Liverpool (A) - Sun 1st Dec, 16:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[Stelea]

Thought that was where he was destined to play when we signed him.

Rodri
KDB Grealish

Don't think it's happened once, but it's not exactly gone badly!

England played him there a few games back and he scored in each I think

 

[SWPISHOME]

Who the fuck is this "Big Steve" guy? I've seen his name mentioned, wasn't he trying to flog fake tickets on the internet a while back?

Just the daft name puts me off - all sounds a bit....scouse....

Not sure who the guy was selling "fake tickets". This Steve guy named himself "Big Steve", He has a YouTube channel and does podcasts with other YouTube idiots.

He does some work for City now, I have know idea exactly what work they give him, I know they sent him to Portman Road for interviews and also had him working before the Feyenoord game at home.

I suppose all these YouTubers like to see themselves as "the voice" of there own supporters for their clubs, Well I think that's what they like to think...

 

[The Lightbowne Cowboy]

Konate out injured for the vermin.

That's positive news ..but Spurs had both their recognised centre backs out last week and that didn't help us much.

 

[traditionalleesy]

I

I have been saying he has the strength to play the DM role since Rodri got injured. I agree with Paul lake.

Not sure about the defensive midfield, would like to see him in the Alvarez role just behind Erling.

 

[Keeper!]

Im not sure Id play KDB in this game

When he has come on recently he looks like he is either disinterested and has simply forgetton how to kick a football...or he is in pain doing so. He lost the ball when pressed on 2 occasions when pressed the other night when he came on.

If he isnt 100% fit he should eb nowhere near the starting line up

For me he needs to get his head together and get on the field, I get the feeling there are very much two sides to this story.

If we don't play him they'll murder us. Knowing that Pep is going to play Lewis who will be completely out of his depth we need Kev to do his bit for the team and have a blinder.

We just need to put Salah out early now.
Maybe Jack could trip him with his hairband

The big question with KDB is how fit he really is and a lack of recent game time/sharpness. I really hope he's 100% fit and raring to go but I don't expect it to be honest. I've voted for a City win but that's mostly because I find it impossible not to 8-)

I voted for a win too, this is my take on Kev.

He's getting older and doesn't trust his body, he even came back from the break with a Grealish type haircut like he was having an early mid life crisis.

Play him and at least we will know that when the time comes there wont be another contract on the table for him if it doesn't work out.

 

[Thaksins Love Child]

Dreading this, hopefully they prove me wrong.

 

[RayCTID]

Dreading this, hopefully they prove me wrong.

It is damage limitation. Just show signs that we can compete for the long haul

 

[Abattoir Blue]

What have we got to lose ? We are on a bad run and form is shot, everybody is already giving Liverpool the points and with a drubbing to boot, Let's just go there and give it our best shot and if we lose then Ok we move on.

The funny thing is, we could be flying and smacking teams by 3 or 4 and top of the league, then go to Liverpool and get done over and the wheels come off and we go home with the tails between the legs.


Watching football and Manchester City over the years it never changes, If there is a story to write you can bet City will be the headline, I leave you this, the opening to the song by the Monkees.. I’m a Believer

I thought love was only true in fairy tales
Meant for someone else but not for me
Ah, love was out to get me
That's the way it seemed
Disappointment haunted all my dreams

THEN WE WIN AGAIN

now I'm a believer
Not a trace of doubt in my mind
I'm in love
I'm a believer, I couldn't leave her if I tried

This sums up being a Manchester City fan

Was saying today - it's probably the first time in 7 or 8 years I've gone into a game thinking that we will lose. But that brings some freedom with it too.

Get behind the boys on Sunday no matter the score. They are all trying and these players have given us the most amazing memories over the past 7 seasons; memories other fans can only dream of.

And anyway, you never know your luck in a big city...

 

[Blu3m00n91]

Need leaders like Dias, Stones KDB starting. Only chance we have

 

[BlueFurn]

It’s 3 points, never the end of the world.. we lose it’s harder, we win it’s still hard… either way they have only won the November cup…
Keep smiling blues.. they aren’t engraving owt yet..

To the regiment….

 

[David Silva #21]

Foden?

Savinho has a better form

 

[David Silva #21]

Where is the defensive midfielder in that side?

No Gvardiol, his confidence is at rock bottom.

Gundogan is the defensive midfielder just like our last game

 

[Big Joe Corrigan]

To the regiment….

I wish I was there.

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

A free hit for us, this. Hopefully it will show we still have the passion, and you never know
