City v Sunderland pre-match thread (13/8/2016)

[Pam]

luckily it's only Sunderland as that team would get mauled by a half decent side.

Horses for courses, dubblue.

 

[MarsLlama]

Silva at CM is weird, doubt that formation is the one we'll use. No Yaya, which is a shame. I predict Otamendi will come on at some point for match fitness reasons.

 

[chestervegasblue]

I'm calling a Caballero injury.

 

[Dax777]

Will be:

Aguero
Nolito Silva De Bruyne Sterling
Fernandinho
Clichy Kolarov Stones Sagna
Caballero​

Yup

 

[Kompany is King]

Who are the subs

 

[bert38]

He was,had a late test

Pep did say he had one eye on tuesday

 

[Chi-town blues]

Fasten your seat belt ...yes indeed!

 

[Bewar3them00n]

Loving the pre match madness on here!
I suppose with one eye on midweek, Sunderland should ( SHOULD) be put to the sword, and Pep has just said he will change things midweek

 

[Josep]

Yaya probably has the legs for only one game a week and that too, maybe 30min at the intensity Pep demands. So he is likely to feature in the CL game maybe.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Pep has just said Yaya had a slight problem with a tendon and he is also looking forward to midweek (and will be changing the team for that match).

Set pieces are going to be interesting. Very small team.
