Used to feel sick on derby day and, although I still hate it, the fixture today makes me feel even worse.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Well you have 18000 odd ;-)

Have I done that many? Some of em may even have been good?

Mahrez starting is a puzzler

 

[kippaxwarrior]

Fucking knew Allison, Fabinho, and Mane would all make miraculous recoveries.

And? As a team there in dreadful form. Have some fucking faith we'll do the business

Mans got an opinion. Still wants city to win. Lets remember who the real enemy is.

You mean like this one?

You have a guy like Zinchenko who can’t defend for his fucking life. You have a Sterling who’s had an awful form for the past 4-5 month, unable to finish pretty much everything coming his way. And then he puts Mahrez in there who is as predictable as a sunrise and pretty much never fights for the ball and run.

This line-up will probably cost us. Unbelievable. Pep never learns.

If sterling can't do it today with no crowd then you'd have to wonder will he ever perform against these cunts.
Zinch and Mahrez would worry me other than that the line up is fine.

He was man of the match (as voted for on here) against these cunts last time we played at Anfield.

It’s the exact same 11 as West Brom (5-0). Mahrez played false 9 that day.

This.. people keep thinking Mahrez and Sterling will be on opposite flanks.. they won’t. Would have if Gabby started but he’s not.

I like our line up for this against them.. they have two midfielders playing as centre backs... playing in front of them should coax them out a few feet and create space between the lines.

Gundog is on fire, foden to pin back trent derby

See how it pans for the first 30 mins, get control of the game and if we are keeping the front 3 quiet then cancelo can adopt his forward midfield position which he has done well this season. It just has to be timed right.

Exploit fabinho and the donkey at CB cos they are not what they want you to believe - they are the weak link

Foden to go direct as much as possible causing rash decision making in the back line

Thiago slows there game down a lot so that could go on our favour.

Dias to put an oldskool challenge on that snide twat mane would be nice as well

 

[PaleBlue]

Mane back, he'll be looking for a penalty from minute 1. Like Bambi on ice he is, and Fabinho back too, who'd a thunk it eh? Glad KDB is out for this one as Fabinho is likely to put a reducer on someone early on, a blatant foul that Danny Murphy would describe as "excellent, rugged defending".....

 

[Tricky_Trev]

West Brom are comfortably the worst team in this league. I think sunday league team can beat them

So? I’m not sure what your point is. We should have won 10-0 to be able to play the same way against harder opponents?
