There were a few players off the pace last game, I'm hoping they all just had bad games at the same time and it's out of the way, rather than having different players off form over a number of games. Some of our play was pretty good in the derby, even though we got beat. Finishing was poor, gave away a silly pen and KDB seemed to think he was supposed to be passing to rag players. If we can avoid that tonight I think we should be OK.

Looking forward to the meltdown on here when the team gets announced, if Pep puts in a few of the players copping flak from the boo boys, or God forbid, Mendy gets a start!

Like you I've avoided any football but have just seen that some people have been calling out KDB so I felt honour bound to defend the lad. If he had been doing something wrong off the pitch fair enough but the lad is trying to get back to full fitness.

Come on City, Come on City.

Bonkers.

I’ll be the first to admit he’s been poor (if Mahrez played as badly he’d be hung, drawn and quartered) but this is KEVIN DE BRUYNE.

He’s our best player and will be instrumental in deciding the fate of our season. He has to play himself back in to form, no debate.

Which is exactly why Pep picked him on Sunday in my opinion. He was looking at the bigger picture.
 
If we're not winning with an hour gone, please bring on Sergio. Do you know all those chances we routinely miss towards the end of games, when the other team have been passed to death and are out on their feet, get that bloke with numero 10 on his back to stand 6 yards out in the middle of the goal and just watch what happens
 
Think this will be a bit like the Villa match, a tricky, tetchy battle and we’ll have to be patient. Need Phil and Bernardo to start.
 
It’s hard to guess what Pep will do tonight in reaction to last Sunday but with a full squad available i expect a lot of changes. Maybe something like this.


Ederson
Walker Dias Laporte Ake
Gundogan Rodri Bernardo
Torres Aguero Foden

If Ake isn’t ready I wouldn’t be surprised to see Mendy.

I'd be horrified to see Mendy. I'd rather play Meghan bloody Markle there.
 
How many games do we think it will take KDB to find his form?

Been involved in a few now and he arguably looked worse in the United game than he did in his first one back!
