Not looking forward to tonight, I've a feeling we could get pasted again!

I've a feeling it's going to get worse before it gets better.

It does not make a jot of difference win lose or draw, Juve 1st and us 2nd - roll on Barca

I think it's bayerns turn.

With the injuries, we'll have at least three EDS players on the bench (Maffeo, Adarabioyo and Celina). Would be nice to see at least one of them to get some game time tonight. Fairly sure Pellegrini will use his three senior subs though, regardless of the circumstances.

Reckon we'll line up like this:

Hart
Sagna
Otamendi
Mangala
Clichy
Fernandinho
Delph
Toure
Silva
De Bruyne
Bony

 

[Kladze]

I really don't want to see Bony's name in the starting line-up. Sterling or Silva "up top" for me.

We all know that won't happen, though..

same here
won't get better with pellers still managing

 

[Marvin]

It's going to be like the last day of the season with half an eye glued on the scoreboard following the Sevilla v Juve score. What goes on there will impact the atmosphere here.

Perhaps if we can get an early goal, it can feedback to Seville and Juventus might get nervous.

So much depends on the injuries. I think playing Yaya is a no go. I would have Silva in behind Bony with Sterling and KDB on the wings. Get Yaya on the bench and ease him back in. I would give Silva a hour to 70 minutes with Yaya on for the last 20 - 30 minutes. I think this is a tricky game I know at home we are able to beat any team just think without Kun scoring goals might be hard. Bony is in his last chance saloon with us. He needs to score a few goals tonight get his confidence up sky high. Think he has it in him just needs a run of games with a few goals to get him right. He is playing for his role in the squad next season is the way i see it with Bony.

Hart
Sagna
Otamendi
Mangala
Kolarov
Fernandinho
Delph
Silva
Sterling
KDB
Bony

City win 2-1

 

[Aguerovic]

Come on god, make Zenit City happen in the Round of 16. Everyone needs to see the trio of Hulk Dzyuba Shatov.

I'm a but suspicious as to whether Toure was ever injured. Perhaps the plan was to get some exercise into him to get him fitter with this game in mind. He was well below the standards required.
