Not to sub Kovacic would he ridiculous. The ref/var surely will want to rectify the mistake ASAP.

I'd replace him with Doku or Grealish

 

[blue by birth]

We could be 1-0 down, you guys absolutely should be down to 10, the usual Michael Oliver shitshow against Arsenal

Fuck me you must be Gary Neville...

 

[prestonibbo_mcfc]

Yes, we are basically playing with a passenger at the moment. The problem is who do we bring on to avoid getting overrun in midfield.

Foden into midfield and Jack/Docku onto left.

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

There’s absolutely no point sending Kovacic out there second half it would be a dereliction of duty, he’s done his job (I liked the one on Odegaard) and Lewis is wasted in that role when we don’t have as much ball, we need Doku’s pace & unpredictability, and you can bring anyone in for Kova, he isn’t being asked to do too much defending so Nunes should be fine in that role

 

[discopop]

Haaland has been the only bright spot of that half, Less said about Kova the better and Ruben has been pretty sloppy.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

All in for paquetta in january. We have fuck all midfield without Rodri

He doesn’t replace Rodri at all though

 

[GOULDYBOBS]

Time for Calvin

 

[Frankie lad]

Kova can’t come out second half.
Doc on
This is Newcastle revisited.

 

[wolviedinho]

Kova to score the winner?????

The Arse would be twitching then -:)

 

[Keeper!]

Never understood players on a yellow making stupid challenges l8e Kova did, absolutely no need in that area of the pitch

A player who is struggling on the pitch, he looks lost the last two games, incredible after such a wonderful start to the season

 

[Beanhead]

Bring on Doku. Bring on Nunes. Get Kova off.

This and only this… will lose my shit of the Croatian trots out for the second half… Doku is a great idea against a panicked Arse.

 

[DMA's]

Genuinely feel for the neutral fans who who watched that across the world

 

[Johnny Mars Bar]

Hope we take kovacic off as he is lucky to still be on.

Would like to see grealish play kovicic role, doku for lewis.

We shouldn’t be taking Lewis off but I think we all agree Kova needs to be yanked.

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

Kovacic lucky to still be on the field.
Pep needs to hook him.

 

[bluemoon32]

I think we're still suffering from the sheer number of games played last season plus the bloody world cup. We've hardly sparkled in our early games though we clearly have the better players.
Gundo was a major loss, and KDB's injury is hardly a surprise as he's been overplayed by club and country for the past few years.

Gundo was indeed a huge loss, we havent come close to replacing him

 

[N1985]

Theo Walcott with his Arsenal knickers firmly pulled up.

Kovacic winner and Kyle to windmill his cock on Legoheads face.

Get Doku on. He'll have Ben Shite on toast.

 

[Haaland94]

Foden into midfield, Doku (for Lewis) on the wing, Nunes for Kova.

 

[Keeper!]

He’s not giving cover for Rodri though. We need bin Phillips in the summer and bring a proper Rodri rotation/competition this summer.

We have said that for 2 seasons,

 

[city warrior]

kovacic is a terrible DM , get him off before he gets a red bring on grealish and move berny back there as we are wasting him sat out wide

Are you even watching the game? Bernie is the DM....

 

[MadchesterCity]

Get anyone on for Kovacic
