Can’t help but think Poch opened a smile seeing Sterling in the lineup

Time for him to deliver big time

 

[Fordyboy46]

He always shows up, he may not be at his best, or at the moment be our best option, but he is nowhere near a player that hasn’t showed up.

Disagree with that mate

 

[Essex blue]

He's a city player , is that not enough

Sterling will score tonight, he is long overdue a goal and tonight will be the night

 

[Silva2021]

Great defence, superb attack, championship midfield

I think any team in the world takes Verratti TBH

Great bunch of individuals, jury is out on whether Poch can make them a team.

However, if he does they would be one of the best teams in the world

 

[jimharri]

That front 3 of theirs is a joke isn’t it?!

Not a patch on ours!

 

[blueparrot]

Disagree with that mate

No surprise there.

 

[Scott mcfc]

No surprise that Pep goes with a strong team here. Hope we don’t pay for this on Sunday.

Liverpool have also put there strongest team out

 

[Vester]

Don't like that side, for me it should be full rotation or best 11 no Inbetween. No real rest for players who will be crucial come the weekend.

This is obviously what Pep consider to be his best XI at the moment.

 

[VinceYoungisaBLUE]

Agree with the general sentiment here, hoping and praying Sterling can get it together after being picked for another big game he probably doesn't deserve to start in.

Need a big game from Mahrez as well, and a GIANT stage for Jack to shine.

Fuck this should be fun!

 

[Chris B]

That Paris front three is unreal, less convinced by their midfield.

I thought Pep might go for a weaker team given this fell between two massive league games but he’s put out a near full strength team too. I think we look more like a team than them, and if we really needed to win we would.

I just hope they don’t resort to the petulant stuff they did last season if we start bossing the game again. It was embarrassing to watch.

Overall, not a Scooby-do how this one will go.

 

[PhdWave]

Herrera Gueye is PSG version of Fred Mctominay (zero creativity)..Veratti is the main connection between defense and attack. If we mark him out the front 3 can be isolated I think..

 

[JGL07]

Bernardo? Rest? Not in his dictionary mate

A new Duracell battery will keep him going for weeks.

 

[Didsbury Dave]

Was never going to go weak. Both psg and Liverpool play exactly the same times as us all week

 

[Nihilist]

Sterling def deserves a chance , he is not done. He has carried England to the euros final this summer. Maybe this is his game.

 

[PhdWave]

I hope Bernie takes it a bit slow today. No human being can maintain that level of energy he showed vs chelsea for 3 matches in a week...

 

[kaz7]

I like the team, theirs is scary though

COME ON BLUEBOYS

 

[FantasyIreland]

He always shows up, he may not be at his best, or at the moment be our best option, but he is nowhere near a player that hasn’t showed up.

He doesn't show up in terms of consistency,contribution or influence.Thats not to say he isn't giving his best.

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

I don't think there is any pressure on us to win tonight as even if we get beat we should be fine getting out of the group. I fancy us to win though and if we do we are really in the driving seat for topping the group.

Should be a great game.

 

[cookster]

Going to miss the press without Jesus and Foden.

Sterling is due a good game ;)

 

[FantasyIreland]

Hopefully when we are 4 up,McAtee can get the last 20 mins.
