Apparently…

Apparently…

Nothing to fear against a side like that.

 

[Rammy Blue]

Others saying Saka definitely not in squad.

 

[Ric]

Apparently…

Saka not even in the squad either, apparently.

[Claytop]

No Grealish or Akanji, bit of a surprise.

 

[levets]

On Bein sports, reporter just asked Haaland what threats Arsenal can pose City. Haaland said “ I haven’t really thought about them”…. The reporter said “Do you think that’s the right mindset”? Haaland replied “ My mindset is to focus on my game”…. Good lad!

Jinx!

 

[Ric]

Happy with that team.

 

[SWP's back]

Mad

 

[Claytop]

Stones on the bench too.

 

[Chi-town blues]

Apparently…

Lol the need to write first and last name to make it look like larger than life bullshit .

 

[SWP's back]

Like that. Suddenly feeling more confident if both teams I’ve seen are true.

 

[RayCTID]

Other than Akanji over Ake I am happy with that team. Fingers crossed Rico Lewis will take the opportunity to really stake a claim.

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Glad he's managed to fit Phil in the side. Very surprised Akanji doesn't play.

 

[mosssideblue]

Good line up

 

[wolviedinho]

Gvardiol stepping into midfield? Good team if true.

 

[TrentGrisham]

No Grealish or Akanji, bit of a surprise.

Agreed. I thought Akanji's pace would be useful versus Nketiah's.

I think Grealish is always a player you want away from home with his ball-retention ability but if there's a choice between him and Phil, I think it's a relatively easy one.

 

[Blu1]

Gutted no Rodri but Lewis will cause them issues

You watch him in midweek?
