I know it’s his last game but playing Kevin when there’s clearly bitterness and resent there is asking for trouble.

If people are really that sentimental and still dining out on the treble, fine. But there’s a real likelihood we’ll miss out on Champions League.
 
OK, so even though everyone's down after the cup final that's a bizarrely negative poll.

We've won four of our last 5 PL games.

Up the blues !
 
Yes, he said he's not spoken to them about it - obviously not telling the truth imo.
Why do you think that? After the game, the players and coach will go home, rest and recover. In training is the first proper chance to review the game as a group. Most likely they will just set it aside and focus on Bournemouth. Penalty taking needs to be spoken about but you would have to speak to Marmoush first and see what he feels about it.

Only conceded more than once in one game in last 10 with 6 clean sheets as well.

Defensively we have been one of if not the best in the league in last 10 matches.

We get our shooting boots back on we win.

Bournemouth on the beach now. Their best CB just had a medical last Wednesday at Real Madrid so doubt he will be starting.
 
Thank goodness this is the last match for me this season, I have only enjoyed a few of the home matches.

Anyway I shall be full of optimism when I return in August.
My sense of optimism in August is going to rest on CL qualification as I think that will be key to bringing in 2-3 good players.

Liverpool are also linked with Kerkez. The transfer talk may well disrupt their squad.
 
I would like to know if Kovacic is injured or ill. I think Pep said that they train this afternoon.
I know you can’t always tell but he was sat near me at Wembley and he looked ok, didn’t look ill. He was happily chatting away, taking photos etc and was sat in amongst the others so assume if he was ill, it wasn’t anything catchable!

He said after the game that the players made the decision on the field, i can't for the life of me imagine it wasn't discussed in the changing room or the travel home - nevermind in the training sessions today. Either way, you'd assume he has a view on it but he made it sound like he didn't have one because he's not spoken to them.
 
There will be a post-match presentation with Kevin and fans will have the chance to hear from him one final time as he addresses the crowd inside the Etihad.
Hopefully be done by 11 then, can imagine a let one but looking forward to it.
 
Do we have 11 men left who want to fight for our shirt til the last second with enough confidence to beat the fourth best away team this season (W7 D7 L4)?

Wish we had.

Pep will be a nervous wreck, players been infected by Pep
and the atmosphere tense with a mix of groans and nail biting.

Can't wait...
