Moonchester says fuck off, and where was she when we were shit?

Sorry I'd heard he was injured!

 

[supercity88]

i dont think ederson, akanji, stones, cancelo, rodri, de bruyne, bernardo or haaland will play.

Ortega
Lewis
Stones
Ake
WIlson Esbrand
Gomez
Gundogan
Grealish
Palmer
Mahrez
Alvarez

Second half bring in Akanji and Laporte. Can bring on Foden for a stint perhaps. The likes of Mahrez and Grealish would benefit from a full game I think.

yeah grealish and mahrez will play imo as will ake but if we play the young fullbacks then dias will be in there to marshall the defence.

Last time he was injured is when me and my mate got his head half off at half time at Lincoln in div 2, fuck did he struggle to avoid being named and shamed

 

[Stoned Rose]

everyone that needs it, wrapped up in cotton wool and rested for this game.
Bernie, KDB, Cancelo need a rest.
As many kids as we can get away with.

Prince Andy enjoys this post.

Is Gomez eligible now after his sending off?

Pretty sure it's a one game ban in Europe for a foul. Walker had the extras because it was violent conduct. I'd slot him into midfield and let Wilson-Esbrand play at LB. Have Gundogan in there for his experience (wouldn't personally start him against Fulham). Play Grealish wide left, Palmer in the 10 role and Mahrez wide right behind Alvarez. Switch the CBs up giving a half each to 4 of them and resting Dias. Or play Gomez wide left and stick Grealish more central.

If he’s eligible he should definitely start, Cancelo needs a break.

Absolutely. Fans pay good money for these matches. Not saying they shouldnt go and I respect their support but I do think they are sold short for these damp squib fixtures.

Did anyone seriously expect this game to have anything riding on it? More fool them if so and as others have said, the ticket prices reflected that

 

[supercity88]

It makes me wonder if it's worth me being out the door at 6:30 am Wednesday, then rushing home from work to get ready get the train to picadilly and then potentially getting back home around 11 pm for this dead rubber

Of course it's worth it! Witnessing the next City greats in Lewis, Wilson-Esbrand and Palmer. What more could you want on a Wednesday? It's not cold yet either. Better than turning up for a game we should win but getting hammered in like the good old days.
