Bernardo on the bench speaks volumes

They're not going to wear a kit with a lot of red in it at a club whose main colour is "claret", are they? It'd make more sense to wear the home kit, which would be a minimal clash with the Hammers' kit

Precious little blue in that kit. Whereas, if you put that beside our away kit....

See my point?

I agree with that. Or even the 3rd kit. Given how different the first two kits are, I'm not even sure what the point is of a third kit. Apart from marketing of course

Good lineup, excited to see JWE and Rico Lewis on the bench

Bernardo out of the starting XI is... concerning

 

[hilts]

No Silva? Wtf!

Not our strongest team but still confident.

Hmm...not sure why Grealish gets a pass after last week's poor performance.

Should have been Alvarez or Bernardo instead of him for me

Does it, what exactly?

 

[coolcity]

A 3-1 win today - Haaland, Grealish, Alvarez scoring.

COME ON CITY!!!

4-0 would be good, that puts us top.

 

[Tony - MCFC]

And we’re off, usual suspects panicking over Bernardo on bench.
Chill out ffs .

 

[DMA's]

Excited to see what foden can do playing rw

I’m not sure what to make of it. Does it mean anything or does Pep simply prefer Gundo against West Ham ?

 

[daflanger]

Strange Bernardo is not starting, but having 5 subs definitely helps!

I think Stones is still not ready! But still happy with that lineup!

West Ham is better prepared than us so I hope we can scrap a win today to move on from this game!

No sale without first buying a replacement.

De Bruyne was equally as poor.

 

[discopop]

Let’s hope it’s getting everybody some game time but Bernie not starting doesn’t look good.

 

[OntarioBlue]

Thats a strong starting eleven as you’d expect but it is one awesome bench. We are blessed.

 

[Luck95]

Interesting choice line up
