Where have you heard that?

He trained properly-Pep confirmed as much in presser.

It's like groundhog day on here. Before the Leeds match then the Newcastle match, people were flapping, saying these were gonna be really hard games. We won both with an aggregate score of 9-0. Have faith blues, we've got this.

 

[pudge]

Unfortunately Walker certainly won't be playing tomorrow.

I realised that too before typing it out but my complete mistrust in Cancelo somehow still shone through

Nice one, not had chance to listen to his pre match press conference.

its funny the nerves is on anther level from some posters we will win easy tomorrow

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

Over to us now.

 

[Cobwebcat]

It will be very tough tomorrow. They don't concede many. Just about one goal per fixture across the season and the 4th best goals conceded in the league. We absolutely need to take all our chances

An early goal from city wrecks them

Fingers crossed

I can see why some are suggesting we should play Rodri next to Laporte and Gundogan as the number 6 but I think it would be too disruptive.

Fernandinho at centre back obviously isn't ideal but at least that way it's only the defense that gets disrupted rather than the defence AND the midfield. I don't think it would be wise to break up the Rodri-Bernardo-KDB midfield that has been so successful this season.

Hopefully it's only for one game and Ake is back for West Ham.

Rodri centre back..midfield three of fern,kdb , bernardo is the way pep will go.

 

[Pedestrian]

Cant play Fern from the start..he is a real liability now... he's far too slow .. red card definitely if he plays more than 50 minutes. Please Pep do not go down the 'experience route' tomorrow.....could really de- rail us. Love fern but just cant play at this level anymore.... no shane in that I mean so many have retired at mid 30' s please bow out with cameo for 15 mins when all is safe last game of season

It’s painful to admit but I think you’re right. There’s no way rodders should be accommodating anyone. He’s the most important player now imo.

 

[citymad]

Who the hell said dippers had the harder run in ? Probably three of the toughest fixtures coming up. We win them we will deserve the title. If we do it with a make do defence then it will be one of the best won titles ever.

Most of Wolves' results against the teams above them tell a tale:

Wolves 0-1 Spurs
Wolves 0-1 Utd
Wolves 1-0 West Ham
Wolves 0-1 Liverpool
City 1-0 Wolves
Wolves 0-0 Chelsea
Utd 0-1 Wolves
Wolves 0-1 Arsenal
West Ham 1-0 Wolves

Time to watch from behind the sofa for this one then.

 

[RayCTID]

This might not make it any easier for the nerves but Wolves lost to a 90th minute Origi goal vs the dips

Rodri centre back..midfield three of fern,kdb , bernardo is the way pep will go.

You could well be right. I just think it would be better to keep our first choice midfield together for the rest of the team to function as best as it possibly can in the circumstances.

They rode their luck in a few games and weren't too clever vs Villa. Hardly plain sailing for them

Err not quite my friend. Still have hammers and slippy g to contend with. Slippy won’t let his boys roll like they did today. It’s going to the last game..a potential nightmare situation.

It’s time. win tomorrow and it’s over. The west ham result will take care of itself. Head into the Villa game knowing a point will do. Tomorrow the players will step up and end the title race.

 

[Spiderman]

Full scale attack mister Pep, no philosophy please

 

[leo_city]

Wolves aren't in the best form and have lost their best defender in Kilman, if we play to our strengths we should beat them, just don't let them attack us aggressively and we should be fine.
