All about what Newcastle can do,City‘s defence hasn’t been great,playing woods to get on the end of balls into box,pace on wings running at city’s back line ..

SWP and Shay Given on my telly. Oh, and some fat bloke that played for Everton.

I'd get the fat bloke off, he'll break it.

I'm not a flapper.
It's just that the body retains memories of trauma and there's been a lot of them in the 50 odd years I've been supporting them! ;-)

If I were you I’d book in at the Gp’s tomorrow for a check up.

Hmm, to be expected I suppose after midweek but seeing Mahrez, Foden & Bernardo on the bench…

Agreed, not far off the team that played last ten mins against Madrid and we know there wasn't cat in hells chance we were going to score then. Hopefully Pep won't leave it too late to get some match winners on. Its going to be a nervy one today.

Liverpool should’ve scored 4/5 that day-City start quickly we hammer them

Oh OK. The report I read said they gave a good game of it. But weren't dippers also below strength for that game ? Didn't they rest quite a few regular first teamers ?

 

[deano ou812]

We‘ll know within the first ten minutes how midweeks game has affected the players mentality wise..

How do you kill a circus?!

First heard at the Whalley Range Alhambra, circa 1956.

 

[citymad]

I see the flappers have started early.

not surprising with the starting team, doesn't fill me with confidence.

 

[FantasyIreland]

I'm not confident sorry

Have you tried speaking with someone,or CBT perhaps?

 

[Akiva]

I'm not confident sorry

Wise up, we're the champions

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Jesus has been in decent scoring form recently as has KDB. Sterling, Gundogan, Rodri and Grealish all capable of weighing in with a goal too. More worried about our defence than attack at present.

Anyone else get the feeling sky want us to slip up today?

 

[pudge]

I'm not confident sorry

Same, especially seeing the team.

However, I'll be happily called a wet fanny in two hours time

"today"?

Why do you say this before every game and in the match thread, leave people be and dont be patronising

Exactly.Arguably they look more threatening up front.

Bookmarked.
