Haaland out for game at Brighton sauce: pep

Never heard of Brighton sauce. Tomato, Brown, Tabasco, Worcester; heard of all of them. And Brighton rock.

I don’t get it why are people voting on we will lose this game …

Have you ever dropped into the match threads? If you did, you would understand.

I have a feeling Haaland is out for the rest of the season, But it could be a blessing and you can not carry anybody at this stage of the season, The false 9 works well enough and Pep will set a system that the players keep the ball and move teams around to open them up,

Doku Foden KDB Grealish Silva Alvarez, all rotating the front line will be more than enough hopefully

when he was out we won 9 out of 10 games and looked much more fluid as a unit, now im not saying we couldnt do with him back because hes a big asset but we do know how to play without him.

Im sure Pep said it was nothing serious on Sat . You just never know with City , they play their cards close to their chest . Fingers crossed he’s back for the game against Wolves at least

Love to see Bobb start as the false 9

 

[SWPISHOME]

De Zerbi has done his press conference and confirms numerous injuries. The only player they have back is Webster.

Lamptey, Estupinan, March, Gilmour, Mitoma, Milner, Ferguson all ruled out.

Enscio having a fitness test tomorrow.

......................Eddie...........................

...Walker...Dias...Stones...Gvardiol...

.................Rodri....Kovacic.................

...Doku.............Foden.........Grealish...

..........................Bobb.........................

I'm sure their will be changes to the team especially after so many tired legs on Saturday, We play Thursday night and then away to Forest on Sunday so the squad will be used.

I can't see KDB playing two games in the space of three days, Not full minutes anyway. Bernie looked fucked on Saturday.

I hope Bobb gets the nod ahead of Alvarez.
