Cardiff (h) pre-match thread

[Deepest Blue]

Team selected has put a spring in my step as I make my way to the game.

Decent side, made up for Phil he won’t let us down

No Bernardo, no Sterling. Too many changes for my liking

Not to many changes,and I’m not on to bash players but would rather see either sterling or Bernardo instead of Mahrez,but there you go maybe he’ll prove me wrong and bag a couple of goals..

 

[ninjamonkey]

A lot of changes there, hopefully it won't impact the fluidity of our game too much, other than that slight concern it's a good team with good rotation. Big chance for players on the periphery to make a telling contribution and probably the last chance this season for a few too. If mahrez doesn't show up tonight I can't see him getting another chance. To a much lesser extent, Jesus needs a good game too after looking lively at Fulham. Only disappointment is not seeing Mendy in the squad, tonight is probably the last game we can risk giving him minutes and allowing rustiness, after today he will have to be 100% on it to make the team for the remainder of the season.

I'm with you, although we do have a strong bench to bail us out if things don't go well.

 

[whos_kompany85]

Still a good team but a bit concerned about the number of changes, hope its smooth and cohesive from the start. Come on city

 

[vmsuhail]

We have a quality squad,we have to use it this month

Yes, can’t complain with the amount of fixtures

 

[paulchapo]

Mendy not even on the bench? Given his indiscipline and almost two years out injured I wonder if that's him done here now.

Er; you have seen how many games we're facing this month, yeah?

 

[Mancityus]

Looks like Pep was surprised by the question in the presser and has laid down the law for Mendy though he laughed it off during the press conf.
