That midfield is Weak as Piss

I’d be tempted with O’Riely over Gundogan. Save him if we need a sub.

I agree it’s not great, but two central players out wide helps, Stones at centre back can help overload.

But Bernardo is still one of the best 8’s in the game, Kovacic is a great player.

 

[bert38]

I thought he limped off too! Hopefully I'm wrong.

He was struggling the entire second half

 

[SWPISHOME]

Ake doesn’t look fully fit to me. He’s running gingerly, short steps, and I doubt he’ll be asked to start unless there really is no one else.

It was strange, He looked afraid to get his legs going in certain situations, Maybe he's still not fully fit. He definitely limped off when he was substituted, Hopefully it's just fatigue.

 

[goater1985]

Tough game but we will step up. Still gonna have the best 11 players on pitch pitch come KO. Have some faith Blues

Could really do with KDB, Grealish and Walker being back in the squad for this, otherwise that bench is going to be very weak.

Oh ffs…

You my friend are a magpie :-)

What injury does Walker have?

Banged his cock, helicoptering in the hotel lobby.

[The Black Shed]

Tough game, really tough. I'll take a point right now and no more injuries, thanks very much, shake hands and onto the champs league.

 

[I'm Blue]

Your football team need you!
If you can play it’s time to enrol.

 

[I'm Blue]

Oh ffs…

Probably add Savinho to that list : (

 

[BlueMonkey79]

I'll be delighted if we are within 3 points of the top spot after the international break.

 

[Blue and true]

For once we're lucky the international break is coming up. If the club have any sense they'll bar any of our players from jetting off (yes, I'm aware they can't actually do that). We should still just about have enough to get past Bournemouth but we desperately need some players back mid-November.

 

[simmo]

The delights of Oliver officiating !

 

[Buckshaw Blue]

We really need a second striker. Biggest concern is goal scorers on top of all these injuries.

The Argentinian lad at Atletico looks decent :-)

I hope Pep is over-egging the injury situation but I have a bad feeling he’s not.
