Feel sorry for Zin. He’s a decent footballer but not a left back. He decided to stay and fight for a place last summer when he could have moved to Wolves and played in midfield.

That’s been the only position he’s ever played for us!!!!

Who would you have played there?

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

All those criticising Zinny he has rarely let us down. I would concentrate your thoughts on Mahrez not seeing the summer out, Foden nowhere to be seen, and Leroy always the fall guy!

I think all the other choices are 50/50 and won’t make a significant change to the strength of the team.

With Zinny he has in the main done a decent job filling in but I’d be surprised if 5% of our fans would have him in the starting line up in this game. He has been caught out a few times due to not being a natural defender. If he has a good day defensively he will be an asset as he’s a natural attacking player.

The formation/lineup in the past two matches have been good so not sure why there is such a significant change today, when was Zinny’s last game?

Fingers crossed the result does not hinge on this decision.

The last time I can recall Mahrez playing, he had a chance to square the ball for a goal but instead tried to score from the most impossible angle. I remember thinking, and posting, that even if he had scored it he would not be playing himself any closer to a start. He is selfish, he plays for Mahrez and for nobody else. That’s not what Pep wants. When he starts to play for the team, he’ll come into consideration again.

Zinchenko is at LB or its a 3-4-3 diamond with the back 3, Dinho central defensive to drop to make a back 4, Zinchenko and Gundogan together, with KDB in front, and front 3 of Sterling, Aguero, Bernardo
