City's pre-season tour in the US

[Silva_Spell]

Foden at u19 euros, so check-mate :-)

ffs

 

[ChicagoBlue]

why they just don't start the season 2 weeks later in world cup years is beyond me

Bingo!

 

[MillionDollarDream]

Douglas Luiz back in Manchester now

 

[blue b4 the moon]

With Foden away won't we have a couple of others in that squad?

Also the foreign lads could be in thier squads too?

Could have been a chance for Tommy Doyle again if not with an England squad but I believe he's recovering from a broken leg.

The season really should start later after a WC it's potentially the proper fans who end up cheated of star players to line FIFA's pockets & keep the world's plastics happy.

Sane didn't cover himself in glory as a left wing back but maybe just as a left back in a traditional back 4 it could be different. It's a less complicated role.

Imagine Sane at left back with Mahrez in front of him. I reckon together they would cause far more trouble than any opposition, including Arsenal, could do to us.

See this as an opportunity not a threat.

Hahaha!

Any of the pre-season games in America on tv?

Any of the pre-season games in America on tv?

Matches against Dortmund and German Rags are both on Premier Sports. One against Dippers is on Liverpool FC TV. Or alternatively just consult your favorite IPTV or stream provider.

Could be this:

FW: Mahrez / Sane / Nmecha / Roberts / Bolton / Garre / Matonda / Touaizi

MF: Gundogan* / Brahim / Bashiru / Celina / Luiz / Gomes / Pozo / Poveda

DF: Laporte / Zinchenko / Adarabioyo / Denayer / Humphreys / Wilson / Garcia / Ogbeta

GK: Bravo / Hart / Grimshaw

Players who have played senior football in bold
Players who have played for Pep's City in blue

*maybe for 1st game

Aguero, Otamendi, Silva should join up part way through

No Latibeaudiere, even tho he's older than Ogbeta and has played RB, suggests there's still an issue there, sadly.

27 players there so perhaps a couple who we know will be leaving won't travel

Assume Mangala is still injured.

eg.
Sane Brahim Mahrez
Gundogan Bashiru
Zinchenko Luiz Humphreys
Laporte Adarabioyo
Bravo​

Great post. Would prefer Eric Garcia over Humphreys though. Do we know for certain if Douglas Luiz is going?
