Cardiff (A) Pre Match Thread

[SWP's back]

Huddersfield?!

Arsenal also. And we won 3-0 last week.

Short memories as to what “shit” or “stale” looks like.

 

[welsh_andy]

just got to game lots of blues about absolutely chucking it down.

Surprised Silva doesn’t start, but a strong bench to call on if needed.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Nice to see gundogan starting.

 

[MCFC1993]

No David Silva but the team shape is right.

We're much better when Sterling and Sane are giving us width.

 

[axlgod]

Gundogan starts!!!

Time for a big performance.
Come on City!!!!!

[balotelli's back pocket]

Haha Gundogan plays. Cue crying on here.

Good line up IMO, David needs a rest. Dinho to sit out midweek.

 

[Silva2021]

Nice to see gundogan starting.

Your brave!!

 

[Ric]

That snide bastard Bennett on the bench for them.

 

[kaz7]

Gundy and dinho together doesn't work but he does it again? at least we have sane and raz back

Protecting him. These are thugs.

 

[city951]

my concern here is the lack of leadership on the pitch.

 

[pml79]

Don't like that midfield

 

[burnley blue mcfc]

Don't like that midfield

Me neither :-/

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Same midfield that played vs Arsenal? Did okay in that game

 

[Phil1]

Pretty sure that all blues would be made up with a great performance from him and he be instrumental in us getting 3 points.
With Cardiff likely be getting in our faces and the game being rough and tumble I don’t see that scenario playing out sadly.
Disagree with Silva needing a rest today, midweek is the time for that.
Still, more than a good enough starting 11 to win the game.

 

[Homar]

This isn’t the right game for Gundogan, regardless of his poor performance on Wednesday. He’s going to be tiptoeing about just trying not to get injured.

Silva is being protected as well as rested, we can't afford him getting injured by these ****s. Dinho a little more physical so he has to play.
