Bournemouth (A) - Sun 30th Mar, 16:30 | FA Cup | Pre-Match Thread

[BringBackSwales]

Fuck me, what a depressing line up that is. Why is he persisting with this dads army bollocks, starting to really fuck me off now

You were fucked off and moaning when we were winning trebles.

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

I love pep and I love this club but fuck me you need the patience of a saint to keep the faith this season… that line up ffs.‍

 

[deano ou812]

Hopefully we get the win,but honestly I can’t see it,maybe for a change we will win by stumbling through the game like a few other sides seem to do throughout a season..

 

[Paul1970]

We are gonna get ragged in midfield. Pep what are you doing

 

[Blue and true]

Looks like it. Baffled he isn't playing today.

Because he's done at the top level. Stubborn as Pep is, even a blind man can see that.

A complete waste of talent.

 

[blue moony]

Is Nico injured ??

 

[herrock]

I am not saying anything about the line up, maybe it will be different this time!

 

[super_city_si]

Someone mentioned we have to get rid of the old guard and take it out of peps hands cos he’ll just keep picking them and they’re right.

 

[bluemoon32]

Were gonna win, come on Cityyyyyy

 

[jimharri]

If you think that midfield is capable of even taking the game to extra-time then I'd love to have a bit of what you're drinking.

We won't need extra time. 4-1.


No; I'm not saying who for.

 

[urban genie]

City......
trolling fans from boardroom to pitchside

 

[Utter bobbins]

And still no Bobb. He was reported to be back in training this week, wasn't he? When he can't even get on the bench today, you'd have to think he's unlikely to feature in the remaining games this season.

Back in training for a week after a broken leg

 

[Xhavenjoe]

I guess at the moment that's probably the strongest side we can put out. Unfortunately it's too old and slow in key areas but hey ho who knows? If Foden, Kev and Gundogan can somehow turn back the clock we could win it.

Turn the clock back.
An appropriate day for it.

 

[Benarbia’s Backheel]

Oh well. I didn’t want to win a trophy this season anyway!

 

[wolviedinho]

My expectations were already pessimistic.

I just don’t get why he can’t phase out the older players.

Maybe they will turn up today but they have not this season. Play the young lads and see the season out.

Hanging on like this to players who have hit an age wall is madness.

 

[Keeper!]

We won't need extra time. 4-1.


No; I'm not saying who for.

Save it for the match day thread

 

[BlueNirvana]

we got the OAP, you know me, we got the OAP

 

[Bellamy's Caddy]

Hope Foden has a good game today, but not sure another game out of position is going to be the confidence boost he badly needs. A good performance and a few goals will hopefully change that though obviously.

 

[jimharri]

Turn the clock back.
An appropriate day for it.

Clocks went forward.


;-)

 

[Blue and true]

We brought in some midfield bite to cover Rodders and then glue him to the bench. Midfield looks pedestrian but I trust we'll get the job done.
