Just a quickie - why 7.30 and not on TV?

Hopefully it’ll be on somewhere in Lanzarote.

Thanks for taking the effort to respond comprehensively. New players have let us down this season. It’s not a dig at them but more expected. I would love for Gvardiol to be playing at as a high level CB not a Lb but I can understand why pep has decided against that.

Replacing the impact of Mahrez and Gundo was never going to be easy. It’s not u fair to suggest that the new players will be able to do that. Look at Phillips, I wanted him to be the new de jong type of player and he never was. He wasn’t even at the level of Gareth Barry.

Anyway, I can see why it looks like the new players are getting the blame but imo they have not been up to the high standards expected of a city player. Hopefully they will after the normal adjustment period. They also may not be good enough.

Gareth Barry was one of our most important, influential and underrated players of the modern era.

Model professional !!

According to PL site there are only 2 games this mid-week
Ours and the dippers - both rearranged fixtures

CL night. UEFA don’t allow games kicking off at the same time as their games.

Wasn't on TV originally, so isn’t now, again also because it’s a CL night.

Yep, that’s the reason.. which is why the dippers also kick off at 7:30 on Wednesday
