starting to think you are never ends well.

What are Celtic doing in it then?

 

[mosssideblue]

The team selection.

Your pretty vague. Who would you have picked and why?

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

What are Celtic doing in it then?

You'll have Magic after you.

 

[kaz7]

Everyone seems to think we will just walk this game,it's a CL game,no risks are required here

 

[mosssideblue]

Would have liked Foden to start but only a fool would argue with what Pep thinks is best.

and this place has been full of them again

From BBC updates

18:46
Foden 'world's best'
Man City v Feyenoord (19:45 GMT)

Sam Wallace

Chief football writer for The Daily and Sunday Telegraph on BBC Radio 5 Live

Phil Foden is arguably the best 17-year-old footballer in the world. I like the fact that Manchester City saying he won't go out on loan

To those that watch the youth games a lot more than I do, what do think think about this statement.

Watched Foden in the U17 World Cup and he did look fanstastic, would you put him right at the top?

 

[kaz7]

Harry and dunney on BT with sarky jake

 

[Easy]

Foden should of started. Suprised to see De Bruyne start. A little disappointed but on the other hand I can’t be mad that Pep went strong.

A win will keep our confidence and streak going. Let’s get the game won early and then bring on the youngsters.

 

[kimbanor]

Expect we'll rotate a fair bit now that we've already qualified. Could do with a win here and preferably a draw in the Napoli-Shakhtar game so that we can play a second string in the Ukraine before the derby!

Ederson
Walker
Otamendi
Mangala
Danilo
Toure
Gundogan
B Silva
Sterling
Sane
Aguero

WOW [emoji106][emoji106][emoji4] u hit the «nail on the head» predic. our line up[emoji28]..

«plead tell me oh great one what wil the score be»
if u r correct on predic. the score too i will call «mancity all mighty» haha[emoji23]

 

[purplenose]

Pep clearly wants to do all thats possible to avoid any clusterfucks this eve, get the job done early doors and then chuck the younguns on for 35 mins?

All in good time.

 

[NorCalBlue]

Would have liked Foden to start but only a fool would argue with what Pep thinks is best.

I want to agree with you, but Coldplay?

 

[Newtoncc]

yes very good team and as stated above if we get in front, get Kev off and stirling etc asap

 

[kaz7]

Their star striker is out

 

[kimbanor]

lets give Mangala a chance....he did ok Saturday, i think he will be ok for time...Most thought the same about Deloh when he came for Mendy, amf have shown he is worthy in Peps line up.
