If the ball is squared when we’re through, we’ll win.

Even better if it's round, it'll move a lot quicker:)

Can we add a "not arsed" to the poll list for the friendly?

Let’s see if Pep has learned anything from last season against Crystal Palace..
30/10/21 H Manchester City 0 Crystal Palace 2
12/03/22 A Crystal Palace 0 Manchester City 0
Let’s hope that he has.
No inverted fullbacks or false nines……..just fucking beat them please.

I haven’t voted because this is the fixture we normally lose.

I hope it was just a stinker for Walker but as I said earlier all season he's just looked off to me. A bit mentally and physically? I do fear time and minutes on his legs are finally catching up to him tbh. Palace looked great vs Villa which makes this midweek friendly in another country even more silly(Yes, I know it's for a good cause). Not even going to try and guess the lineup.

Never got this love in for Walker, he'd have made a decent athlete but footballer, no.

Kyle needs to play RB Sat with Zaha, lets hope Pep learns from Barcode, good LW needs a RB not DM/midfield being pulled out of position

Maybe it`s for a good cause but the timing of it is insane.

Let’s hope we deal with Zaha better than we did ASM
