Burnley (a) pre-match thread

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

John has not been good since his injury and has been pushed off the ball really easily,this calls for grit so nico needs to play and eric looks like he can handle himself so i reckon those 2

i agree he hasn't played well recently. however hes coming back from injury and is a class player. hes more then good enough to come in. long term him and laporte are first choice for me. i reckon ota and laporte will probably play tomorrow anyway

Yes, looks like we rushed JS back a bit too soon, (because of concerns, regarding Mangala’s unsuitability to play in Pep’s system and Vinny’s injury concerns), to be honest.

I just don't think the rough housing tomorrow is a good game to come back into,going fowards we are finally in a good place CB wise and the right pair will play at the right time

Yes john was right off and not how he was pre injury,hopefully rusty and a confidence thing after the first mistake which led to a goal

I just watched the pre-match press conference. Just on the basis of that Silva was not ruled out. Pep said it was too painful for him to train yesterday, but we will see today.

Unless someone has said that he was unable to train today, he may yet be available.

Sean Dyche says Pep Guardiola is no longer a champion of youth as he opts to spend on players instead ahead of the game tomorrow.

we need to batter that cocky git

To be honest, and I know we’ve only seen him once, but he looks a bit more able to handle himself when it comes to a physical battle with an opponent (than Stones) as well.

An asset that that will, no doubt, come in very handy at Burnley tomorrow. :-)

He gets on my nerves. Used to like him but nowadays he comes across like he's well up his own arse.

Or the piss can’s arse by what he said about the rags bringing youth through.

Well he is called the Ginger Maureen...

 

[Citizen in Pakistan]

Looking forward to see laporte and zinchenko but i think danilo might play.1-4 to city

 

[Leto]

He can do one for furthering that fucking myth. They had a great crop once in recent times and with the stranglehold they had on the league and it being less competitive they were able to fully realise their potential. For every Scholes, Beckham and STD breeding ground they have a Gibson, Cleverly and Chadwick.

Play them in a couple of games and stick a few extra million on their price tag so purplenose's lackeys at other clubs could buy them for rip off prices. The United Way™.

 

[Roachy]

This will be a hard game no doubt about it. Whilst we should win, a draw would not surprise me in the slightest. The players that are available will have to play out of their skins over the next few weeks to maitain the momentum. Any win and no more injuries ( oh and some decent refereeing if its not too much to ask) for me please.

 

[malg]

So, 21.6% of the Board don't think we'll win! 1 in 5. That's a surprise......

Just seen that bit of Dyche’s pre match press conference.

You’re quite right, let’s ram the whining odious rag arse licker’s bitter comments right down his throat & back out of his arse.

Lot of kind a hostile reactions on here. What he says is not that far from the truth now is it? We do buy a lot, the academy hasn’t brought foreword that many players, and the PL has indeed changed compared to about 10 years ago. The question was not about Burnley but about City.

Anyways, it would be nice for a youngster like Diaz to come on and score a goal. Like it’s nice whoever player scores for us. And tbh I think we will win at Burnley. I doubt Burnley will defend deep as they are at home. If Laporte starts he will be a lot busier that Wednesday. But nothing to be worried about. I’m pretty confident.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

Had a good hard think about this one,going for 4-1 to the blueboys

Shock Horror Malg. I hate to break it to you mate, but “some” of those voting just might not be Bona Fide blues.
