Best we could muster under the circumstances. Looking forward to see the lads in action again

 

[cleavers]

Will Fodens head be right?
Thought pep would have given him some time out.

Why ? He doesn't read Bluemoon (if he's got any sense).

The two sitting with kdb infront puts a lot of responsibility on kdb, on one hand it gives him more licence going forward but on the other it becomes a lot easier to counter, stop kdb and we lose a huge part of our attacking threat.

Bit weird playing Foden out wide when we’ve got mahrez and Torres on the bench and no first team midfielders on the bench but considering the options I’m happy enough with that side.

Are we assuming cancelo and zinchenko are injured or off?

 

[SebastianBlue]

Anyone know where zinchenko, cancelo and Bernardo are?

All had extended contact with Ilkay?

 

[ScottSinclair]

Can see a debut for Delap.

Does he throw the ball anything like his father?

 

[paulchapo]

3-1 Wolves looking at that team. Mendy and Stones together at the back, I'm already watching through fingers.

 

[BringBackSwales]

No idea, and Zinchenko

Bernie got injured playing for Portugal, Zinchenko is at home with his Mrs writing a book on football tactics, not sure about Cancelo

 

[jimharri]

Why ? He doesn't read Bluemoon (if he's got any sense).

Oi!

Not an image I needed thanks.

 

[RayCTID]

A best team we can put out given the circumstances

 

[chesterbells]

doyle is being integrated into the first team squad. Next one after foden

Those lads on the bench tonight to start Thursday.

No need punishing the lad even further, I think it's going way over the top as it is. Best thing for Phil is to get back to what he does best and that's playing football. I expect a good performance tonight.

I think Phil will be out there as a fuck you message to the press and play well.

Stones and Ake could prove to be a good partnership. Because Garcia has made his bed it's time for John to own his spot.

 

[Damanino]

Really interested to see Ake in City defence. Rodri/Ferna shuld provide more protection than what the defence usually gets.

Counters will still be needed to watched carefully.

traore always seem to have a big game against us Mendy will need to stand up to him otherwise he will be punished by him.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Well done to the young lad delap, is it going to be a ‘remember the name’ moment? No pressure

scrape a 2-1 but not confident

Might not be far off with that prediction mate

 

[Grealish’s Shinpads]

I reckon it might be a fluid 4-4-2 / 4-2-2-2 with Kev on the right and Foden on the left but it’s always difficult to call with Pep. Could just as easily be 3 at the back with Dinho in the middle.

Feel uneasy about Stones playing but we’ll just have to wait and see how it goes.

I’m sure we will create plenty of chances, just a question of whether we take them or not.

 

[BringBackSwales]

Is Laporte injured ? Only reason I ask is I thought his none appearance was due to self isolating after a positive test same as Mahrez but strangely he’s on the bench ...

He got Covid, started training later than Mahrez

 

[SebastianBlue]

Not an image I needed thanks.

Don’t worry, Kyle was obviously not involved.
