The tactical reason was that Kev was dead on his feet!

Walker & Stones are going to be more like a new detective series than City players for the run in, if their injuries are anything close to feared.

It’s never good when you get the setback if trying, but failing to come back from an injury. Often, it makes the next time longer than it would otherwise have been.

Dead on his feet….he was rested for the Leeds game

Dead on his feet….he was rested for the Leeds game

If you can’t trust your own eyes, what can I say?

He’s clearly been carrying an injury and it may have been acting up and the club keeping it quiet (Shock, horror, whodathunkit?!).

But, yeah, let’s go with taking off the best midfielder in Europe for “tactical” reasons in the biggest game of the season so far.

Bernardo and Foden both played 120 mins at Madrid. Can’t see both of them starting, especially with another game on Wednesday

Pep is really going to have to use his subs well. Bernardo, KDB and Rodri especially have to be well managed

Massive game need to bounce back well think if we recover from Wednesday and win we win the league.

 

[Greenjob]

Dippers get 5 mins added time? For what exactly??

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Come on City.

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Come on City we can bring this home tomorrow!

 

[el wey]

What a boost for tomorrow. Come on City!

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

Dean give them 5 mins added on and OliVAR adds more!

 

[Blu3m00n91]
