Bournemouth (a) pre-match thread

[meeesh]

You think after playing on his own up front for 60 minutes on Monday and being rotated today is reason enough for him to totally disrespect the best manager in World football?

Interesting.

Oh give it a rest lad,he's over complicating things again.dropped the clubs best striker and you think that is ok,rotation ? 3rd game of season ? Is that what you want to call it ? Yea very interesting

I agree with this line up. Said it the other day. Sterling compliments Jesus with his willingness to make the run beyond the back line. Also delighted to see Bernardo start.

 

[greasedupdeafguy]

Yes that was my thought s

I suspect his English is better than you think

still he wont be one that tweets. Will be the social media team

 

[colbee59]

You're arguing against yourself there with those two sentences.

No I didn't Jesus deserved benching as he does today. Pep won't actually drop Jesus in place of Aguero but never mind that I hope Jesus gets an hat trick as at end of day it's all about City winning. On a a side note I'd pick Yaya instead of Fernandinho

 

[schfc6]

Yeah maybe. I guess I just felt since they were both so out of form Kun's seniority would at least for now get him the start. Hilarious that he's tweeting after he knows he's not in the team!

I thought Jesus was really good against Brighton.

I imagine it's based on nothing more than the energy Sergio expended on Monday.

Plus, if it's surprised us, it will certainly have surprised them.

Happy that we've played 2 centre backs and were going to see the 2 silvas play. Surprised it was aguero and not Jesus that has been benched though.

We should however play some beautiful football.

Absolutely useless statistic for predicting player performance for so many reasons.

I love Sergio, too, but this "he should play at all costs" mentality some have is bewildering. He has been objectively bad (and not just by his standards) these last two matches and, apart from not scoring (very unlucky not to in both matches), Jesus has contributed more overall.

Seriously?? Aguero has created far more then Jesus this season with both missing easy chances.

...he set up 2 glorious opportunities for D Silva and Sterling on Monday which they both contrived to miss from about 5 yards, scored against Brighton..how is that "bad:"...it's a lot more than Jesus has offered so far this season

He's created far more? Or had far more chances?
