Pre Match Thread - City v Juventus (update for injuries)

[taconinja]

Only worry is Nasri was a lot better in the middle than the left on Saturday and he's going to be outwide tonight

4-3-3 perhaps with Nasri playing deeper along with Toure and Fernandinho?

Good to see sergio,he might just be there as a mind game though

 

[Mossy1973]

Just seen Kun arriving behind Kompany on BT Sports he was walking OK so maybe just a knock and no ligament/muscle damage. Good news for weekend.

 

[Sergio Picasso Aguero]

Wanted KDB to start but hopefully Nasri repays Pellegrini's faith.

 

[bert38]

well balanced team-with a v strong bench if needed

 

[Pellegrini]

Nasri has played well so deserves a start I suppose, though i would have preferred KDB.

Don't think so mate then Silva's outwide and we need him in the No 10

 

[smiles]

sterling left, silva 10, nasri right

 

[razman]

Very interesting line up.. Indeed

 

[aguero93:20]

Sergio :) I'd say Allegri shit himself when he saw that team sheet.

 

[stablemcfc]

Fair team choice IMO. Nasri has played well & would have been harsh to drop him. Will have to show he can be consistent now by putting in another good performance. Strong bench.

 

[Uncle Wally One Ball]

Jugears just said that they think Aguero may on the bench after all

 

[Man city fan 72]

Waheyyyyyyyyyy Sergio included in the squad. Wise not to throw KDB in from the start. Come on City.

Not that I watched Swansea too awful much, but I seem to recall him playing out as a wide forward (in a similar fashion to how we deployed Dzeko at times) somewhat effectively. I may be completely misremembering, though.

 

[shemnel]

it'll be grand, KDB will get half hour. 2-0, home and hosed.

 

[kaz7]

That team should be enough for a win,probably a 1-0 though

That'll do me.

 

[ninjamonkey]

No real surprises with that team. Just like Palace, he's keeping Nasri sweet just like he does with Navas and just like he did with Milner last year.

 

[herrock]

Another busy night in europe for Fernandinho, covering Yaya Nasri and Silva!

which I find frustrating a bit, should always play the best possible XI. You didn't see Luis Enrique trying to keep Pedro happy by dropping Suarez or Neymar last season, in important matches
