Pre Match Thread | Palace v City

[Musampa 209]

Very disappointed with that team

 

[pudge]

Yeah, where the fuck's Raheem?

 

[blueinsa]

Here we go again bemoaning a decision before a ball is even fucking kicked!

 

[kaz7]

2 strikers fucking hell mp

Sterling must be injured

 

[Tricky_Trev]

No Sterling in the squad. Seriously FUCK OFF international football.

 

[IanBishopsHaircut]

Sterling not even on the bench?!

 

[moz]

Pellers 1st mistake this season or is it a masterstroke

 

[HolisticJim]

And here's where the wheels fall off.

We're doing exceptional all season and the MP decides to go back to what has been proven time and time again to simply not work.

Add to that its away from home against a tony pull is team and I c ant help but think of a 1-0 loss to a goal in the last few mins.

 

[Man city fan 72]

Can we really afford to toss games off by resting players this early in the season. Sterling and Silva missing today, but you can bet your life they'll be back in on Tuesday. We'll struggle big time today because of that.

 

[JoeMercer'sWay]

Palace: McCarthy, Kelly, Dann(c), Hangeland, Souare, McArthur, Cabaye, Zaha, Puncheon, Bolasie, Sako.
Subs: Hennessey, Mariappa, Jedinak, Mutch, CY Lee, Campbell, Gayle.

MCFC: Hart, Sagna, Kompany(c), Mangala, Kolarov, Fernandinho, Yaya Toure, Navas, Nasri, Bony, Aguero.
Subs: Caballero, Demichelis, Otamendi, Manu Garcia, Roberts, De Bruyne, Iheanacho.

urgh, where's Sterling? Far too many absentees, need to get and keep people fit.

[BuryBlue1977]

53 million and left on the bench. Gingerist!

 

[Gundogan's Moustache]

What makes him change to 4-4-2 for one of our toughest away games ? We've won the last 10 with 4-5-1 , won't go well imo

 

[BigOscar]

With Sterling and Silva out, I guess he's had to reshuffle as he doesn't really have the options to stick with how we were playing. I'd rather have seen De Bruyne come straight in, but if they don't think he's ready then this is pretty much the only team available tbh

So you don't think Sergio or Bony or both can score today ?

 

[argyle]

Hmmmmm.

Attack will only come down the right and Kolorov will be exposed like last season.

 

[RandomJ]

Since when the fuck was Sterling injured? 442 against Palace give me strength.

 

[MC ID]

442... oooh bollocks i was absolutely in love with our one striker formations

 

[malg]

Fucking BBC fair reporting.......£55m bench warmer.

 

[pudge]

Even with Sterling and Silva not available, there's no need to go back to fucking 442

 

[blueinsa]

As ever, wouldn't swap a single player of theirs for any of ours and if we re at the races will win no problems.

Time for a few on here to start believing in a team and manager that deliver on such a regular basis for us without downing tools and throwing the towel in themselves at the first opportunity.
