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

Ake or Gvardiol at CB you reckon? I assume Ake but not sure since G was a CB once too.

It will be Ake, with Gvardiol playing high on the left, freeing up Nunes to go inside and be the match winner again :)

Long time since I've been to Bournemouth, in fact only been there twice and that was to see Lancs cricket. Anyone remember the old Pines Express, left Manchester Piccadilly every day at 10 a.m? Last stop Bournemouth.

Anyway bacon butties ready, come on City!

I guess I will wear my scarf...... I'm very superstitious!!! If I wasn't wearing it and something went wrong it would be my fault. :-(

I’d imagine Aké

Gvardiol may never play there again under Pep unless there are so many injuries he’s needed there.

He’s an attacking left wing back now.

Was that the old Dean Park cricket ground?

Looks and sounds like Kev might just be morale support today.

Come on you Dolly Blues.

Always hate the long away games, against underdogs, with a record on the line.

Bournemouth have been playing very well and scoring on the break, two things that can hurt us.

A win would be a very good result today, because it’s clear we are the walking wounded, who have not been lighting up anyone’s life recently.

COME ON, CITY!!!

Bit of smoke and mirror been going on with these injuries I reckon.

He probably just wants to be part of the matchday squad.

He’s barely had 20 games as part of it for the last 15 months.
