Bournemouth (A) - Sat 2nd Nov, 15:00 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

[DMA's]

Next two away games in the league is be really happy with 4 points we could easily pick up just 1 with our squad as it is..

I really don’t buy this negativity. Yes the injuries aren’t great but we will have a better side than Bournemouth and Brighton out on the pitch by quite a distance. We should win both

1-2 City, a coked up Joe Bloggs to score the winner after getting a call up from the away support

We've got enough to beat Bournemouth and that's not arrogant.Obviously it won't be easy.Last night we went out fighting with several kids. We're champions of England not Arsenal or Villa.
Keep the faith CTID

----------------Ederson
Lewis---Stones---Dias---Gvardiol
------------------Kovacic
-------O'Reilly----------Foden
Bernardo----Haaland------Nunes

Save Gundogan as an option from the bench.

Not sure how Gvardiol is but play Ake if he's even feeling anything.

Team basically picks itself
it's damn crazy how many players we're missing

Honestly that is still a really good side

 

[KingGeorge]

They beat Arse 2-0 the other week. This is going to be a slog.

They played well against us at home last season as well. They are a well coached side.

 

[bluemoon32]

They are a point above the mighty Man Utd, they must be a great side

Only decision really is whether Aké plays or not.

Every other senior outfielder is out, bar McAtee and O'Reilly.

Ederson
Lewis Stones Dias/Aké Gvardiol/Aké
Gündoğan Kovačić
Bernardo Foden Nunes
Haaland

Subs bench will be looking awfully light with just Ortega, Carson, Aké/Dias/Gvardiol, McAtee, O'Reilly and perhaps a EDS player or 2.

They are in great form, beating Arsenal and drawing at Villa.
With our lack of a squad due to injuries and players blowing out of their arses, i think they will beat us.

I think we can force a draw but a win might be beyond us unless we can carve out chances for the Viking.
