Spurs (A) - Sun 5th Feb, 16:30 | Pre-Match Thread

[Roachy]

Maybe drop Gundo and put Alvarez behind Haaland? Or Grealish? He's improving but still wildly inconsistent. Either way, it's a Pep problem. But for me, Alvarez belongs in our best XI

Gundo not offering tons at the moment, so maybe yes.

Another must win game as we'll probably be 8 points behind going in to this.

We just need to keep picking up wins and hopefully we'll start to build some momentum.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

I'm hoping we'll have a fit and focused Foden back ready to play.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Agree. All 3 in for Lewis, Mahrez and Gundogan

Can't see Mahrez being left out

Can't see Mahrez being left out

Maybe not and he has been good recently but he was pretty average last night and has played a lot. I can’t see us going too gung on so if Alvarez does play, it will probably be at the expense of him or Grealish. I think more likely is that Alvarez doesn’t play

 

[mancityvstoke]

Anyone said it yet?

Fuck off Spurs

 

[jimharri]

Can't see Mahrez being left out

He shouldn't be. He's been our most consistent performer since the resumption after that nonsense in Qatar.

 

[super_city_si]

We should win. It should be a good win. But we dont win there do we? Or do we?

Lost our last 6 away games at Spurs (not counting the two wins when they were at Wembley)

Our last win on their home turf was 2015.

I hate Spurs away.

I can't stand them full stop - home or away.

 

[Shah9320]

Think we'll be bang up for this, especially after Arsenal get dyched Saturday lunchtime

Son just scored 2 goals in fa cup. Is he back in form before city game? I am already bricking it!

lol.

Can’t see anything there but a defeat, unfortunately. City might come away with a draw, but I doubt it. Hopefully we’ll s ore a goal?

Don’t think we’d beaten Arsenal in FA cup for decades - so it’s the year we break these superstitions!!!

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

We’ll smash them…by a goal victory

I've said that after our last few wins but performances haven't really reflected that

Albeit the results have, so let's hope that continues

 

[Legal Alien]

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Laporte
Ake
Rodri
De Bruyne
Bernardo Silva
Grealish
Alvarez
Haaland

Yeah i'd pick that team, It has decent pace and a lot of running.
It's time for Walker, Laporte and Bernardo to get a run i think, they all played well when they came on yesterday, but Walker did look a bit rusty and we need him to get 100% before we play the arse as Martinelli had the better of him.
I would give Lewis and Mahrez a rest and Foden needs to step it up if he's going to get in this team.

---------------Ederson--------------
Walker----Dias----Laporte----Ake
---------------Rodri------------------
Bernardo---De Bruyne---Grealish
--------Alvarez----Haaland--------

We win 3-1
