City v Liverpool - Community Shield pre-match thread

[Deleted member 81382]

So based on friendlies, i assume sterling will be playing as striker of false 9? He's is due a good game vs Liverpool.

Was just thinking that. Playing as the central striker against a weakened Liverpool side in a less pressurised game could be the perfect opportunity to get his first goal against them.

Media keep on and on and on about how weak Liverpool's team will be on Sun, i call bs, i think they will have most back by the time Sun comes along.

Virgil 'I've never been dribbled past' Van Dijk is about to get a stern test of his mantra

Football is back! Thank fuck for that.

Bravo, Walker, Stones, Laporte, Zinchenko, Rodri, De Bruyne, Silva, Bernardo, Sane, Sterling
Bring on Angelino, Otamendi, Gundogan, Foden, and Aguero for some minutes. Dinho if he's ready, if not then Danilo.

The AFCON final was on the 19th so even if he returned the Monday after West Ham that would only be 24 days after the final.

Does anyone know if Salah, Mane and Firmino are supposed to play ?

Who Fcuking cares! THEY have to try and beat us with their dirty cheating tactics.
We are the ones to beat. It will only be recognised as a trophy by the dipper vermin if THEY win it.

Nico is back

We should be able to stop these guys in this match. I think LFC will play a weakened team though so not to upset their pre season, they must get off to a good start... But I think that's the difference between us, LFC need to win and get the ball rolling and hope they can sustain it, City are confident even if we lose we will come back

Will be interesting tobsee how they cope without at least 2 of their biggest threats.
