Atkinson so not too bad

Let's hope we can still say that after the game Karen.

I think he is the best of the bunch but any of them can get conned by the rags and their diving

 

[Armaan]

If we rest our full 11 we will hammer lpool. They were knackered at the end vs Everton. Fuck this game we’ve won the title anyway doesn’t make a difference who it’s against.

whats that writing on the seats ?
3-1 btw

 

[Esteban de la Sexface]

Go on I'll bite.

Which statements were questionable?

All along his philosophy has been the next game. Win the next game. First time I've ever heard him say he has one eye on the game after. Hopefully this doesn't filter to the players, or he is delivering a different message internally.

Also, the being offered pogba could have been left unsaid. Unnecessary, in my opinion.

No doubt Young will be in full diving mode - the twat.

No chance have we moved on from United. Let’s not make that mistake. These ****s are the enemy, always have been, always will be and they will come good again with their resources. We have a once in a lifetime opportunity to grind their noses into the mud. If we don’t take it due to fielding a weakened team then many fans won’t be happy. Half the ST holders don’t even bother going to CL games! If we lose going for it and they just happen to win then so be it but playing 2nd string players today? No way. We have a 20% chance Wednesday, no more. If we rest players it will be maybe 25%. Today if we go all out we have an 80% chance. We rest players and it could go down to 50% or lower depending on how many changes. No brainer for me. Get the buzz back and then the scouse game is shit or bust. One last effort. He can rest who he wants when the league is wrapped up. I could give a shit who he picks after that but I could today.

Absolutely spot on , we beat the Rags , celebrate the title and it would do wonders for the team spirit and our supporters , if we go down to the Dippers we go down fighting , but its the Rags first.

About 4 of them who were playing today will be playing Tuesday

Wish me luck.

I normally watch City matches at home with the wife to avoid the general public but it’s my wedding anniversary today so take her to the main sports bar in Doha (because I’m considerate like that).

Just found out it’s also the place where the Qatar MU supporters club congregate to watch the games. Expect me to be arrested by about 7:30pm BST.

Haha. With you in spirit!

just watched a training vid from thurs and mendy looked in fine fetal, maybe he could make the bench today

Fuck that...imagine if the shoes were on the other foot. United would have come out with the same and the press would have been loving it because of the unrest it would have caused us

Well done Pep i say

We are playing the Rags pal.....for those that haven't suffered years of obnoxious and condescending behaviour by the arrogant ****s,it might be difficult to comprehend the feelings such a fixture produces,but lets just say it doesn't work like you suggest.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

Come on city !!!!!!!

That would be great news...as great as delph has been we have missed him so much this season. For him to be able to play from now onwards would be fantastic or just to get minutes today and possibly more on Wednesday

Always remember the fucking banner !!

Same here, i'm hoping that Mendy gets a spot on the bench today.

 

[rnblade]

The vermin drew v the Toffees, surprise surprise.
We need to go out there today and dominate those rag cnuts. Send them back to the swamp with knowing they’re in for even worse next year.

 

[Bewar3them00n]

There’s no way the players will need motivating for the next two games, they will want to play, not be rested in possibly one of the defining games of the season. Full strength, get the job done, with a decent first half, and manage the game in the second

 

[abu13]

We need to be out of the blocks very fast today, ideally get an early goal and take command of the game.

I f we were to go full strength them I think we would win quite convincingly.

 

[Armaan]

About 4 of them who were playing today will be playing Tuesday

Milner, wijnaldum, VVD, Lovren, Mane, Karius, 6 players. That’s a lot of tired legs to carry about especially against us at home. Plus Firmino and Ox came on too for the last half hour, if we rest our players we still have a decent chance.
