Fit

Seems that way

Doubt he’d be training if he wasn’t

How are you going to

Or, How are you go to make Haaland as good as Nunez?

Bench him for 6 months?

What did he try and ask this time

How well has Alvarez settled in - but the way he asked it involved Akanji, Haaland as opposed to simply asking how has he settled.

Another asked Alvarez has only scored 1 so far in the league - answer bewildered look and ‘yes’ not played many minutes.

I can't see Leicester causing us many problems although I would like to see a side go for our throats a bit and try to get out more.

4-1 to City.

Keep Brendan guessing

Yes, he will need to prepare 2 lists of excuses

What did he try and ask this time

I think it was “Pep can you tell me why I am such a whiney gravel voiced meany mouthed rag prick”?

Cannot see Leicester trying to shut up shop at home , but they are capable of scoring , think there will be plenty of goals , a nice 3-2 or 4-2 win would do , although we havent been as free flowing in the last few games , if we have KDB,Bernardo,Foden,Gundo starting we will create plenty for Haaland if he is fit.
We need maximum points from the league games before the world cup and this will be a good start.

Four league titles out of the last five says we will be.

last few games we've been a little meh

We always seem to go through these phases, Years gone passed when we are ahead in games we tend to take our foot off the gas on occasions and conserve energy obviously looking further down the line. This season the Villa game in particular is one which we have done that and it came back to bite us on the ass. It being unusual World Cup mid season without doubt players will have it in mind and won't want to miss it.

Being honest we've a nice fixture list coming just before it with games we really should be winning and a chance for players to be rotated/rested/substituted. Anyway, We should do what's best for Manchester City regarding the players.
