It's too early for any game to be a must win.

Disagree - some won't like it but the rags will be a threat this season and can't let them get too far ahead. That's why we need to win our home games.

For one we are away and also must win means you have to win else all is lost. We have another 35 games to alter any benefit
to our rivals. Having said that, i think we'll win anyway.

Based on performances there is an arguemnt that Sane GJ and KDB could/should all be dropped in particular Sane and GJ....with sterling and Bernardo Silva replacing them....

No excuses. No well we missed loads of chances and they took their chances. Just fucking beat them.

To be fair we have done very well against Bournemouth since they came up so more of the same please.

On Monday's form i would rest KDB , Sane and Merlin , thought they were below their usual high standards , EDERSON - DANILO , VINNY , OTTO , MENDY // STERLING , YAYA , DINHO , BERNARDO // AGUERO , JESUS (and to save Sky the trouble this XI cost around £300m or more than Bournemouth's seasonal tourist income for the last decade)

 

[01cravend]

Ederson
Kompany, Stones, Otamendi
Danilo, Mendy
Dinho, Gundo or Yaya
Sterling, Jesus, B.Silva

In Bar Mello Mello on the Main Street in Boscombe. Bar manager says a City fan is working behind the bar tomorrow so we are fine in colours. It's an official away fans pub

Not according to todays Guardian as City must win to keep in touch as Mourinho is a notorious uncatchable front runner
