Nottingham Forest (H) - Wed 4th Dec, 19:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

Why no Nunes, we need legs in that midfield. Kev and Gundo could get over run here.

Also needs a break tbh. Rotating has worked for us long term in the past - come end of the season we end up fully fit and everyone else (Arsenal) dropping like flies. Let’s just hope it still matters by then

I think Jack will be a welcome addition to that midfield today, Bernie and Doku out wide I wouldn't mind betting. Come on City

It did that last night on the app on my telly, I changed it to the prime app on virgin and the picture is flawless. Some of the best HD I’ve seen. The sound though. Just so quiet.

Just checked on mine, Picture and sound spot on.

I really think City will terrorise this forest team. 7 nil. Haaland 4, Kdb, Bernardo, Grealish.

This is the kind of post I can associate with. Bravo.

You know they are sixth right? We need to show respect to the opposition which we haven’t been doing defensively

Foden with bronchitis. Rumours he had a bad case of Covid early in the season and has had chest issues since.

I’ve got a good soundbar and it’s on 30/35. A film I have it on 21 and get moaned at by her.

 

[WorthlessPoster]

Almost time...again! 3 points will do. Come On City!

 

[Betterdeedthan red]

Can’t afford yet another slip-up.

I reckon today is the today we see proper personnel changes. Grealish/Akanji in midfield potentially.

The title is hanging by a thread not that we are focused on that just now. A win is a must today.

Need to be careful with transitions with Elanga/CHO/MGW.

Title hanging by a thread.

That's one way of putting it.
The way we're playing well be lucky to get top 10

 

[ufo]

ok that’ll do

 

[supercity88]

Expecting Bernardo wide and Grealish central. The energy in midfield/getting overrun is largely resolved by not giving the ball away. De Bruyne gives us that quality to maybe not need to commit too much in attack and be more patient. I would quite like to see Grealish as the deeper player and Gundo further forward but might be pushing it with that.

Buzzing either way, expecting a better performance and hopefully the 3pts as that's the main thing tonight.

Palace look shite, win tonight and at the weekend and things will feel so much more positive.

I hope come 9.30 you don't regret this post. I hope your right but a lot of us are sitting down to watch this in fear.

Again????

KDB and Bernardo interacting and swapping positions on the right, Grealish and Doku on the left, mobile as fuck and with the SOLE intention of feeding the Viking.

Tonight’s the fucking night











Pretty pretty please….

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Berbatov looks ill as fuck

 

[RayCTID]

I am liking that starting line up. Hopefully Kev can provided that missing spark.

I hope he likes fish

 

[The Future’s Blue!]

Come on City!

 

[Eccles Blue]

The Boys in Blue never give in, they fight to the end. Come on City, come on City. Show 'em lads, show 'em all.
Especially those Nottingham folk.
Especially the know nowt alleged media types who don't mind wining and dining on our before match fare but can't bring themselves to be nice about us. The lubberworts can go and jump in the river. :-)
Especially the Specsavers needing, whistle blowers who call themselves officials. The embossed carbuncles just still do not recognise who we are, the shiitake mushrooms that they are. We are MANCHESTER CITY, THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD. you fools.

Go for double figures lads, you can do it. :-)

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Let's hope Gundo and Bernardo step up to the plate tonight. Big games needed from them

Needing to see the Gundo after he scored against Feyenoord, looked like the weight of the world was off his shoulders.

Need the Bernie of old - that one maurading run against the dippers was a glimpse of what he’s capable of.

That midfield should be really capable of popping the ball about at a high tempo hopefully
