City will do the buisness,haaland brace possibly a goal from foden 1.3 city

Going for a draw. Were' still getting used to the new system and not up to fitness just yet.

Think west ham will struggle to create chances, although they can be dangerous from corners, Im predicting a 1 nil win but nowhere at our best performance

 

[penalty spot]

Didn’t we beat them 4.0 away on the opening day a few seasons ago, when Raz and Jesus tore them a new one

There a completely different team now unfortunately especially at home.

 

[penalty spot]

Chelsea look like beating us to the Brighton fullback. Willing to pay the 50M. We do have the money from the sales we have made. I think a fast attacking left back is vital.

Good luck to them can't get my head round this.

Oliver ref and Dean VAR.

Dean might be decent as the VAR. With no crowd to play up to

 

[Gus Fring]

???

Saturday he was playing about 3 yards in front of the central defenders with Rodri ahead of him!! Not sure if it was lack of tactical awareness from one/both or some kind of tactic but it wasn’t pleasing on the eye.

Without Sterling and the best presser in the World Jesus, we will need to find a different way in this game. We are well off in terms of fitness and preparation.

Liverpool sat back in the second half and we struggled despite dominating possession. West Ham will set up similar and if we can't press they will be dangerous on the break.
I wonder if he may play rodri and Phillips, if fit.
