4-0 City.

Out in Tenerife atm all the rags out here think beating us is a done deal it would be great to burst their bubble.

I would rather see Wilson-Esbrand given a start at LB than Nunes in defence

Ortega
Walker
Dias
Gvardiol
JWE
Kovacic
Gundogan
De Bruyne
Grealish
Foden
Haaland

It's going to be a double pivot, or it should be. Wouldn't be surprised to see2 of Kovacic, Nunes and Bernado in there for their mobility, flat back 4 which picks itself, Kev Foden and Jack behind the Viking as the best options for ball control.

Unfortunately I think we'll see Gundog in there somewhere, which given their speed on the break is a mistake in my view

Every game they play is a done deal for the win, this is the difference between us and these self entitled tossers, they dont have a bubble to burst,were having a glitch there having a 12 year nightmare soon to be 13, i allways found the worse of the worse rags in the irish bars out there, keep away from them tomorrow and you'l have a good day, if we win get your top on and get in one and give it them thats if there still there and not scurried off back to there hotel rooms

Berny........Haaland.........Doku/Nunes


Is foden ready? if so swap him out for doku, and Jack out wide or berny and foden on the right, will kova be rusty? do we sacrifice an attacker to pllay gund and kov?

Nunes on the left was effective and tbf at least he has pace and energy so maybe he starts.

Why would you leave Bernardo out

 

[5 Hit Gibbon]

They are shit but so are we at the moment. I hope we win but can't see it the way we are playing. Can't see us keeping a clean sheet so it depends if we are firing going forward. I think it might be a draw.

 

[hihosilva]

The defence is looking really thin atm but Bernardo can do a job filling in Rico's position & probably doing a better job.

Shame we couldn't have recalled the lads at peterborough now with a few months experience of first team action under their belts, Susoho and Kontongo play Holding Midfielder and Right Back ;-)
