Where did you get the idea thiago is a defensive midfielder lol

people here are ridiculous

Deep midfielder doesn’t have to be a bruiser.

It's not crying when you point out we're already making the same errors that lost us 9 games last season.

It's not missing players, its the fact that with one decent pass the opposition end up one-on-one with Ederson.

And you would do what? We are playing attacking football. Leicester are falling very deep. Would you rather we held players back in our half in case they lump the ball up field? What would you do?

The way to play them is to stop the ball from going over the top in the first place and that is what we do by closing down the guy with the ball. What ‘errors’ are we making?.

come on city

Can’t see looking at the subs how it can be changed. Delay can come on later. Don’t think Torres would change much at the moment. Maybe shuffle what is out there and get them running at players

many other ideas

 

[I'm Blue]

COME ON CITY!!!

 

[FCBarca]

Yep, Bernardo is out injured for a bit. Along with Jesus, and Aguero obviously.

Unlucky

Well, then for sure Delap, Zinchenko & Torres for Mendy, Foden & Mahrez although Riyad will probably be counted on to apply pressure/width against his former team

 

[Josh_D]

Delap warming up. Wonder who will get pulled off

 

[Brewster's millions]

Can't argue that the defence is poor but the system doesn't does us any favours, pushing the full backs up every time and leaving space at the back.

Wouldn't mind if the full backs could cross but they can't, and yet we ping 70 yard balls to Mendy all game.
