Lots of energy and quality in our midfield, could be the key to the game.

So many players in our team who are simply nowhere near their best form , KDB,Sterling,Bernardo ,Jesus even Foden isnt quite there , no problems with their effort but to have so many creative players off their game i think we have an explanation for our lack of goals. Aguero has been a massive miss as well , hopefully at least a couple of them start hitting some decent form soon , Pep is certainly giving them plenty of chances to play through their issues.
Imagine if those five players mentioned were on fire , we would be a dozen points clear now , plenty to come from this team yet and its down to Pep (and his comatose assistant) to get the best out of them.

Some big performers still playing for us today-Stones, Dias, Gundogan, even Cancelo, all in fine form, along with KDB, Bernie, Foden and Raz. Should be a good press and plenty of pace. Bookies make us 6/5 favs. We can win this!

Well if sam says so..

We will see. Haha. Sam said Cancelo is fine didn't he

Let's cut out the stupid bickering, please.

Mendy in net for them, serves him right.

Sad to not have sergio start , i know pep says it has to be gradual this time , i want to see him in case he doesnt extend

 

[hilts]

Impossible to predict this game, just go with the flow folks.

Thought it was only meant to be 5?

Garcia tested positive as well.

There is no alternative to zinchenko today and for the rest of the season in reality. Anyone who doesn’t think that we should upgrade on that position by the summer given that position has been weak for the whole of peps time needs their head testing
