Presume you are jesting. The legendary Carl Palmer was the drummer in ELP.

Wrong...he played for Sheffield Wednesday

Cozy Powell was the best ELP drummer though.

FFS give it a rest you miserable ungrateful fool. You can't even go on the pre match thread without slagging Pep off.

Thought this was a Forum? Slag off Pep and you’re a “miserable ungrateful fool” or a “Rag”!!

 

[Cotontoquinn]

Fuckin' rag.

Great contribution to the Forum. This your response to any comment you disagree with?

Rag

 

[paulchapo]

WTF is wrong with Stones and Laporte? We need them back soon judging by our defence on Wednesday.

Why would you want to slag him off? Take issue with some of the things he's done sure, but to slag him off seems pretty fucking feeble minded.

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

Adams is still there?

Yes sorry my bad - watching him play for Scotland has obviously sent me into some parallel universe.

 

[BLUE THUNDER]

Stones hasn't played all season, yet manages two games in 3 days for England and comes back injured and wont be ready till AFTER Chelsea i.e October ! Season defining games against Chelsea PSG and Liverpool and likely missing.
WTF ! who pays his huge wages?? us or the National team !! Fuckin disgrace.

 

[kaz7]

Any thoughts on trying Kyle?

I never watched him play there for england so not sure

 

[Manchester33]

Have some belief.

The boys will play their guts out for Ake and his dad.

Yeah, my post seems a bit cold. I really like Ake, I think he's a brilliant professional and seems like an incredibly intelligent young man. Reminds me of a young Kompany. I just shit myself every time he has to defend!

 

[Manchester33]

Give over, Ake needs time or is he another that blues write off far too soon? Why do some always need a fall guy? Rodri, Mahrez, Stones and Jesus are perfect examples why you shouldn't write off players too soon

I wouldn't say he's a fall guy. I like him as a person. But I'm struggling to remember him having a good game? I hope I'm proved wrong, I just don't think he's up to our standards. I guess we'll know in a few years time.

 

[super_city_si]

So who's at the back tomorrow then? Surely we aren't relying on Ake to turn up?

or maybe dinho with gundo at the 6 position?

 

[super_city_si]

Not fit till after Chelsea apparently.

Fuck, not till AFTER Chelsea? Thats a blow

 

[SWPISHOME]

Fuck, not till AFTER Chelsea? Thats a blow

Pep said COULD be after Wycombe and Chelsea he doesn't know. Hopefully at least one will be back my that time sounds more like Laporte could be back before Stones.

As a fourth choice CB he is incredibly high standard.

It’s insane he’s been playing for England if not fit.

Every year we have multiple injuries to key players. We really do seem to suffer more than other teams.

Pissing me right off

 

[Withnail]

Bad news about Stones and Laporte, not convinced by Ake and he must be feeling low at present, but I would play him tomorrow. Won't be an easy game and an early goal would be welcomed.

Ederson
Walker Dias Ake Cancelo
Dhino Foden Kdb
Jesus Torres Grealish

 

[LongsightM13]

Walker and Ruben at CB with Cancelo and Zin at full back maybe?

 

[mancityscot]

can see a high scoring game, 4-2 city
