Bournemouth (A) - Sat 24th Feb, 17:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

I think we could lose this one. I'm worried we could lose it badly. Pep might have a brainfart weekend since Bmouth play such a high pressing game, and I think Pep is still trying new things out for that end of season run in.

So we might lose but I think it might be the kick up the pants we need going into the final stretch and help us settle down into a regular selection.

Big games coming up next month, and which I can honestly see us dropping more points in - hope I’m wrong!

Still looking for 1 blues

Whatever else, it would be lovely to not see Walker effectively playing as a right winger …

I’d go:

—————Ederson——————
——-Akanji—Dias—Ake———
———-Stones—Rodri———-
Bernardo-De Bruyne-Foden-Doku
—————Haaland—————

If Kev isn’t fully fit, then Bobb on the right, Bernardo in the middle.

Well there's Liverpool away for starters

Won't be easy. They have been very good under Iraola, especially against the better teams. Hopefully we see a improved performance in the last third.

And please give Alvarez a rest

Thought they had a decent first half against the Dippers. All hinged on the first goal. Dippers scored first and it was over.

My first opportunity to watch City in the Pep era. I live in Bournemouth and as a pensioner I can’t afford to attend City home games even if tickets are available. Also Bournemouth home tickets are rarely available, the ground is tiny by Premier Leagues standards, but my stepdaughter and her partner have bought hospitality tickets for my birthday, bless them. I hope the defence turn up because they have a couple of dangerous strikers, but my biggest fear is jumping up and down when City score because I will be among the home fans.

Enjoy and drink them dry

Have a great day blue.

Someone's gonna get it, and get it hard. You cant keep having as many chances as us and be scraping wins and drawers for much longer, it's 70/1 for a 5-0 and I reckon that's worth a punt

Have an amazing day Blue. Also Bournemouth area based and getting a willy wonka golden ticket would be easier to attain than a ticket for this match so make sure you thoroughly enjoy it.
