Champions League Final | Pre-Match Thread

[PragueBlue]

We could end up with Aguero, Torres, Jesus and Sterling on the bench, all of whom are more than capable of scoring for us. If with 10/20 mins left, we need a goal from somewhere, who do you bring on?

Normally I would have said Aguero but I'm not sure if he's fit enough, should the game go into extra time.

I'd be tempted to go with Torres. He seems the more natural finisher to me outside of Aguero.

 

[Tevez City]

I am more afraid of Pep than Chelsea.

Hopefully he will not try the 3 at the back again or play Sterling.

I think Pep will only switch KDB with Gundogan

Or put Gundogan as our striker/false 9 as you have just done in your post above ;-)

Surely picks itself with the form Ferny's in?

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Stones
Zinch
Fernandinho
Gundo
KDB
Bernardo
Mahrez
Foden

Aguero to come on if we need a goal in the last 20 minutes.
Rodri on if we're protecting lead with 25 minutes to go.
Carson on if we're 5-0 up with 10 minutes to go... Too far?

Oh no, I didn't realise there was a better Manager than Pep out there, petition to get "Tevez City" as boss for this game, he's never lost a cup final whilst Pep had failed miserably with just 14 wins from 15 finals, no brainier.

I think that's exactly the team, 4-0, that's all.

I think it would have been better if Chelsea hadn't qualified for Europe already as there would have been more pressure on them to beat us. Having said that, we are full of confidence, and as long as we play our natural game, Chelsea have got no chance.

Chelsea have lost 3 of their last 4 games. They were under pressure to win all of them.

 

[Saddleworth2]

I believe we will win and more comfortably than some think.
I would like a cup final like that against Watford where we can just sit back, relax and enjoy. Much nicer than a narrow win. Play cagy for first 15 minutes then once we have their measure, rip them a new one.

This week is going to be hell. Saturday from the minute I wake up, every minute after will feel like hours.

I think we will win it and comfortably so.
3-0. Foden brace. Agüero off the bench to sign off in style. Come on City!!!!!
