[Eccles Blue]

I would never boo a former player and always chant ‘Once a Blue, always a Blue but there is one former player I wouldn’t acknowledge at all. Barton!

[Eccles Blue]

JOHN STONES has to play. :-)

Save him for the CL game. He rules in such games.

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

I would play Ake as a starter, he was solid against Huddersfield and never looked dodgy. We might need to keep an eye on Monaco so it makes sense to rotate a little, but Pep is a better coach than me.

[urban genie]

Very surprised anyone is thinking he’d get anything other than a great welcome back.
A fantastic player for us and he’ll get a great reception in recognition of that.

only bellends would boo imho.

Walker is a city legend

 

[hertsblue]

Tougher than it seems fixture.
The lost to Spurs 3-0 but had 14 shots to Spurs 16, and drew with Forest, Lost to Rags due to a dubious offside and late penalty and Dippers with a injury time penalty and beat Sunderland who also have started well

1-1 when he was sent off in the 55th min. Cisse equalised in the 48th min.

Not sure what the consensus is on this board but - let's not boo Kyle. He had some great years for us. Notwithstanding his off pitch antics. Made some mistakes for us on the pitch in his last year but - let's play nice.

No chance he'll get booed ffs

Why would we boo him? Bit of a strange comment from you.

 

[Ric]

Wouldn’t be at all surprised if we reverted to the same XI we played in the three games before Huddersfield. Presume no-one would actually boo Walker, as you’d have to be an absolute fucking idiot to do so!

You’re not on RAWK.

City fans often treat ex players very respectfully, especially ones that were rather good for us…

Has anyone won more trophies with City than Walker? I think he picked up 17 with us.

Would he ridiculous for anyone to boo him, but there’s always been a section of the fan base who disliked him no matter how good he was for us.

Don’t have the stats to hand, but presume Stones, De Bruyne and Bernardo will have won at least as many?

Khusanov looks to be out though, so there is a defensive change to be made.
