Cold n quiet. 4 zip

Gomez is not LB, he is just another AM converted into LB

You may be right but no matter how many times you bring this same point up, he will be playing as a left back, similar to Zinchenkos role.

Tbh the way we play we don't need traditional LB to do the job that Pep asked in there. Anyone with necessary attributes can play there.

Surely were going to beat Brighton

Probably, but nothing is a given in football - as City fans, more than most, should know. That's part of what makes it exciting!

I watched Brighton a couple of times in the past weeks, they are an excellent team without firepower
they don't score enough and Danny Welbeck could not hit a barn door with a banjo, so you KNOW the drill they and he will score,

we just need a result and get the win that will blow the cobwebs of the last couple of games

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

Quite glad the Arsenal game was postponed, the players looked tired against Copenhagen last week and although the game against the Dippers didn’t go to plan, a week without a game is welcome right now. I suspect Pep will go for a strong team, but will want at least a draw at Dortmund next week, to guarantee winning the group, so I predict a 3–0 wound up in the hour, and lots of subs thereafter

 

[JOGAMIGMOG]

I think Palmer might start.

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

Long time since a Viking hat trick. Think we might just see one.

 

[Withnail]

Seems like it has been a long week and Saturday can't come quick enough for me. Brighton are a decent side, albeit they sometimes lack a cutting edge.
