savinho or doku should be in there instead of gundo or Bernardo

gundo, kova & Bernardo can't all play together way too slow still gonna have the same issues.

 

[pudge]

Getting pumped again

 

[urban genie]

that midfiled

 

[NptonBlue89!]

No way stones can play today and Tuesday. Probbaly saving him for Brugges as khusanov cant play.

Did he start Tuesday then? I thought he came on sub I’d rather get top 4 we’re not winning the champions league!

 

[dhruvblue]

Gundo and Kovacic is criminal

And you add tired Bernardo in the mix and it’s Steiner Math

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Interesting, bernardo captain ahead of gundogan.

They had a race.

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Oi vey

 

[Dubciteh]

Hopefully omar through the middle bernardo right and phil left otherwise why sign him and play hik wide when we have a million options for thst position and huge gaping holes everywhere else

 

[Zenmanc]

I hope most here don't have young kids. The sheer amount of negativity about a subject that is so utterly meaningless in the grand scheme of life is soul destroying.

Guardiola did intimate that we needed to keep the ball more and the middle three and Marmoush should give us greater control, so the balance of the attack should tip toward retention. The moment the balance tips in favour of risk (de Bruyne/Haaland/Foden/Savinho/Doku) we retain it less and end up playing the length of the park. The question is whether today’s selection can create enough chances to win.

Oh well let’s get behind the lads but I feel sorry for the defence and the new lads playing today with that slow midfield..

Doku is injured

 

[super_city_si]

Khusanov 60/1 red card. After watching his highlights might be worth a quid ;)

 

[urban genie]

That holding midfield and defence bar Khusanov

 

[come-on-barney]

It’s a cold one for sure, interesting to see the two new boys.

 

[malg]

Sorry Starmer I'll think more carefully what I post.

Or both!

All came last ?

Mean next Tuesday. Is that when we play brugges?

 

[Joekmcfc]

Doku is injured
