Could be civil war on here come Sunday evening

We should be conditioned to an opening day loss by now. Usually start the season with dropped points in one of the first few game

Weve not had a opening game at home since 2016!

Last opening game against west ham we won 0-5

Think both Alvarez and Haaland will score, expecting a good win 3-0.

I hope Alvarez starts. He's match fit, he already looks like a natural fit in the way we play and he is a real threat and workhorse.

I’ve got a feeling Rodri and Phillips will start together Sunday. Wouldn’t mind it with de bruyne ahead of them

 

[Bluemooner33]

I would like to see this team so we have pace outwide and through the middle with Haaland, hopefully we drop a few ball's over the top for him this time

Ederson
Walker - Dias - Ake - Cancelo
De Bruyne - Rodrigo - Bernardo
Alvarez - Haaland - Foden​

Get on it then pal; I think you can get 2-1 on us not winning ;-)

Correct, you could lay City at 2/5, or back whu at nearly 9/1...

We looked overrun in that area against Liverpool, so I agree with you. Be rock solid there, KDB or Gundogan in front of them and perm any three from Mahrez, Foden, Grealish, Alvarez, Haaland, Palmer
