Newcastle (H) - Sun 8th May, 16:30 | Pre-Match Thread

[MCFC1993]

Live on Sky Sports for those in the UK. Kick off time 16:30 (BST).

Don't even know what to write for this right now.

All I know is we cannot let that result impact the title race. This team has to win the league.

We fans have to pick the players up.




It's the day after, I suppose I should include some information.

We play the day after Liverpool so there's a strong chance we'll sit 2nd going into this. I think our lads will be motivated to not finish the season empty handed. To win 4 titles in 5 years would be unbelievable, there are 4 games standing between us and that acheivement.

Absentees and Injuries
John Stones
Kyle Walker

Team Prediction:
--------------Ederson
Cancelo---Dias---Ake---Zinchenko
---------------Rodri
------De Bruyne---Bernardo
Mahrez-------Jesus---------Sterling

I actually had Gundogan and Grealish in there instead of Bernardo and Sterling but I really didn't like the balance. I hope Bernardo has 60-70mins in him.

Lose this the seasons over and what a shitter that would be unthinkable

 

[kunaguero10]

Just praying it doesn’t all fall apart now

I’ve got faith they’ll pull it back round again for Sunday

Lose this the seasons over and what a shitter that would be unthinkable

And heads should roll

 

[Leeky]

We don’t need a thread about Etihad atmosphere no excuses just fucking sing your hearts out and push them threw on Sunday, this is going to be tough

 

[Baconsane]

Newcastle should be very worried. We may have spunked the CL- Again, but this premier league is the only thing left to concentrate on. 3-0 city

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

I hope our players are more up for it than some of our bed wetting 'fans'. Get behind the lads and support them or get the fuck out of here with your negativety. City to smash Newcastle 4-1.

 

[Petethemancinleeds]

For once even this set of superstars + Pep need some encouragement off the pitch.

 

[Cotton Weave Blue]

Fuck me I fear the worst after what’s just happened.

 

[Tb1981]

Four cup finals to go now
We know what’s required
No stupid selections, just get the players out there and get it won

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

3-0 I’m going for too. Carry us home and don’t end the season in disaster.

PL champions and retain our title. Recruit in the summer, then we go again.

 

[Tb1981]

For once even this set of superstars + Pep need some encouragement off the pitch.

They fucked up
But we need to get behind them big time

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

They fucked up
But we need to get behind them big time

That's the spirit!

 

[RayCTID]

They blew it in the Champions League but the lads needs us

 

[argyle]

Gonna be knackered.

Tonights events are likely to screw us in this match.

 

[ftg89]

Surprise surprise… before this game there were no tickets available… tickets now everywhere on the seat planner!
we need to forget tonight and create an amazing atmosphere Sunday. 4 massive games!
You can see what the crowd can do tonight…

 

[Dr Quincy]

Win this and all is forgotten. No reason why we can’t. Come on you blues.

Well said. Like I am sure you are I am absolutely devastated tonight, as are my City loving sons (who are in tears and getting shit texts from rag cunts at school who they want to go out and batter) but some of the lashing out in this forum from City “fans” is worse than the rag cunts. Even the Mrs, who hates how much time and money me and the boys spend on football, was looking at indirect flight routes to Paris for us, and to go from that to now is as horrible as it gets. But this team and manager has done us proud, time and time again. As you say let’s get behind the lads on Sunday, it’s what proper fans do, the Geordies will be giving us loads of shit, let’s not give it to ourselves. The league is ALWAYS the main prize, let’s go and win it

 

[Goater=Legend]

This will be one of them tense 1-0 or 2-1 wins. Cant see us playing particularly well

Absolute nonsense isn’t it. Swallowing the media narrative
