Wolves (h) pre-match thread

[Tarzan41]

Many thanks for your responses.

Northern Quarter. Near Piccadilly. Loads of decent places for Ale and about £6 in a taxi.

Yes sir, i would assume some have 4 different sources. I assume they also will be looking to add more literally seconds before kickoff as the chans for these matches often change. BEIN max 7 is French but pretty sure they will have that, arena, espn brazil and hopefully espn 3 canada which ofc will have English audio.

Won't be an easy match tomorrow but hope we give game time to some of the kids!

My line-up would be:

Bravo
Danilo Stones Mangala Delph
Gundogan Yaya Foden
B.Silva Aguero Diaz

Subs: Muric, Tosin, Walker, Jesus, Sterling, Nmecha, Zinchencko

If Diaz is injured (heard he might be) then id give a game to Zinchencko.

With Diaz out injured and Foden away on international duty, do we think Matondo might get a place on the bench? Has presumably been very good at youth level this season.

Ffs didn't realise that! Kids are cursed against getting minutes.

This had better not be true. http://www.manchestereveningnews.co...tball-news/man-city-team-news-wolves-13798946

Guardiola in the MEN: “On Tuesday we will play 11 new players.
“There are a lot of games and maybe there are players now who play more regularly than other ones – but in February and March that isn't going to happen"

Why? Surely out of the four competitions we are competing in you want squad rotation in this one???

Bravo
Danillo
Tosin
Mangala
Zinchenko
Yaya
Ilkay
??????
Bernado
Sterling
Jesus

Diaz was a banker so I think we will be forced to use Aguero. For as bad as Tosin/Mangala may look on paper, we can't continue to play both John and Ota every 3 days. The PL is important and they need a rest.

If Mendy and Kompany were fit, we could literally put out another 11 that would be in a title race.

We should be winning this comfortably.

Injuries to Kompany and Mendy haven't helped. I don't think we enter any competition to bow out of It, but if we were to pick one this would be it and 11 changes is absolutely the right thing to do.

 

[Odd socks]

Only downside in rotation is if we slip up and the rags go on to win it, still think our cover players need the run out and Mangala might be needed sooner than a few of the youngsters, who knows he may have gained confidence under Pep, Delph has been a revelation and there were some who wanted to see him go not so long ago

Do you really want to see 11 changes?

I was thinking that players like Aguero and Bernardo needed games. Delph also could play in midfield and maybe play Zinchenko at left back.

We need to keep winning and we can play a much-changed team and still win, but 11 changes from Saturday would be too much. I hope that that is just mind games.
