Liverpool (H) - Sun 23rd Feb, 16:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

Here's a great idea , if you see the names Bernardo , Gundo , Nunes or Kovacic on the team sheet , call your local Thai massage parlour and book that massage for 5pm , ensure that happy ending , because it wont at The Etihad .

If we are not careful, we will make the PL title race interesting!

3pts this weekend will put the cat amongst the pigeons, but will Arsenal have the balls to grab the opportunity?

No.

 

[malg]

Would take a point.

Absolutely shameful opinion. I'll make my prediction on Sunday and I'll hopefully be more optimistic....

 

[bluemoon32]

3-2 City

 

[Chak19]

I don't give a toss who wins the league now but would like to win this game like any other. The Real Madrid defeat should have no influence on Sunday.

We have played 11 games against Madrid, Arsenal and dippers since last season and we've won zero, we can't beat top teams anymore.

Didnt know that lol,thats a sad reality.Can't wait to see what summer signings we get and if Pep still has the hunger to overcome this season.

 

[warringtonblue]

Any midfield 2 of Bernardo/Kovacic/Gundogan please.
Need a bit of experience to steady the ship after that shit show.

We've tried that all season and its not worked, unless you like seeing experienced players running through treacle trying to get back and fill the holes they've left

 

[waspish]

If we start more than 1 player over 30 we will struggle

 

[Cityinmyheart]

--------------Ederson------------
Rico----Dias------Ake----Gvardiol
---------Nico-----Kovacic----------
Savio--------KDB---------Marmoush
-------------Haaland-----------------

we win 2-1. Hope Haaland is fit for this one

Had no idea Khusanov was a right back?
Silly me!

 

[Bald fraud]

Hopefully we’ll be wanting to regain a bit of pride and build some confidence back up after that last night

 

[Brad mcfc]

The fans will turn up.. But will the players?

 

[ProofMCFC]

I’m taking the complete piss mate, I’ll lose my shit if I see it one more time. Just preparing myself mentally.

 

[ProofMCFC]

Wow just wow , unbelievable Jeff . Someones as high as a kite

I’m taking the piss mate, I’m just preparing for it!

 

[Gingers Dad]

They are starting to crack. If they were in a real title race they would have buckled under the pressure by now. Let's hope City give them a proper game.

 

[vmsuhail]

Pep hasn't lost a league game to Liverpool at Etihad. Arsenal will be right back in the title race (if they aren't already) after this game.

 

[simon23]

Liverpool always raised their game against us despite their shite form. Now it is our turn. Even the rags got something against them when they were dominant.

Hope so.

It's just there is no viable solution for our midfield with the options we have.
At this point I'd happily see a combo of Nico G and Nico OReilly aa at least there are legs in that middle. However it won't happen and it would probably be unfair on OReilly
