I think with that team the paper boy put out today he wants to have a go at us rather than Wolves. Sterling, Kev and Fernandinho have had a breather the rag twats could be in trouble.

Hasn't got much choice really - it's a semifinal against us.
We just need a plan to stop the counterattacks. Wouldn't surprise me if Garcia and Stones play, with Fernandinho in midfield. Don't think we'll go gung-ho in the first leg.

They have to come at us with their raggy hordes begging for them to attack. Perfect if so as we can pick them off on the transitions, probably the reason we have a better record at Old Trafford than at the Etihad. Don’t want Bravo anywhere near this game but think Pep will keep him in.
 
I watched on in amazement the other day as Rooney told rat boy that he was embarrassed by the way United screamed at officials, has a time seen it, got the clip/program it was on?

I think Ederson will play. It’s an easy sell to Bravo - just tell him that Ederson is our league goalkeeper but has been out for a while so needs a game before the league to get him up to speed

If that doesn’t work then simply tell him he’s shite and given his current form deserves dropping anyway

BBC report claiming they didn't manage a single shot on target yesterday, "for first time in five years".

I don’t like the ‘shot on target’ stat - one team could have 3 shots from 30yrds which are straight forward saves but the other team could knock 3 over from 6 yards out

My point is that shots on target don’t necessarily tell the story of the game. That said, I think it probably gives an accurate reflection of the game yesterday

I'm not sure they will. Would be happy for them to do so, but they may just repeat what happened in the league, defend with everyone and chase counterattacks.
