Nice early goal please

 

[UncleBerbs]

Only 13 appearances in Prem, few others in CL and cups.

Would have loved to see more of Stones this season. His partnership with Dias last season was something else!

I know he is a quality player but his injury record is very concerning for the most part, Dias got injured because he's played a lot so it is understandable, Aké is fine too, Laporte also rather fit now after a huge ACL injury but Stones since he's joined has been the same, great when playing but sudden injury and out.

Stones and Dias is our best partnership. Dias has still played more than Stones this season. And Stones was out of favour prior to last season so has never played a huge amount for us in any season. Even last season he only managed 35 appearances in all competitions, 24 in the league.

Dias is better at LCB weirdly. The same way Cancelo is better at LB despite being right footed. Ake is injured a lot but hopefully can come back for West Ham and Villa as he's looked brilliant when he has played this season. He'll have to play the LCB role with Laporte at RCB. Ederson, Laporte, Ake, Zinchenko, Bernardo, Foden, Mahrez... Pep loves a lefty. He's just signed another one as well!

Getting picked up in 20 minutes, really looking forward to this, nervous like I am every game, same as Sunday please, winning at half then see the game out, 3 more wins will do nicely, Cmon City.

This is the one that's concerned me for weeks. If we win this then I'll believe.

Will be tough but Wet Sham is more of a concern for me.

Have they anything they need to play for?

————-——Ederson————
Cancelo—Fern—Laporte—Zinchenko
———-Bernardo—Rodri———-
——————De Bruyne———-
Mahrez———-Jesus———-Foden

Can‘t see it being Rodri at centre half. We‘re obviously going to be weaker than usual at the back, why compound that by making ourselves weaker in midfield, too?
That right side of the defence is a concern, but nothing really for it. Just have to do all we can to stop them getting enough good ball to test them.
And ideally score a few, so any errors there don‘t hurt us …
2-1 City

Are we there yet ? Dragging again , 20.15 meh

 

[el wey]

I'd like to see Gundo in the midfield to help out Fern at the back. Maybe KDB false 9.
Don't know.
Just a bit concerned.
Fucking hell.

 

[yankblue]

Oh right, there's a match today
