A draw would be more than acceptable

 

[Rammy Blue]

Might be a blessing in disguise Kev not being available tomorrow, means Pep can’t select him and Gundo in the same midfield.

I‘d have preferred no Gundo but beggars can’t be choosers.

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

Sometimes we've played better without Kev

Yep, Kev seams to have lost a bit of his sparkle this season.

Maybe unpopular but I would like to see Alvarez in false 9 and Haaland on the bench for this one.

We will do well to come away with a draw or narrow defeat? Seriously? You underestimate our club and where we are in Europe. We just beat Arsenal away from home scoring 3 btw. Should have scored buckets at Forest as well.

I don't see City going into any game in the world being second favorites and I am generally a pessimistic guy.

Didn’t score buckets at forest though did we smart arse?

I actually want to see both co-exist.

Julian as False 9 and Haaland drawing attention of 6 defenders and cleaning up in front of goal.

 

[Gray]

So are Laporte and de Bruyne injured?

yes that is the best if we can pull it off, but we tried it multiple times and did not work, maybe because we loose one man in midfield?

Who knows what might have been said or gone on after the Forest game.
