Southampton (A) - Sat 22nd Jan, 17:30 | Pre Match Thread

[Tricky_Trev]

Two keepers on the bench.

We’ve had 2 keepers on the bench almost 20 times this season to be fair.

 

[mccity]

I suspect that barring maybe Mahrez, this is what Pep currently feels is the strongest team.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Up to us to entertain the nation, only 1 goal in the 4 games so far today (albeit 3 still in progress)

 

[SerbianBlue]

Hope KDB won’t struggle with soton sitting deep. I feel Bilva will shine tonight. Come on City!

 

[colorado blue]

Assume Palmer is injured?

 

[Vienna_70]

Who is Slicker ?

Academy ‘keeper.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Assume Palmer is injured?

He was m8 so I assume he still is

 

[HorlocksWalk]

Who is Slicker ?

Hope his first name does start with an R

 

[ESP Blue]

Just about to leave Yates, confident now, 3.nil win.
Maybe the beer is talking !

 

[Shaffer92]

Strong team and their fans seem very happy with it.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Could be tricky but I think we will do it today by a couple of goals.

0-2 City

 

[WallyA]

Probably going to be Foden false 9, but hope it's Grealish.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

That team is good enough to beat pretty much anybody.

No excuses. Turn up, be humble, do the hard yards, take our chances.

It is cold so running hard would be good

 

[DenisLawBackHeel74]

no excuses tonight we had a week off...

Does that mean we won't have any rhythm ? ;-)

 

[clarion]

Miss Gundo in that 11.

 

[Scottish Cityzen]

Cracking team, feeling quietly confident as always.

They are decent but hopefully a day where we are clinical in front of goal.

Nice touch that we don’t have to rush Mahrez back from Afcon, as usual trust in the full squad from Pep.

I’m hoping we get something a little special from Jack today, he’s been skirting around it since a very good game against Leeds.

 

[OccupiedPalestineBlues]

I’m loving the line-up and, with us having sufficient time between games to train properly and work on movement, I’m fully expecting us to see JG playing a more effective role.

Probably going to be Foden false 9, but hope it's Grealish.

Barn door and all
