Given that we are far from our best against a team who have only lost once in the league this season, some of the Betfair odds seem very attractive. City1-3 Fey at 100/1 for example. For the optimists, City 3-3 Fey at 66/1 also good odds. At least I will be rich if we don't win.

Can’t take anything for granted as it is now. I will just be happy with a win no matter how or who the opponent is. And than move on to the next.

I’m sure Pep, his staff and the players available know the importance to gain self confidence by winning games. It would give me some confidence for sure …

Nothing else to say really.

We'll smash these ones tonight i think

4-1 or 5-1

Mcatee should be getting a run out in this one, same with Oriely

Pep quoted that he only had one fit winger yesterday(or at least that was how it came across) And here's me thinking Mcatee was a winger. It's puzzling why he's not getting any minutes.

I just want to see a different central midfield tonight. Nunes in the holding role or something, partnered by Gvardiol or even Grealish. It can't be any worse than playing Gundogan at the moment, who is getting bypassed far too easily when the opposition has the ball. Bernardo and Lewis both badly need a rest as well - they've been run into the ground over the last few weeks.

Ortega
Walker, Akanji, Ake
Nunes, Gvardiol
Savinho, De Bruyne, Foden, Grealish
Haaland

Tell Gvardiol to stay behind the halfway line for the entire game and see how we go. Surely at the Etihad that kind of line-up is enough to get past Feyenoord? Because while we're incredibly leaky at the back, we are still creating chances and looking dangerous going forward. That was part of what was so perplexing about the Spurs game - we could have easily scored a couple and made it a different game.

Hopefully more game time for some of the rustler players, no further injuries, 3 points, and some much needed restoration of confidence before Anfield.
I'm not asking for too much !

Some of these then ?

 

[chickaroon]

That's one word to use for Nunes as the DM.

I wasn't talking about Nunes.

 

[wolviedinho]

If stones is out maybe tonight would be a good time to try gvardiol in the dm role? Ake can go into lb with Dias as CB Depending on fitness.

Kev and Jack need to be starting games to get fitness.

Time we go back to being hard to beat and utilise the out and out wingers when needed.
