[Franny 1234]

It's very unlikely but
A cleansheet would be nice.
It's possible with the Don in net. CTID

 

[remember arthur mann]

If the ref protects us from the marauding thugs, there won't be a problem. But a refereeing system that has been set up against City, I can't see it.

 

[The Mighty Marmoush]

We need to play for a full 90inutes, first 15 today we were poor, last 20 we were not much better,

 

[SSBlue]

We need to be switched on for 90 minutes here- and 113 if the scouse skip rats are losing.

Errmm ... I think you'll find it's 115.

 

[TinFoilHat]

I really want a statement win and hearing everyone singing sacked in the morning to Slot.

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

We will destroy these fuckers Sunday they will have there Candles lit by half time

 

[Bay Area Blue 93]

And he hates this lot (who doesn't), and usually plays well.

Big game player is Bernardo.

 

[Goater101]

Donnarumma; Nunes Dias Gvardiol O’Reilly; Nico G Reijnders Bernardo; Foden Haaland Doku

 

[WestGorton]

Bernardo must play. It's war.

 

[vmsuhail]

It's clear we've improved from last season, but to really believe we've turned a corner, we should be winning this.

 

[Zenmanc]

Donna
3 at the back Dias, Stones, Gvad
Wing backs Nunes, NicoO
Deep midfield NicoG, Bernie
Attacking mids Foden, Cherki
Erl up top.

I know Savi had a good game and Doku has been playing well but we need a solid midfield and D presence to push this one over the line.

 

[Danny Tiatto]

This isn’t going to be easy. They are a very dangerous side with threats all over the park. Infuriating that they seem to have found form right before this match.

 

[Blue Hefner]

They looked solid V Real Madrid but didn’t look anything special.
Bradley can be got at and Salah didn’t look great
But they have some big players so seen as though our corner/set piece record is dreadful, I’d like to see us play short, quick corners. This also limits the chance of being caught on the break

Donnaruma
Nunes Dias Gvardiol O’Rielly
Bernado Nico
Foden
Cherki Haaland Doku

It will be a good test this. If we score early, like in the United game, I think we can turn them over but it won’t be easy

3-1. Foden Haaland Marmoush. Salah for them

 

[Paul1970]

We need to use the long ball and make them uncomfortable with the big man running at them . We know their weakness so expose it .

 

[117 M34]

They are going to target our full backs so need to give them a bit more cover

 

[Newman Noggs]

Go radical and leave Haaland up front at corners so they daren't commit van dyke, their biggest set-piece threat, upfield.

 

[dickie davies]

Only possible change from that line-up would be maybe Stones in for Gvardiol, who’s been a bit sloppy at times in possession recently. And maybe Reijnders instead of Bernardo.

Very much doubt it. Our record with Dias and Gvardiol at CB has been great since February.

I thought Stones’ positive passing last night was very good and that will probably sway Pep to play him this weekend

 

[Saddleworth2]

Only possible change from that line-up would be maybe Stones in for Gvardiol, who’s been a bit sloppy at times in possession recently. And maybe Reijnders instead of Bernardo.

Bernie loves playing against Liverpool. He should start. Thought Reijnders played better last night though.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Go radical and leave Haaland up front at corners so they daren't commit van dyke, their biggest set-piece threat, upfield.

I would assume they’d leave someone back who has more pace than van dick in that scenario. Plus Haalands height is needed to defend corners. Leaving Doku up would surely make more sense?
