Glad to see Pellistri back too. He's a touchline hugging winger with a lot of pace. Hope he features in some games soon.
Old Man Flo is trying too hard. Just wait for UEFA to start the CL Knockout games in other countries, m9.
By n8 dogg Go To PostCasemiro continuing to be benched for McTominator is so goodlife is pain?
By Cleff Go To PostGundogan to hold the fort as the lone central midfielder seems risky. De Bruyne and Bernardo are capable of shifting to a more defensive role when needed, but if they lose the ball higher up the pitch they're in big trouble.They're also capable of rotating possession and passing us to death.
By Dan Go To PostFOGODDDDMe. Cause he's a fraud for England.
Who here was speaking disrespectfully about him a few weeks ago?
This is like our game against Liverpool. Except City will convert their early dominance into multiple goals.
Seeing the issue of having McTominay play as the deepest lying midfielder. Defenders passing along the backline with zero attempts made at a penetrating pass to midfield because Scott doesn't want the ball.
Some half decent pressing and counterattacking from us. Akanji and Ake are good recovery tacklers but seem a bit dodgy at the actual defensive reading of the game. We could get some joy from that if we can win possession back early.
But City's ball rotations are utterly killing us. They'll score again soon.
