Swansea vs City pre match thread

not one young player on the bench again ...

 

[whp.blue]

Milner Toure Lampard
No pace our midfield will get over run

Going to be a long afternoon me thinks

 

[greasedupdeafguy]

Fucking annoying tbh, after the whole season of constantly playing navas and rotating every single week when the leaguje is actually over he actully sticks with our best side.

 

[whp.blue]

who is on the bench?

 

[aguero93:20]

If anything they should have decided to take that marketing decision early,may be we would still be in contention

Agreed when its too late he stops rotating the bloody defence

Wholly agree with no changes to the back but how anyone can attribute our current run of form to Lampard starting is beyond me.

Post Hoc Ergo Proptor Hoc seems to be the motto of the forum these days.

Always thought it was movere querar, ergo sum.

Three strikers on the bench.....

Pretty excessive to say the least, but its a vital game, like every single game we will ever play, so those kids can fuck off cos unless they're called messi they ain't getting near the bench.

 

[Benarbia]

MCFC: Hart, Zabaleta, Demichelis, Mangala, Kolarov, Fernandinho, Yaya Toure, Milner, Lampard, Silva, Aguero.

Only one change.

Yaya for Nando.

I am baffled as to why Pellegrini after being a jerk all season has suddenly, when the league has gone, showed a fair amount of common sense.

When he started to realise he may lose his job

It's certainly not cogito ergo sum.

The difference is that two of the "strikers" can effectively play elsewhere on the pitch (and one of them isn't really a striker).

Which is a stupid attitude to have and means that players like D.Suarez will keep leaving for frees to Barcelona. Guessing it'll be Lopes leaving on a free next, probably to Bayern or Madrid.

While Pellergrini is manager, no.

Edit: I think people may have been missing my sarcasm and think I was serious... my lord :p

We look very leggy and pace-less in midfield today.

Not convinced but I do feel we can get some sort of result.

 

[Utter bobbins]

They played yesterday

 

[Healdplace]

Frank Lampard starting these last few games is surely because they are letting him end his Premiere League career on a high. Good on them for that.

Will Sky give his last ever game next Sunday the Stevie G treatment? Probably not even on TV.

I agree. Swansea will be hungry and press—starting Lampard will be like playing a man down.

Giving it to him now
