Your first paragraph is pretty much all I was saying with my initial post.That’s fine, I would be a lot more confident if Kova was in place for Gundo. As I believe his recovery is so much better and as with any wingers tasked to beat players, at times we will loose it.
Anyway we are all wanting the same thing. 3 points City. Come on!
Surely he was eased in against inter Milan with 45 minutes. I think he’s too important to leave out for a game like thisWith foden playing 74 games last season pep is playing it right with him easing him in its a long long season with the possibility of another 70 games
Not if it was the Kev midweek before he came off..More gutted that Kev can't play
I agree mate. I have had concerns about previous lineups and Pep has had it right. So in him I trust! Just hope that Gundo gets back up to speed too.It's a bold move and typical Pep. It will either be a great success or a big mistake. We'll soon know.
Foden is a mystery. He played the second half against Inter and, with Kev missing, you'd have thought he'd be in the team today. Has he picked up an injury in training that the club has kept shtum about?Man this is a hella risky lineup
We lack a lot of physicality there, probably why he's brought in Walker for Rico to make up for it
Sure Pep knows what he's doing but having Gundogan over Kovacic and no Foden are strange moves
Yeah score 4-5 early doors then get doku and savinho off ;-)Your first paragraph is pretty much all I was saying with my initial post.
There’s a worry we will be caught on the counter when we invariably lose possession high up at some point.
If we don’t lose possession and the two wingers do what we all know what they are capable of then we could score 4 or 5.
Fine lines.
