Barcelona vs City - pre-match thread

[razman]

From Telegraph

At the Nou Camp for Barcelona v Man City. Aguero on the bench.. and not currently taking part in the warm-up with the other substitutes

Can see the logic in not playing an out and out striker, as flooding the midfield is probably our best hope of controlling possession. Don't think it's a personal snub to Aguero based on his work rate, like some have suggested.

am i the only one who likes this kit?:)

surprise selection but i think we can get something out of this game

There's something weirdly interesting about it. Not sure about "like" though!

 

[Ric]

To be fair if he needs to throw a striker on to score, he's always going to choose Aguero, so Iheanacho may have just been a wasted spot.

Yeah, fair point.

Aguero doing a tevez! Haha

Brave formation, hope it works or their will be Spanish omelette all over Pep's face!!!

Reckon it will only come once the match starts pal

Nah it says the program has already started, don't think Sky get the 'freeview' games tbh.

Hmm, that's odd.

If you see anything on social media like the above and people claiming it to be a Tevez, ignore it, he didn't warm up against Everton either.

He was the only one who didn't warm up against Everton as far as I remember.
