You tell him mate.

Sorry, I thought you were talking to yourself. Just realised there's two of you. : )

Really looking forward to this. Just play our strongest 11, in the formations that have worked consistently all season. I’m just hoping that Pep doesn’t do a “pep” and overthink things like the game V Lyon last year

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Laporte
Cancelo
Rodri
De Bruyne
Gundogan
Bernardo Silva
Foden
Mahrez

Is John injured?

 

[Blue Smarties]

Haaland is a worry , but he hasnt come up against a defender like Dias , as long as we are still in the tie in the 2nd leg and with home form meaning nothing at the moment we will have enough over the two legs.

Played against VVD in the CL?

I think well go false 9.

1st comment in the thread and nailed it for me.

Although have a feeling he could play Mahrez over Foden :(

 

[Horlocksleftpeg]

After Torres's showing for Spain, I think he may start as well.

I think Torres is nailed on for the Leeds game

He seems to be getting managed in a similar way to Sane first season. Hoping he’ll show the same blistering form is Sane did in his 2nd season

It's more important that they don't score than it is we score a load. 1-0 will do and even 0-0 would be acceptable although I'd prefer the former or better. If they score we really need a minimum 3-1 or better. A score draw or 2-1 win would not be good and a loss would be a disaster.

This is going to be a fantastic spectacle. So much going on in this fixture. Magic

Score early and they may break. They are mentally weak.
