[Champions Again Ole Ole]

Dias not Travelling apparently.

Dias not Travelling apparently.

I just saw that as well. Hopefully not the same hamstring that kept him out last year.

Will be interesting to see if Pep plays Laporte.

Oh god two nights in a row, really?..

Stones and Ake you’d think, with either Akanji or new guy on the left

 

[Le Havre Oswald]

To be fair to that croc, he’s still playing professional footy at 41 for Libertad in Paraguay.

Can’t believe he’s still going. That fucker will survive his own autopsy

 

[skillman]

Hopefully nothing serious with Dias. He’s the mentality rock that holds it all together but have faith in the others too - Walker, Stones, Akanji, Ake, Gvardiol and Laporte.

Not a bad bunch!

 

[DMA's]

Reckon team will be:

Ederson

walker
stones
akanji
ake

Rodri
kovacic
bernardo

Foden
grealish
haaland

2 0 city win

Haha. Does that mean I'll have to put pants on?
I remember a game a few years ago that wasn't televised anywhere and some lad at the game put it up on periscope or something.
That was a great match day thread ; )

Palace away with the monsoon

Was it a league cup game?

Might have been an fa cup game, think Jesus was making his protracted debut

It must have been an early round game for it not to be on tv over here.

thought I read it was concussion?

Must have been as it was a 3pm kick off in 2017

How is it apparent?

I hadn't read that anywhere. Do you recall where you saw that?

Debut for Josko ?

 

[Liquidblue]

[Ric]

If it is “just” concussion then that’s a relief, tbh.

 

[Withnail]

Ederson
Walker Stones Akanji Gvardiol
Rodri Kdb Kovacic
Bernardo Haaland Foden

I suspect Pep will pick Jack, but I would like to see Foden start.
