SUPERTOON

Decent game this.

We win this.

Barnes on the RW with Trippier at RB is a concern defensively.

Tino would do well against him imo. Obviously want Hall to be fit though.

Fancy us after seeing the lineup, shame about Hall, but Tino has played his best for us at LB.

Isak and Joelinton are there.

Every team is more of a challenge than us at the Etihad.

Aware we may not have much choice, but that front 3 would struggle big time for goals imo.

Guessing both have spent a lot more than us over the last 18 months though ? Don’t forget, the majority of our spend was necessary because of the state Ashley left the club in.

Worst in the clubs history is surely extreme ? It won’t be worse than relegation.

We both got promoted the same season, in that time we have beaten them twice. It’s correct to say we struggle against them.

Not improving the team (which wasn’t the strongest anyway) in nearly two years can’t be said enough tbh. With that in mind, he’s doing a fantastic job keeping us competitive. It’s not only that we haven’t strengthened, everyone else in that time has.

Can’t see us beating these, we haven’t played well for ages and always struggle against them.

Nonsense to suggest it was their easiest game of the season mind.

Based on what ?

Not sure what else people where expecting tonight tbh, we are a million miles away from these lot and missing our best player.

In fairness, no one can match up against Salah.

He never has.

Think his substitutions have always been a weak point of his management here. Not sure it would have mattered when he made them tonight mind.

Good job Wilson looked sharp coming on at the weekend.

He will be needed for Brighton mind.

His last one he was back the game after going off (palace away earlier in the season)

Back to 2 keepers on the bench

Any slim chance we had has pretty much gone then. Hopefully keep the score line respectable.

He’s starting
