Real Madrid (H) - Tue 26th April, 20:00 (BST) | Pre-Match Thread | Team news (pg 67)

[Trickyblues]

Isn't this the guy who used to give team news out early

Hmm interesting… pretty sure he has connections with Laporte. I know he did with Aguero

 

[leo_city]

There's no evidence of him saying that aside a translated tweet. We will just have to wait and find out.

We’re miles better than them.

Better yes, miles better no. No need to sound rawkish.

That said, a convincing win is possible. But even a draw wouldn't be too bad. Apparently, their style suits our style better than Atlético's, we can get a result at Bernabéu.

Fuck knows what the tweet really says but I'll go along with it :)

He's mates with Sergio, Hopefully it's true.

I do not know why but I'm not stressed about today. And that's not typical of me. I just think we are a much much better team, Real were very lucky to reach the semi-finals, to their credit it should be said that they knew how to take advantage of the gifts the rivals gave them. Bottom line - we must not give them gifts and we must take advantage of our opportunities. Each goal can be decisive here, so I hope we will not need 10-15 shots to score a goal.

I have a feeling that Stones will play today so:

Ederson
Stones
Dias
Laporte
Ake
Rodri
KDB
Gundogan
Mahrez
Foden
Jesus

 

[richards30]

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Laporte
Ake
Rodri
KDB
Gundogan
Bernardo Silva
Foden
Jesus

 

[Cotton Weave Blue]

Wouldnt suprise me if Walker plays, he is naturally fit so wont need the training like others. His pace is the game changer imo

 

[alexmcity]

The tweet about Walker is genuine:

 

[This CITY is OURS 14]

The tweet about Walker is genuine:

Hope this is true, but who is Jose Alvarez and how would he know?

 

[cibaman]

Putting Zinchenko at RB because of injuries as i don't think Pep will risk a kid in this one. Chelsea had loads of chances in both of their games, so If we keep it tight at the back, we will win.

Ederson

Zinchenko
Dias
Laporte
Ake

KDB
Rodri
Bernardo

Jesus
Foden
Sterling

3-1 to us ( Jesus, Foden, KDB)

COME ON CITY!!!

Unless Walker is fit, whoever plays right back will offer very little going forward. Zinchenko would be nothing like as productive at right back as he is left back. And Ake is a decent defender but doesn’t offer anything like as much as Zinchenko going forward. Unless Zinchenko plays at left back we will severely reduce the contribution of the full backs on both flanks.
