horrible midfield duo plus mendy

lots of sideways passing till we lose possession and their midfield and forwards leave Gundogan and Rodri in their wake breaking at will onto our back 4 (3 probably cause Mendy will be playing catch up somewhere around the halfway line!)

Mandy will pressed into many mistakes

Pep has sent one of the coaches in to the dressing room to replace Eddie’s keeper gloves with extra-padded boxing gloves.

are you surprised -they smell blood and want to make a statement - and they probably will

Oh shut the fucking fuck up Simon, you miserable fucker

To be fair, he needs to start playing like he deserves a starting spot.

Exactly, at this moment in time he's not the player we are used to seeing

It’s good to see Foden and Garcia but I have real concerns that Gundogan and Rodri are playing together. When they play together we’re slower in the build up and lack goal threat. I’m sure Pep knows best but they don’t fill me with confidence.

 

[The Future is Blue]

Sly just shown the players arriving at the ground. It's good to see the opposition players strolling along in the early evening Manchester sunshine with not a care in the world rather than having to avoid a hail of bottles and red flares which is the normal welcome at these events!

Hahaha - you have no idea

Gundo and Rodri together is a bit of a worry. I'd have Gundo holding with Bernardo with Kev in middle.

I guess the thinking is Rodri has the height, physical presence and not afraid to stick a foot in against that big lump in their midfield and Gundo always seems to play well against a Klopp team - perhaps from his Dortmund days. One of these will be MOM tonight just to prove a few fans wrong Ha! Miss prime Bernardo though but he will be on in the second half.

 

[Jesus H Gabz]

Anyone else think there’s a funky formation coming? Maybe Jesus on the left as a wide striker & do a number on Robertson ,Raz on the right occupying Trent and Phil providing a bit of penetration through the middle & putting the squeeze on Van Dijk

All the moaning about the team - our two best prospects in years are starting against the champions - a lesson for them in having to clap them lot onto the pitch too. The season is gone, build for the future
