Straight in there with Dias, no fannying about. Love it.

Didnt we do that with LaPorte and he had a decent game?

Switched on, 2 mins in and Sky already shit stirring.

 

[oasisband909]

Foden in midfield! Has he actually started there before

Will be switching on 17.31

I think it will De Bruyne a bit deeper than usual and Foden roaming around the box. In theory, this looks really promising as there will be spaces available.
Fancying a Foden goal today.

I assume Carragher or Neville with be co-commentators...

Hopefully you will miss our first goal then.

So Kelly says NONE of Pep’s defensive signings have hit the heights you expect. There was me thinking Walker and Laporte are two of the best defensive signings we’ve ever made, playing the best football of their careers at City. I guess not.

Must win game no cock up lads

I'd say a must not lose game

Disgusted that Pep can pick Mendy, Rodri and Mahrez ahead of Ake, Fernandinho and Bernardo Silva after their performances last week; Delap should also be starting up front, playing with a false nine very rarely works in English football just like playing with Rodri rarely works in English football, nowhere near good enough or suitable for the pace of the game here but Pep is too embarrassed to admit he’s made a massive mistake and continues to pick him week in week out

My thoughts exactly. What does pep see in mahrez, one of the laziest players in the squad at the minute.

 

[PragueBlue]

Would prefer to see Bernardo over Mahrez and Ake tried at LB instead of Mendy but overall not too bad a side.

 

[Silva_Spell]

Apparently non of Pep's defensive signings have worked out, according to Dalglish's spawn

 

[mccity]

Nice and easy 7-0 win please

Seems fair

Dias to score for both sides.

Judging by Leeds formation shown on sky if true will be very congested in midfield, early ball over the top/into the channels could be a good tactic and therefore Torres and sterling coming from wide with mahrez dropping into more central positions to play said balls (and foden taking up more of an energetic pressing/chasing role) might be the shape

 

[malg]

Mahrez hat-trick incoming.
