Burnley are 17/2 if anyone wants a bit of value.

Before of you any fannies start saying "You should never back against City, Why would you want them to lose" bullshit.

It's just a bet so fucking relax.

Too short for me, I’m into 20/1 shots, what are Burnley HT - FT ?
 
I think Gvardiol will be on the bench. Can understand not throwing him straight in to an away game after only a few days of training, settling into a new country etc. Guessing this’ll be the team from the early leaks, which should have more than enough to beat Burnley:

Ederson
Walker
Akanji
Ake
Lewis
Rodri
Kovacic
De Bruyne
Bernardo
Foden
Haaland

Your post was very misleading, don't say they are unavailable unless you know this for certain. Thanks

Bunch of mercenaries.
 
OK given all the reported ins and outs, It can only be:

Ortega
Walker Lewis Haaland Ake
Kovacic Rodri De Bruyne
Alvarez Ederson Foden

What can possibly go wrong

edit - oops forgot Woddewi

Who do you think you are?

You said all 3 of dias, josko and stones are unavailable, you don't know that, if you believe reports that's your opinion but I'll wait for confirmed team news, do I make myself clear big man?

Haha, it takes some bollocks to have joined a year ago (with 211 posts), come in to a match thread, and act a **** to a mod that has been on here since before the takeover, with nearly as many posts as you likely have hours on this earth.
 
Doubt Pep's resting anyone, I reckon he sees this as the more important of the two games. If anyone is missing they're either not fit or he's got a tactical reason. Maybe he sees pace as the way to beat their right-back so has left Jack out? We'll find out in a bit anyway.

I love Rico in midfield, and good at right back, but never convinced at left-back. Let's hope we smooth sail...

No way. You rarely get a chance to win the Super Cup. We need to win on Wednesday.
 
Maybe Laporte starts? As he’s better than Ake at playing out from the back especially with Burnley’s press.
