Southampton (a) pre-match thread

[mancityscot]

we'll dominate with 68% possession, 22 shots on goal, 12 on target and we'll draw 1-1.

 

[Manchester_lalala]

Their player has a dig from outside the box and scores.

Prior to that we have three players passing the ball to each other no more than a yard apart in Leicester's box, not one of them tried to shoot.

Same agaisnt Chelsea. Sane and Sterling pissing about trying to walk the ball in.

Saints playing Thurs night will help

They could play Saturday and we might still struggle after todays comedy.

.................................Ederson

Walker...........Otamendi.........Laporte..............Danilo

.............................Hopefully Fern

Mahrez.................Foden.......de Bruyne...........Sane

.................................Aguero

No way will Zinchenko start at leftback against Liverpool - might as well give Danilo a go there to get him fitter.

Don't know if Silva is fit enough to start and Bernardo could probably do with a rest, but I said Walker could also probably do with sitting out the next two games (Leicester &Southampton) yet here I have included him.

 

[City Raider]

Start for Foden and a win in which he plays a key role would lift whole club when we need it.

Cant we put laporte left back might give us some extra cover in defence.stop playing stones at dm its killing us.id play kdb at the base and 2 x silva for creativity .sane kun and sterling.

Teams from now on will target our two weak spots the full backs and get crosses in. With our confidence low I can see a draw on the cards for this game.

On a side note how much do we have to spend to get two top quality full backs ? It's a sad state that after all these years we still need both sides sorted out.

I'll think it's just "to you" these days...

I like your optimism, sir! More of that, please.
