Kev could start with Gundo sitting (for those not keen on Phillips starting).

I'd lean towards giving Phillips some game time.

He won’t start imo but he will come on at some stage just to shake off any rust
His magic overcoat must have done the trick

Was confident of a win, then they brought in BFS and now even more confident after he compared himself with Pep. Hope we smash the Lids comfortably and Sam can whine about it afterwards. Am more worried about injuries to our players though thanks to Sam being in the chair.

His mate slur Alex will have been on the blower already telling him to kick the fuck out of our lads

I think Pep will want this game done by half time and will go strong and then take key players off when the game is won.

Can see Akanji coming back in, Foden starting and De Bruyne/Gundogan to start.

Madley reffing. Oh dear. :(

According to the BBC Big Sam is the second coming of Christ and will teach the upstart Pep a lesson. 4:0 to Manchester’s finest.

Never mind about the ball, just keep kicking!

I think that will be the instruction.

How come this is on sky with it being 3pm sat

They must know summat we don't!! Who's the whistling wanker this time?

 

[Chippy_boy]

Phillips should start on the bench and remain there. I'd rather put Ederson or Ortega on in midfield than play Phillips.

Many players don't have a great first season when joining us and having to adapt to new ways. And when you add in his injury and then almost zero playing time or chance to have a run of games and build his confidence, is it any wonder he's been flaky when he has played?

Phillips is a decent player and will be an excellent one next season.

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Hopefully, as the fourth City goal goes in after 38 minutes, the crowd bursts into song.

He’s better than Pep! He’s better than Pep!
He’s Fat Sam Allardyce! He’s better than Pep!

I’ll get my coat.

Can see Leeds fans getting lairy if they lose.

Hey, don’t be making fun of Big Sam, he is well “big” in the football world.
