They quite literally booted us from pillar to post in this fixture last season. We owe these fuckers a hiding

 

[MCFC1993]

Another away game against a team in the top 5!

Need a bit of revenge for last season, ref let them get away with murder.

That said I like Potter and in general they play some decent stuff. Won't be an easy game.

-------------Ederson
Walker---Dias---Laporte---Cancelo
---------------Rodri
------De Bruyne---Bernardo
RM/GJ---------Foden--------Grealish


West Ham in the Cup after this, so plenty of time to give Stones, Gundogan, Zinchenko, Fernandinho, Palmer minutes then.

Wrote it off.

Father Dias 3 game ban coming out of this one.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

We used 16 players in the Brugge match which didn't include Stones,Zinchenko and Jesus.
Its all about using fresh players over the next few weeks.

Going to the game and can't wait. Just hope it works out a bit better than my last Brighton away - hammered 4-0 in the FA Cup at the old Goldstone Ground!

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Hairy arms involved again, may as well be Superbia.

We seem to be clicking and playing within ourselves. Brighton are poor upfront, our backline is solid & we create lots of chances.....so somewhere between 0-5 & 1-0 for the scoreline. ;)

Seriously should be a 3 goal victory, quite a gap from last night to Saturday teatime and with a CC game after it which will involve lots of rotation we should be able to play at our preferred tempo for 90 mins.

 

[lionheart]

Brighton are dirty fockers and Foden & Grealish will be targeted. Would not be disappointed to see them rested. An ideal game for Dinho to step up to the plate.

 

[M16 citeh]

Is it just me or do these usually kick us off the park with impunity. Will be a tough one 2-1 city

 

[A J Styles]

I'm guessing this is when we debut the blue 3rd kit and get pelters for it online. I've seen it in club shop its actually alright in person but for the armchairs and twitter police it will be the worst thing ever.

 

[Fat Jim]

Play same team as last night and give them a pasting.

Plenty of time for rotation against west ham

 

[BamberBridgeBlue]

We owe these fuckers.

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

We owe these one for last year. Some of their backroom staff were cunts after the game at theirs where they kicked us off the park as well. I want fucking payback on the pitch.

 

[youngbob]

Good team, Brighton. They don't score or concede many.

Ederson
Walker, Stones, Dias, Cancelo
Rodri
De Bruyne, Bernardo
Jesus, Foden, Grealish

Last years game was one of the most corrupt i have seen, and i think it was after we won the PL so i can only think of gambling/betting
Atwell had his usual City game, literally played to the crowd and gave them everything and Moss on Var his usual self as still no idea how Jesus did not get that penalty at the end.
Atwell/Tierney etc should be no where near our games, its too obvious whats going On. think the club needs a few more up to date dossiers like they did when we had Mason removed from our games previously

 

[Dirty Harry]

Didn't Pep say words to the effect of " we'll remember that" after what they did last time ?

I doubt he has forgotten and neither will the players, so I'm sure we'll be fired up to fuck for this one.
