From Tuesday's training pics it looks like Rodri is still training on his own. Haaland isn't in the pics but that doesn't mean he wasn't there
 
Shush, Mr. Shush

Come on now. If he doesn't get a trot out before the FA Cup match, then he's not playing this season. And he wouldn't get a game until the Club World Cup. Which everyone doesn't seem to want to play. Which means they don't want to risk him in any of those matches as well. lol
 
Referee: Tim Robinson. Assistants: Tim Wood, Steve Meredith. Fourth official: Andy Madley. VAR: Matt Donohue. Assistant VAR: Nick Hopton.

Probably a closer game than many will think as we are pretty impotent up front these days and they always seem to play well against us. Hopefully the post can keep up its recent form for us :)
I know who Matt Donahue supports.
Won't say it on here as he's a decent lad.
Not one of the red shirts.
 
Do we risk a run out for Rodri for 5-10 minutes? a bit of atune up before the cup final?
If it's a risk there's your answer, but I get what you're trying to say. There will be trepidation the first time he sets foot in a competitive game and fans will be holding their breath at that first challenge.

Could be worth £100m plus playing in it and if we can also grab a champions league spot for next season then like you say, extra cash boost in the coffers for squad improvement and hopefully new and improved deals for Gvardiol and O`Reilly.
I agree but if we finish 3rd (or second) we already lock up a CL spot?

Gonna be more important than domestic cups soon enough.
When that day comes, teams will be fighting very hard for it.

To that end, City (hopefully) will take it really seriously and try to win it as much as possible before the opportunity to get our names on it diminishes.
When the day comes that the CWC is important ???

City will not be playing in the PL any more, it will be the World Super League!!!

Or some other nuisance competition:0(

IMO :0)
 
Does anyone really give a toss about the club world cup?

Yes - new format for the competition and will be better than pre - season friendly's as there will be a more competitive edge. Winning or going deep into the competition will show potential transfer targets and players in general that we are serious about it - it's not the CL but will hold kudos winning it in the
first tournament with the new format. Oh yeah - and then there's the financial rewards..........
 
Ederson, Nunes, Dias, Gvardiol, O'reilly, Nico, Kovacic, KDB, Savinho, Foden, Marmoush,
 
--------------Ederson
Nunes--Dias--Akanji--Gvardiol
---------Kovacic--Bernardo
---------------O'Reilly
---Foden--Haaland--Marmoush

I don't know if Haaland is fit to start. If he is then this would be my team. I would like to see O'Reilly in midfield. Bernardo to play his sweeper role organising the play.
