Brighton (a) pre-match thread

[ONTHERUNWITHTHAKSIN]

I bet Guardiola is struggling a little with the decision as to whether to start KDB. Two days training after a three absence with a Wembley final coming up. Not an easy decision to make.

I think I would play Bernardo Silva centrally and play Sterling on the right and Sane on the left.

Alternatively could start KDB in the middle and play Bernardo Silva and Sterling as wide men wih Sane to come on against tiring legs.

Sunday is more important because it’s the next game

If fit Kev plays

he is here soooo

Eddy Walker Kompany Laporte Zin Gundogan KDB Silva Sterling Bernardo Aguero

yep. Team picks itself if KDB is fit.

 

[bavarian blue]

Just one golden moment from Kevin will be enough.

 

[rnblade]

We ABSOLUTELY HAVE to win this game on Sunday, for the sake of football.
Can you imagine the total dipper media wankfest from the final whistle, through to the end of NEXT season as the vermin are called CHAMPIONS in EVERY game up until the last next season.
We CANNOT allow this to happen.

it was in the semi

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Good to see a drill that requires a shot within 2 mins, and to hear Arteta shouting, “Be aggressive!”

 

[Blue Theatre]

Would anyone prefer us to lose 3 or 4 nil, then find out Wolves had scored an injury time winner? :-)

No thanks - there's only so much stress the human brain can take.

If Kev in that video? I didnt see him?

 

[northwichblue]

Just seen the video of the training session, KDB was there, but I never saw him kick a ball though, he just jogged about with the other players in the kick about.you could see him in the background.

A season ticket-holding rag said to my wife as he was leaving the office today "tell Bill that the country is relying on City winning on Sunday".
Apparently he hates us with a passion but when push comes to shove..........

I didn’t see him either

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

I actually think he'll start him, personally.

Starting Kev if he is deemed fit is the sensible call - huge boost to the team and fans alike, one of his trademark passes or crosses could be the difference, if he has a reoccurrence of the injury then we can deal with it better than if he gets crocked after coming off the bench.

Kev and Fern give our midfield an edge, their physicality is missed if one or both are not there.

Big call he hasn’t played well when he’s came back from injury all season

 

[Gigant]

Destroyed Palace away and Spurs at home after injury

 

[SWP's back]

Would anyone take an Aguero QPR moment again but maybe a few seconds later??

No. Stop it. Fucking no. Absolutely not.

It was the best moment ever but it was preceded by one of the worst feelings I’ve ever felt and what’s more, I think it would finish my Dad off and several others.

Nice straightforward 0-3 to us with the goals scored in the first 15 minutes and then keep ball for the remaining 75 minutes. Please.

Not true. First game back, last time, most were amazed at how up to speed he was and how much ground he covered.
Suppose it depends on what the actual injury was and how bad. Personally I wouldn't start him, especially if he hasn't
been full training.

 

[SWP's back]

You can fuck off and all.

No. Stop it. Fucking no. Absolutely not.

This. Just this. Please.

Nothing else to be said.
