Spurs (h) pre-match thread

[Proy]

The back 4 certainly makes me a bit uneasy

 

[mancunianpear]

If Kompany is fit enough to be on the bench, you have to start him over Kolarov in a game this big.

 

[kaz7]

CITY XI | Bravo, Zabaleta (C), Otamendi, Kolarov. Clichy, Yaya, Silva, De Bruyne, Sane. Sterling, Aguero

CITY SUBS | Caballero, Kompany, Fernando, Nolito, Delph, Stones, G. Jesus

That back 5 is so so weak....Another day another dollar

 

[Benarbia]

All out attack. Yaya to do all the legwork in midfield. They will swarm us

 

[mat]

Lolorov starts.

Did he forget what he did last time we played them?

 

[Feed the Elk]

Not Clichy again, hasn't he been replaced? Not sure what to make of the team or why Nolito never gets to start.

Great to see Kompany back on the bench though and can't wait for Jesus' to get on the pitch

 

[Gabriel]

If the front five don't work their socks off, it'll be a rough ride.

 

[mosssideblue]

Willy IS starting in goal.

Should be a boost. Imagine saying that last year....

[Wretched Vengeance]

Interesting that.

Gabriel Jesus on the bench :)

 

[kaz7]

Sagna must be injured,not keep on the back 4 but that's it anyway

 

[PaulMoulden'sRecord]

Going forward, youth, pace, craft and potential to worry any defence in the world...........at the back, gut wretchingly worrying.

 

[blueinsa]

That is an all out attacking side.

Pep has gone balls deep today.

 

[bobmcfc]

Kompany will trip himself up getting off the bench and be out for 2 months

 

[platty7]

think we will get outworked in the middle , hopefully raz and sane can keep their fullbacks pinned back a bit

 

[fergal_oc]

If we're not clinical today it's going to be a long and arduous evening ...

[Tugay One Cup]

Where can I find their lineup?

Looks like we're about to get completely overrun in midfield again.

Edit: cheers Karen

 

[deano ou812]

Backline doesn't fill me with confidence but let's just see what happens ..

 

[abu13]

Happy with Sane Sterling as these guys need to keep Rose and Walker occupied, not sure about Yaya in the middle with no support unless Silva drops deep.

Shitting myself about the defence.
