Match Thread | Girona vs Manchester City (15/08/17 @ 1700hrs)

[Carver]

Jesus is on so that the fringe players can learn his runs, Sane is playing wingback so he can learn to play there when we're up against it and pep wants to change formation rather than having to take him off and use up a sub.

It's a friendly, you try new things.

A lot of frustrated players in blue out there. Things not going their way at all.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

It's clear the existing Girona squad hates us. They see their careers being threatened just because we want a B team, so are out to prove something.

What was that gabby lol

 

[SWP's back]

Maybe because we gave him no chances despite playing well every time he put on the shirt and have now condemned him to a season getting relegated from his home country's top league.

Have they shown to you that they look like being relegated?

He played four against United.

He's also not yet had his first choice left back play.

And why wouldn't he try and bed in a new system in friendlies when the team know how to play four at the back?

You're showing all the foresight and football knowledge of a hedgehog.

He didn't chop and change that often with Bayern or Barca... Just maybe he has found a system that he is happy with now he has his players. Time will tell of course. Not sure me simply predicting something different to you in our future equates to me having less football knowledge though.

feck me Jesus another great chance goes begging

Maffeo is still my favourite youth player at City, it's like we've cloned Zaba. Really should get a proper crack at the first team.

when did Zaba ever roll around like Ronaldo?

 

[cookster]

was it fook

Replay showed he got caught by Ota's knee.

Jesus needs to click into form quickly. He's looked well off it so far.
