I may be being harsh on the lad here but...Lewis shouldn't have been diving into tackles while on a yellow away from home when the crowd are going to be causing bedlam at any opportunity.

Something he'll learn from, I'm sure.

Lewis was actually the one fouled and VAR should have looked at it as a potential penalty IMHO.

Alty and twatwell

Prepare to be kicked to death before alty remembers his cards at the 80th minute

No pens for us but one for them thanks to twatwell

Ederson
Nunes
Dias
Gvardiol
Lewis
Kovacic
Bernardo Silva
De Bruyne
Foden
Doku
Haaland

If we go in with Kovacic as the only reasonably disciplined midfielder who can run, we’ll get turned over imo!!

 

[bondsman]

Nunes at fullback. Wow

 

[Mancini’s Pastilles]

Nunes at fullback. Wow

No harm in trying something. Whats worst can happen. We lose?

 

[Ajm1985]

Have advocated Nunes as a RB before (can't be worse than Walker currently is) and I'm intrigued by Pep thinking about wingbacks. With his pace and crossing ability (he can actually find Haaland with a cross), it would be a good role for him. Don't know what we'd do on the left WB though

 

[kaz7]

Dont think pep was serious about nunes !

As stated we need a new approach to the terrible decisions of these bent refs. Say nothing ( just a very dirty look) let our staff play hell at the refs. ( don’ t lose players). New approach! Also when our lads get fouled make sure we stick our foot in immediately. Make these bent t…s look stupid.

0-0 would appear a good result right now. We can't score and if we put all our 11 on our goalline they shouldn't sucker punch us on the break.

Even better,(but dependent on winning the toss for kick-off): All ten outfield players form a tight circle round the ball,progress crab-like up the pitch and score,then from the re-start,all eleven players on the goal-line for the rest of the game.

A quick look on Sad Cafe and they don't seem at all upbeat about their chances
