Bournemouth (a) pre-match thread

[Dax777]

Really don't understand the "it'd be stronger with Kun instead of Jesus" comments. Have people actually been watching Sergio in our first two matches? Apart from his one goal he has been one of the worst players on the pitch. He'll come good, of course, as he is world class, but he has looked well off it and was pretty bad against Everton.

Sergio will come good coz we will create lots of chances eventually, but this may sound controversial, but I don't think he is World Class anymore. His pace and burst seem to have dissapeared. Still has that average and hopefully his confident ball strike will return. But I think the pace might be gone good.

I feel like Jesus will surprise some today.

No way should an opinion be controversial

Ederson at right back is a surprise.

More surprising than playing 12 men without a keeper?

The FA surely will want a word after this...

Yes Pep,

"I admire the way they play, they don't just defend and hit long balls."

There's a lot of old-fashioned people on here. Guardiola wants a squad of footballers who can play in a variety of positions and a variety of systems, which will change not only from match to match but within the matches as well. I rather suspect the days of fixed formations and predictable starting 11's have gone and I, for one, am all in favour of that.

I think we are a different animal this year though

Delighted with the team. I'd swap Sterling for Sane and Walker for Danilo and Gundogan for Ferna and that's our strongest starting eleven

Currently Sterling is better than Sane.
