Pre Match Thread | Sunderland v City

[Luck95]

Same here, no need for such a strong line up. If we can't put a couple past Sunderland tonight with that team, then questions need to be asked.

Totally agree. No excuses.

And you just know we'll pick another injury up in this game now.

I imagine the engineer has been up all night at his drawing board coming up with that line up.

 

[MCFC1993]

It would be a different line up if we hadn't just lost 2 straight games, get the game in the bag before giving the young ones a run out, I understand his choices, I can see an argument for Roberts instead of Navas but he probably wants to try and kill the game off early.

 

[The Twigg]

I can see Roberts coming on for Aguero pretty soon into the second half if were leading with sterling being moved up front

 

[deano ou812]

Are both bony and nacho injured ? What the fcuk is going on with us and injuries...

 

[i8rags]

Two defeats and two away games to come before chumps game, strong it has to be, lose tonight with a weak side and pressure on sat will be immense, win tonight with Sergio scoring and spuds away looks a whole different game.

Hopefully not in the warm up again , the way things are going Id tell em all to stay in the dressing room until kick off

 

[bIue]

Its important for a team with 3 new players to play together as much as they can.

That line up is a good decision by MP.

Our finishing on a whole has been woeful this season. The number of chances we have missed against Chelsea, Watford, Palace, Juve and West Ham is ridiculous. We need our strikers to find their mojo sooner rather than later and this is a perfect game for Aguero to start to get his form back.

Put them to the sword early on then bring Yaya, De Brunye and Aguero off.
