Arsenal vs City pre-match thread

[aguero93:20]

Sky reckon Navas is at right back and Dinho is in a 3 man midfield with Dave and Kev.

sky just put it up as navas at rb

The old 2-1-1-2-2-1-1... tricky.

 

[Akiva]

I mean, that's a pretty crazy lineup by anyone's measure, but you'd have to imagine it might throw the Arse off a bit too. Either that or throw us off.

In other news, it's nice to see Kompany back on the bench again.

Sky have about as much insight as the majority of us on here lol

 

[Tugay One Cup]

We've obviously put Jackson Pollock in charge of team selection.

An inevitably exciting game just got that bit more interesting.

 

[pudge]

Or it could be Silva or Debryune at DM.

Again, Daxtonian :-)

That's very unfair to call Pep a ****.

 

[Dazzle84]

It seems like a barmy selection, altho i very much doubt it's the 4411 stated. Intrigued.

God I hope so. When I saw the team i thought wtf? But if Navas is right back and fern in midfield then fair enough I suppose. Always thought Navas would be better at wb/rb

 

[uteblue]

Back 4 of Clichy, Ota, Stones, and Navas, sends chills down my spine thinking of how bad this could turn out...

Yea he's better at tackling than crossing, but so is my dog

Sky reckon Navas is at right back and Dinho is in a 3 man midfield with Dave and Kev.

That would make me a lot happier.

 

[Greg.W2]

Navas!!!..
Just hope you haven't fucked it up right there Pep.

 

[Gray]

Saving Yaya for Wednesday.

 

[SWP's back]

A two man midfield of Silva and De Bruyne away to Arsenal. I don't know what to say

It's unlikely to be a boring game?

 

[MCFC1993]

Looks like:

-------------------------Caballero
Navas----------Stones------------Otamendi----------Clichy
------------------------Fernandinho
----------De Bruyne---------------------Silva
Sterling------------------Aguero------------------------Sane

Can't see Dinho at right back with no proper holding midfielder.

Like the attack (although we might miss Yaya's passing) but shows how dire our full back situation is.

 

[cookster]

Fucking roller coaster with Pep. Playing with ten men (Navas) and no midfield.

Can see Sanchez running 40 yards unchallenged before he gets to Stones and Otamendi.

 

[RayCTID]

With Arsenal's pace Navas is a useful defensive player.

 

[kaz7]

I never thought i'd see the day when i wanted yaya in for control in the mid

 

[citizenyank76]

Man. Ferny better be up to snuff going backward today.
