City v Southampton pre match thread.

Bit worried about that back line to be honest. Have they in fact played even one match together this season, those four?

Think they played together away at Chelsea and kept a clean sheet. The same result would do nicely!

Chill guys. Today's game less vital now. We can even loose today and still finish 3rd by winning the last two. A win from this would be a bonus now. Think that donkey bony might even be half useful playing with nacho

Don't want to lose though . Have to want to win

Not a bad line up apart from one player. Would have thought it was a good game to try one of the kids in midfield as well

Nice to see not too many disappointed with the team selection, and hopefully the lads will do the business. Just curious, if the rags had won, would everyone still be as happy with the team

Yeah it's the right team. The likes of De Bruyne and Aguero were barely moving against Madrid. They're knackered. I think Aguero had started our last 15 matches consecutively? We desperately needed to rest players today.

Glad that Bony & Delph are getting some game time. We need a fully fit squad for the champions league in case of injuries.

Just for once leave the party line and admit Bony might not fill everyone with confidence in what is an important match.





Expect Bony hattrick ;-)

Manager chose a good team. But only fear is that this means Yaya starts at Madrid. I think this Selection pretty much tells us the team for Wednesday.

Don't agree. I think Sterling needs minutes and if he plays well today, he'll come off at 70 and get picked on Wednesday.

They were the back 4 in our last league match for a start!

And away at Chelsea, so 2 clean sheets and 2 comfortable wins.

one thing for sure I wont be on the matchday thread on here I think it will be over to Ragcafe to enjoy their bitterness and watch them suffer when we come from a goal down to win

No build up for City on Sly then?

Need at least a draw.

To be in a position where we need to beat Arsenal - given our record vs the top teams - is not where we want to be.
