Pep throwing a curveball in the CL playoffs yet again. Was thinking that our chances to win were depending on Gundogan starting or not. Now I think we’ll lose. Fernandinho and Kun on the bench, unbelievable.

They basically have a Liverpool fan giving their opinion on City and the FFP farce. Great build up for the City fans BT!

Why the fuck is crouch doing our game,saying the players will all be phoning their agents in the summer,at least we have joe on the panel

I don't know why anyone watches it, they're just wind up merchants the let of them, put it on at kick off.

I think Gabby is a better fit, he closes down quicker, presses better and covers more ground and gives 100%

So if he wants that in his players why are Gundogen and Rodrigo in

When the flappers have calmed down a bit, they need to ask themselves a question.

Who’s on pens tonight?

 

[Blu1]

Wow! pep & he’s selections.

Not sure what to make of that team. It might be the best option. Plus to have Aguero & Sterling to bring on is a big threat

is he just packing the midfield out to ensure we don’t loose this game ?

 

[bluemc1]

Pep knows we won’t be allowed to win this Comp so Sunday more important



oh I don’t fuckin know

 

[ShaunMCFC]

Come on boys, nice 4-0 win to stick it to them bent fucks

Gundogan best put in a stormer of a performance tonight. The only way he can get people off his back for his constant selection is if he really steps up.

Seriously can't understand why Pep wouldn't play Fern in midfield if he's not selecting him at CB. Exactly the type of player Rodri needs next to him to make up for his lack of legs.

Pep always likes to make a surprise selection in a big European away fixture, but it usually bites him in the arse. Hopefully tonight can buck that trend.

decent line up, and I can follow most choices but gundog over fern, assuming going with 2 defensive midfielders, is a bit daft, and if he's playing gundog as an 8 then my old ma would be a better option :/
