Barcelona Vs City Pre Match Thread

[I Hart Man City]

Fuck them. Beat by Burnley but batter Barcelona. Would be typical.

I'm more worried about how we're going to score, it's clear we'll concede some goals that's not the problem really.

What an odd time for a man to turn his back on his principles. In a way I'm disappointed. Think it's the right call though.

He`s damned if he does and damned if he doesn`t !!

Well done Pellers. Team anounced and no major flaps on Bluemoon :)

For now. All i can sayis, all the know betters will be on here, ripping him to pieces if we
do not win.

I hope not but I feel Pells has just fell on his sword !

Glad we are going 4-5-1,but feel although good going forward kolarov is slow and suspect at the back...

Are we playing 4-5-1? Milner and Aguero with Milner upfront in a free role i.e. stoke away 2nd half.
And why wonder about defending when we need to score 2 and 1 more than them.

Who do you suggest he plays at left back

Clichy or switch Sagna to the left,not knocking kolarov just feel defensively he's at times an accident waiting to happen...

Shame Clichy is suspended

Fcuk what a dickhead I am forgot that bollocks,kolarov it is then....

I'd just come to terms with playing a 442 and going for broke. Think Silva will probably play up front though tbh, ala Munich away last year.

We will not keep a clean sheet nor score 3. We have been awful recently and Barca are a way superior. Let's just not get embarrassed.

A positive team selection (I would have been a bit more cautious). Could give us a chance if Nasri, Toure at al put a really hard shift in. My worry is they don't and we don't get enough of the ball.

We are playing Barca. Even if everyone put in a shift, we still won't get enough of the ball.

Plus, we are chasing the game. And playing in camp nou. No points being cautious. Might as well go for it and go out in blaze of glory.

An OK line up but Navas and Zaba could make the team more balance and cause more havoc to Barca than Nasri and Sagna imo.
