7 players out after 2 games is pretty bad

Bloody hell Chris, cheer up lad

 

[malg]

Are we doomed yet ?

Happened yesterday.

The bench is very weak from an attacking perspective, but guess that was always going to be the case with three forwards out in Cherki, Foden and Savinho.

i think o'reilly is capable of changing a game, he has great instincts getting into the box

 

[Mayor West]

61% win on the voting, fuck me we have some negative buggers on here :)

Negative??? That's crazy high for Brighton away!

 

[malg]

I dare anyone to moan about that line up today

Bookmarked for the Matchday Thread.....

Alot better team than last week. Come on City stuff em get out goal average up as well...

Why have Brighton named 10 substitutes thought you were only allowed 9!

Turn that frown upside down :)

 

[Semper aggressus]

Good to have Rodri and Ait-Nouri back.

 

[Kippax Street 1880]

Fuck off Tracy is mine I saw her first ;-)

Third poster who has staked a claim to her in 5 minutes! Maybe she can bag a City player after all!

 

[Bewar3them00n]

Happy to see Khusanov back, & Pep fixing the lack of recovery pace at the back

 

[malg]

Can't believe he's starting Stones. Ffs....

 

[Fordyboy46]

Defence is a big concern today

We will need to change shape rather than attackers if things aren't working.

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

Where is Phil?

VAR fella

May aswell get the most out of him before England break him again

 

[NorthamptonBlue]

Im perplexed too. Felt too early for him to come as No.1 (even before last week), so why bother signing him. I know other clubs were sniffing around him but if he isn't ready, then he isn't ready! As you say, seems clear he needs at least a couple more years of development and we just cant afford to give him that, if we want to compete for the big prizes. Hope im wrong too, time will tell

Next match either Ederson or Donnarumma will start.

Where is Phil?

Still at creamfields

 

[mosssideblue]

Come on lads
