[Tevez City]

You taking the piss? lol

I believe Delap is better Striker than Raheem & Grealish.

Instead of playing them out of their fav position, I would rather try Delap.

How many times have you watched Delap play in men’s football? You saw Athletico’s defence last week, and you now want to play Delap at their place? Just fucking WOW

Im really pleased with the amount and quality of the chances City are creating. If the finishing rate can climb we are in for a brilliant end to the season. 1-3 City.

Apparently not, unbelievably

Laporte
Cancelo

Rodri
Gundogan

Foden

Going to be a seriously tough test this game. First goal is massive in this game hopefully it goes our way.

I'll go for a 1-0 win.

He may be a better striker, he isn't a better player, and certainly not better for the team. Not yet anyway.

Wouldn't mind that, but think Mahrez will start.

It’s a strange one to call. Will they sit deep again with 2 banks of 5 to keep it tight and then try and pile on in the last 20 if it’s still tight? My gut feeling is to sit out Bernie and KDB - the way they play is vital against Liverpool - and we have to factor in the Brighton game too.

They will sit back until the last 5 minutes of the first half then try to rush us when the players are switched off. Then if that fails, sit back until the last 20 minutes. It's what they do in all big ties.

Yeah could well be Mahrez starting. I just think we looked better when Foden and Grealish came on as subs in the first leg. Wouldn't mind either Grealish or Mahrez starting to be honest.
