Not arsed what the score is

Lol me either tbh

 

[Gray]

Not arsed what the score is

Been that sort of season.

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Don't think we will be keeping a clean sheet in this one. Just gotta keep ourselves in the tie.
Go with a proper back 4
Id even rest Kev as he looked shattered today and with their pace need players who can track back and run and run.

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Laporte
Ake
Rodri
Gundogan
Foden
Grealish
Haaland
Alvarez

No chance he plays Alvarez over Mahrez.

2-0 City.

 

[David Silva #21]

I predict a narrow 2-1 win.
Pep has to solve the defence problem immediately and bring us a new tactic ASAP.

I don't want to be too irrational about yesterday's result because the performance was good and RB Leipzig aren't likely to approach the game like Forest did yesterday. I believe that this will play into our hands more. If we don't lose the game then I'd say we've had a good result.

I’ve gone from being really confident about our chances, then yesterday happened. Getting dicked here I’m afraid

 

[Tony - MCFC]

Big game, performances have improved recently, we’ll need to improve further to get a result here.

Mahrez back in, Ake at LB, Bern in mid for Gundogan.

 

[mrtwiceaseason]

Most years we are playing well enough to win it and somehow manage to fuck it up ,this year we are far too inconsistent and arnt the best team in the completion so I'm quite confident in a typical city sort of fashion we will win this year :+)

 

[Franny 1234]

I just don't trust Laporte in the UCL. As i said I'd prefer that defence with Stones in there instead and stick with it instead of chopping and changing every game.

It's rare a fit Jonny stones doesn't start.
He's made of glass that's why we have to chop and change. A fit jonny stones and Dias are our best two CB. Unfortunately both been injured this season and its shows in points dropped. CTID

That’s the spirit, Cups for Cock-ups.

Yes I agree with this been up and down I knew we was going to beat Arsenal and not beat Forest as that has been our season, I cant believe we are still in with a chance of winning league still!

With that said I really dont know what to predict with this match, and know one really knows what side Pep will put out for it or tactics for that matter. One thing I do know is that Ederson, Grealish, Rodri and Haaland will start but apart from them anyone could play.

My team would be:

- - - Ederson - - -
Walker - - - Dias - - - Laporte - - - Ake
- - - Rodri - - -
Bernardo - - - De Bruyne/Gundogan
Mahrez - - - - - - - - - - - - - Foden
- - - Haaland - - -
​

That is my number one team for me

Mine too, as long as we are allowed play all twelve of them.

12?

 

[MCFC_KEV]

Ha Ha Ha silly me , edited it now. De Bruyne would be ahead of Gundo normally but he's out of sorts recently but still think a poor Kev can still unlock a goal or assist

 

[Indaparkside]

7/2 Leipzig massive price could pay for your trip, unfortunately I can’t back against us

 

[MillisleBlue]

Haaland at LB, Phil as GK, Eddie as a holding mid-fielder and Dias up top. Make it happen, Baldy!
