Cool.I know.
Aguero gains nothing by leaking the team. The fact that there’s still loads of blues who think it’s him is weird as fuck.And he won't I reckon. Said on Wednesday was too big a game. (Or Sergio wasn't there so he didn't have a mole (ducks for cover))

This is the first Derby I can remember that I'm not nervous. I don't think it's because I think we'll win, I think it's because I know how much better than them we are and that the league is in the bag.
That said, my life will be hell in work if we lose! It's been shite since Thursday, so I'm hoping I can give some back on Monday.

Even so, there are still a fair few who are peddling the shite that it’s him.It was rather tongue in cheek my friend.

I feel the same,its an anti climax type feeling.Much of the gloss has vanished because of the timing but also because of Wednesday's result and the significance of Tuesday.This is the first Derby I can remember that I'm not nervous.

Saying all that its still a derby,and the requirement to play our best team is a necessity.

Can see where they're coming from, what with Jose breaking the story earlier in the season that Sergio was unsettled and the fact that he is often peddling positive Kun propaganda (something I would love to do for a living). But no, I don't think it's him.Even so, there are still a fair few who are peddling the shite that it’s him.

“We have to put that [Liverpool] match to one side and concentrate on this game. I understand totally how our fans feel. As I said earlier in the week, I am a Barcelona supporter and if we were able to win the league at home to Real Madrid then that is special, no one can deny that. I know our fans, who were so good on Merseyside in the last two games, will be so, so happy if we win this evening against our neighbours.”
Peps programme notes. Doesn’t suggest a hugely weakened team.

Full strength today and full strength on Tuesday means 4 games in 11 days.
I don’t understand how so many believe that will happen. Kompany is 32, Silva is 32, Fernandinho is 32. Otamendi is 30. Walker and De Bruyne have played virtually every game this season with little rest. Maybe Raz, Leroy and Jesus could handle that workload but even their fitness would suffer. Could understand if we had easier matches but Everton away, Liverpool x2 and the rags in between is a very hard set of matches to have in 11 days.
There’s only so much the human body can handle.
Those thinking we’ll go full strength today will be severely disappointed.

Players would play 3/4 games in eleven days at a world cup? I think these two games are equally as important it should be full team both games.Full strength today and full strength on Tuesday means 4 games in 11 days.

Agree, Pep will no doubt make changes. Both games are very important, however we can win the league on another day even though us fans want it done against them in red. Tuesday is a must win by a certain scoreline

Yes they would play 3 games but not 4. And those 3 games are likely to be one tough match maximum. Hardly comparable to our run.
