Wolves (A) Pre Match Thread

[gkmcfc]

Last season in the cup they had the better chances but mostly sat back and defended and relied on the counter attack. On another day it would’ve paid off. Saturday will be different given they will have much better players available. That said, as a manager you’re often stuck between a rock and a hard place playing us. We are that good. :)

City will win 3-0 Saturday, Wolves are a decent outfit but if City get into second gear or beyond, no way they will cope with us... Fuck that early kick off too...!

If teams open up and try to attack then we have more than enough quality to batter them.

I reckon Sergio will get a couple more in this one, the man is on fire.

Yea even looking back at the entire season, they were one of the most difficult teams we faced. We've both improved, but I think our matches against Liverpool have taught us how to react to teams that hit us on the counter.

Very harsh to drop either Laporte or Stones, Kompany as well I guess!

Now Laporte is up to speed, Stones back fit and Kompany back in action its gonna be tough for Nico to get back in.

Fans need to "drop " the word drop. Resting rotating keeping in reserve
are alternatives.

Yep, we could potentially play 60+ games so everyone will get plenty of chances.

This! He looks razor sharp.

Could have easily had 5 on Sunday and with Mendy whipping in balls every 2 seconds, he will be in his element. Sergio's movement in the box is one of the best in the world, just hoping both him and Mendy can stay fit all season and we'll give sides some real issues!

Think we'll be back to 4 at the back

Ederson

Walker
Stones
Laporte
Mendy

Fernandinho
D.Silva
Gundogan

Bernardo
Aguero
Sterling

Hopefully get 3 or 4 up and get some rest into fernandinho mendy and Bernardo I know it's really early in the season but think these 3 are going to be really important for us this season.

Sounds more like a premonition than a prediction, you been having dreams ;-)

Sergio is the one you can't rest. Not until it's 2 games a week.
In his eyes you can see he is one who lives for football. In an age when money rules, he would play for nothing , still like a kid. Just before his 3rd goal Sunday, he looked to the bench, he was devastated as he knew his time was up.
At 30 it is incredible . We have others who are similar. I don't care which 11 get chosen.
