You are spot on. Zinchenko is not a top class defender particularly against top quality forwards. The LB position is a big problem for us particularly if Mendy remains injured.

Lee Dixon and Arlo aren’t averse to sticking the boot into City a bit too though aren’t they?!
Lee Dixon is a grade A prick yes. Also crap "pundit" but thinks he is some sort of God
So did Guardiola. He thinks they are stronger for signing Maguire and Wan-Bissaka. Seems like a shrewd assessment from the best football brain in Europe.He’s just said United will be “there or thereabouts” at the end of the season, which is an even worse take.

Firstly, you have to have your brain removed...Dublin just said klopp will be the happier of the two managers. How's that work the?

He didn't define where "there" was though.
I'm going to assume he meant "there"= 6th

Any news on when Mendy is back? I agree it’s risky if we go into the season with zinchenko and Angelino

He's trained with the first team for 3 days this week. If all goes well, he'll be back for the Spurs game, before ending his season against Norwich in mid September.
Don't worry about Zinchenko. He won every premier league game he's played in. He was rusty today against the hardest opponent he will come up against this season. He'll come good.

Ive seen the video. Unfortunately i think it may have been blues. Not good to see either way
The rivalry has ramped up after the coach attack , total disrespect they showed for our football club , the Dippers have never really interested me , they were never contenders until last year , but the violence will escalate we arent a fan base that takes shit from any club , they started this with the attack and it only takes a few idiots and it will kick off. Its the same when the Rags go to Klanfield , Dippers really are the low lifes of the football supporting fraternity.
Lee Dixon and Arlo are usually very praiseworthy towards us. NBC coverage in the states is great. They actually enjoy what we have done over the last 2 years
Lee Dixon no way. Robbie Mustoe yes. Robbie Earle to a degree.

I do like Zinchenko , but someone needs to teach him to put the ball out of play , safety first , three occasions today he should have headed the ball for a corner or a throw in and instead he tried to keep the ball alive. Apart from this he is a very good full back , but still has to learn some defensive basics.
His English isn't as good as his understanding of football but you know the rags won't be as bad last season, sadly.Guardiola used the phrase “there or thereabouts”? Surely not!
In Canada it was on sportsnet worldhd, and it was with tyler and stewart robson, they do a lot of non UK international feeds. and he said all that crap, including that if you scored it like boxing you would have had to give it to liverpool.What channel were u watching it on to have Tyler commentating? He works for sky
Possibly. Not convinced they’ll be any better either though.His English isn't as good as his understanding of football but you know the rags won't be as bad last season, sadly.
Why did they boo the National Anthem?
cos they're scousers, not english

By ‘there’ I think he means 9th.

Don't know if its been covered yet but the mickeys had played 7 friendlies to our 4, they are ahead of us in fitness so our showing today was impressive, yes we tired but it was expected and we dug in.
Great result and performance.
