Spurs v City - CL QF I - Pre Match Thread

[abu13]

Why is Sane never playing at the moment? tbh I prefer Sterling on the right, Bernardo Silva in the middle and Sane on the left.

Pep recently seems to prefer Sterling coming in from the left.

Bernardo injured.

Fuck.

“Hopefully we can have him from the next days”

That’s Pepish for he’ll be back training in a few days

With Bernardo missing I would not be heart broken with a 3-2 defeat so long as we get away goals.

Think it will be a draw tonight 2-2..

I will happily take a score draw tonight.

Hmm, no wonder Pep says the quadruple is difficult! Very surprised that Sane isn't starting - with Bernardo and Kev not starting we could do with a bit of penetration.

Bernardo injured. Slight muscle strain according to Goal journalist.

Strange team. I'd have gone SAS.

I think pep is operating a well planned and executed rotation system for this season’s remaining games, he has handled these end of season run-ins before and done quite well...:)

Son is the dangerman

I suspect this is true.
Silva to follow Eriksen around when appropriate maybe.

Pep didn't sound too hopeful about bernie

Yeah, sounds good.
