Pep is heartless man. I like it

The state of that man

Dubravka has the most touches on the team so far

‘Hit the big man’

The answer to every rotten team's problems

Bruce praise again and mentions of Pardew. Please make them stop.

We're so bad it's rubbing off on Foden.

Pep approaching this like a pre-season friendly for fitness, with the changes at half time.

City are not even that good at the back this season, conceded a good amount of goals for the shots they've faced

This is the thing, and they've started their most vulnerable pairing at the back today.

We're so slow with our passing thinking we can pop it sideways and backwards and take our time with the ball, but Man City just press aggressively once we start doing that, and we have just continued to do it anyway and then give the ball away in very dangerous areas.

The way players are skipping past Schar has been outrageous!

Shelvey man

This isn't the game for him

Way too much movement and speed  take him off and let the man rest this one out.

They're literally walking through our players' challenges

This is pitiful man

I like Lazaro.

You can't pass the ball backwards all the time against Man City man it just invites their press high up the pitch.

They still keep playing it sideways and backwards continuously. Causing all types of problems.

This is amazing

Really enjoying it actually

This is our future with no takeover once ASM is sold.

Apparently Bruce has made us all forget about Rafa 

Shelvey is at number 10 with Schar and Bentaleb in midfield it seems. Fair play Bruce.

Likely get smashed anyway but at least it won't be tedious.

Lallana has been playing in a deeper role lately, no?

Yeah, but he still plays in wide positions too, and besides he won't be stuck out on the wing, but will drift from there.

Is this 5 defenders and 11 men sitting in our box again?! If so, why?

 

It's a nothing game man. Just play the 4-2-3-1 formation coward.

 

It's not a nothing game for Bruce, he's desperate to beat Rafa's points total, can't risk a single point when there's so much at stake

He's so dumb man

They'll just be camped in our half all game and beat us anyway, especially with no Almiron or ASM to attempt to try and even dribble the ball up the pitch.

This is going to be such a farce man.

It's a nothing game man. Just play the 4-2-3-1 formation coward.

I imagine Lallana will slot in on the right with freedom to roam from there as Pereira overlaps really well down that side and provides the width. Barnes will stay on the left and Maddison through the middle.

Good move for him and a really good fit for them too. Nice pickup.

Eddie Nketiah straight on and straight off ...

18 year old and plays so intelligently and with such perfect technique. I'd saying he's going to be some player but he's already there. What a talent.

 

If Nigeria had a half decent football association that could convince these guys to play for the national team we would have some real promise.

 

Abraham, Ihenacho, Saka and Iwobi would be a nice young front line. Oh well ...

 

Iwobis shit.

You are so dumb and cringeworthy man. Shut up.
