Sheffield Utd (H) | Pre-Match Thread

whys that?

Maybe Pep wants to give them a goal start like the Rags did but then come back to win comfortably, like the Rags didn’t :)

 

[stonerblue]

I swapped him out for Calvert-Lewin, that worked for me didn't it :(

Hope Gabby get's on the scoresheet for you (and us), got a feeling he might, also got a hope that Dias gets his first today.

LAST goal hopefuly

I do wish we had a less thoughtful manager. Big Sam, moyes...

You`ve forgotten Ole. ;)

There is no City 11 that isn't or shouldn't be capable of beating Sheffield.

3 of our 4 available creators are playing.

None of our attackers are in form, so it doesn't matter which one starts.

We have 2 of or 3 best one v one defenders. On and our one time absolute best defender who's trying to get back in form.

We will be fine. And if things aren't working, we have Sterling, Cancelo and Mahrez to bring on.


Nothing to worry about

Rotating Stones isn't that much of an issue, Cancelo will be a bigger miss, we should be beating Sheffield United regardless of the team we put out though.

Yeah exactly, if we can’t win then seriously there is some issues

Have SU got any players missing

 

[PragueBlue]

That is an argument. OK. Hope that ends with this game. Laporte is not on Johns level after the injury and he should stay as backup player. We had very weak Defence last year with him on the pitch.

One of the reasons for our poor defence last season was because Laporte was out for much of it.

I’m holding you responsible at quarter to five when we find ourselves trailing 0-1. :p

Win would be a nice birthday gift, cmon city!!!!

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

If we go behind the matchday thread could get a bit tasty today!

They have for most of the season ... AWOL.

 

[ballinio]

Don’t often say this but I like that team....I need to sit down

 

[yeseye]

More then happy with this 11.
Most of the squad getting game time, which is great.
It’s a squad that will win us trophies not our best 11 every week!

I’ve just read they have made four changes from the team that beat the Rags. I don’t know if that makes them stronger or weaker but that seems like a lot of changes for a struggling team that just had their first win.

 

[Bill]

And City have done it dozens upon dozens of times and won. As have those two teams you mention. Get over yourself.

no

? You got a bet on?

 

[nellyonthewing]

Game face on City -get it done.

 

[Nightmare Walking]

Have to say Michael Brown is by far my favourite summariser. Well spoken, clear, concise, no bias and does not just come out with clichés.

 

[roubaixtuesday]

Fancy Torres to get on the score sheet today.

Come on blues!
