Newcastle (H) | Pre-Match Thread

Rodri playing in games where he offers nothing has become an inevitability now so can't say I'm surprised to see him play with gundog an. Only surprise for me is ake, expected the more attacking mendy to start against these where I expect scoring will be more of an issue than defending. There's enough on the pitch to win no excuses.

Me too cos that would mean we’re 5-0 up

With 3 mins to go

Not sure we really need Gundo and Rodri against Newcastle.

Do we really need Zinchenko and Mendy on the bench?

Incredible that people still react with shock when Rodri and Gundogan get selected together. You’d think they’d be used to it by now! It’s not going to change any time soon.

Harder game (on paper of course) in just 2 days - rotation vital

Good team,should be interesting.

Good line up but was hoping one of Rodri or gundogan was left out for foden but there you go has the feel of a hammering for Newcastle but end up like the West Brom game ..

 

[mosssideblue]

Not sure there can be many complaints about that team

There will be

Bored are we?

He’s right, “few goals” means not many goals

Decent team

Really. Why isn’t Foden starting. What Pep said about him not being calm and rushing didn’t make any sense. If any player isnt calm in front of net it is Raheem Sterling. Mind you he would have to shoot Pep to get dropped. Same goes for Rodri. Even then I think he would pick them both. Fuck this double pivot off.
