Brentford (A) - Wed 29th Dec, 20:15 | Pre-Match Thread

[Eccles Blue]

Mods….(tongue in cheek here) please can we now close that ‘Phil and Jack on the lash’ thread now? We can surely relax now? Daddy Pep has ungrounded them now!
;-) ;-) :-)

Billion pound squad. Didn't take long.

Contractually obliged, no doubt.

Have Rodders and Walker got covid?

pep isn't confirming anything but it sure seems that way.. they both randomly picked up 'knocks' after seemingly finishing their respective last matches fine.

 

[MadchesterCity]

What a gash fucking kick-off time.

At least amazon coverage is decent and we can enjoy the Liverpool wake

 

[MCFC1993]

Bernardo and Dias one card away from suspension and the reset is after this game, yet both playing. Is Pep aware of this?! Big test for Fernandinho playing again in short time

Threshold has already reset, it resets after 19 games, not the end of the calendar year.

One of Kyle’s best friends died recently in tragic circumstances and Pep mentioned that in his Press conference apparently.

My dear old Dad (RIP) was 6 1/2 months old the last time City played Brentford in the top flight.

Yep couldn't wait to mention the money

 

[WestGorton]

Frank saying our football is modern art. I like that.

Give it time. Wait till they get the cash nod and they will peel their pants down like the others do.

 

[Inter Me Nan]

not sure why we’re starting with Fernandinho

Because Rodri is out?

 

[abu13]

Looking forward to getting a good look at Toney up front for them, hoping to be dissapointed.

 

[Barcon]

In case I fall asleep watching this Chelsea game, can someone copy and paste this and post it in the matchday thread just before kick off please?

Come on you Blues.

 

[Vienna_70]

Will be interesting to see how we line up with that 11. Back 3 or Ake at LB?

Bernardo starts but Gundogan doesn't is a surprise and contrary to what we heard.

The latter, I would think.

 

[citytill1die84]

Squad comparisons lol YCNMIU

‘Decent’ focus on money, for sure!

 

[mcfc_ms]

Oh look, Amazon comparing squad costs

 

[JamesMCFC]

Is it only us who get the squad costs compared?

 

[Ric]

Surprised Gundogan and Zinchenko aren’t starting, but hopefully that team should have too much for Brentford.
