Paris Saint-Germain (A) - CL - Tue 28 Sep 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

Really tricky one re selection. The lads gave a hell of a lot yesterday and have an equally tough and vital league game next weekend.

I can’t imagine we’ll go full strength against PSG with it not being the knockout stage. That would put us at a disadvantage so I’m not necessarily expecting anything out of the game and would view a draw as a bonus. We still have a great chance of qualifying, come what may.

Let‘s save some for the dippers.

Might have to rest one of the Bernardos for this one

Thrice! Love it,much under-used word and more expressive than "three times".
I have a great affection for the English language and words of that nature.

Forsooth, I commend thy worthy observations wholeheartedly.

Can’t see Pep going weak. He’s always put a strong team out in Europe and it’s only the second game into the group. A win here would pretty much take us through I’d say.

I would say Liverpool away is more important than this game. PSG have already dropped point in their previous game. This game isn't absolute must win for us. I reckon pep will start mahrez, sterling, Torres , stones, gundo and rest some key players.

Do you two wear ruffs around the house?

No,around the neck

 

[Chi-town blues]

Lol farmers

 

[Rhapsody in Blue]

Should have one eye on Anfield but we can beat PSG no matter which team we field

 

[blueabdi]

Fucking lol......That front 3 is weaker than Skol.

They can play well

 

[waspish]

Troyes getting some really dodgy decisions going against them nearly every game!

I think we will win by 2 goals.

I'd give Cancelo a break, I think he has played every possible minute for us this season.

Even if Zinchenko is still not fit, I'd give JWE the nod.

Eddie
Walker,Dias,Ake,JWE
Bernie, Dinho
Gundogan
Mahrez,Torres,Sterling

I'd continue pairing Bernie with the DM (Dinho in this case), with the other midfielder given more attacking freedom, which I think Gundogan thrives in (almost like a second striker, like KdB's role against Chelsea).

The front 3 picks itself as you just rotate it out completely.

Match tuesday, stay over night in paris then the plane home on Wednesday, 4 days including match day for recovery and tactics, I think we can go full strength in both games

Fine but the win at Chelski would have taken a great deal of energy out of the team, pressing nonstop. They cannot be expected to play three massive games in such quick succession.

 

[Lavinda Past]

I'll go out on a limb here... PSG don't deserve to be on the same pitch as City.

2-0 City win, without breaking sweat.
