Think Bruce has already said Gayle starts. He needs to be played through the middle then, not on the wing. He's not the best, but he can score goals if he's allowed to play as an out and out striker. He doesn’t score goals in the PL though. 26 in 127 appearances for someone who offers nothing if he’s not scoring is horrendous.

Maybe it’s because he’s not fit, but honestly feel as though City have been better without KdB this season.

I refuse to believe Gayle gets to start again after his last performance so it’s him out, surely?

Same. Obviously he’d be awesome in any team but be couldn’t be more perfect for City really. Desperate to see Messi play live before he retires too.

Gayle in 63 minutes 16 touches 8 passes attempted 6 passes completed 1 shot 0 tackles attempted 0 interceptions

This is a genuine 0/10 performance from Carroll.

Carroll just looks like a competition winner these days. So amateur.

Carroll coming on ffs

Love how they’ve been overloading both our flanks all game and we’ve done literally nothing to counter it.

Werner seems like a dick.

Gayle clearly has no idea what he’s supposed to be doing at all.

Are there any decent co-commentators at all?

Lewis is truly terrible.

I think it was the right decision to swap Gayle in for Wilson, but fuck me he’s not done himself any favours in that half. Totally anonymous defensively and offensively with no movement whatsoever.

Krafth is s***, but he’s being asked to mark two players all the time. There’s no protection from Willock/Gayle.

West Ham in the CL next season?

Love a perfect connection on a header. Bang.

Weird game. If Meslier played up to his usual standards then it’s 0-0. Leeds have been sluggish though.

Wonder who KdB comes back in for. Can’t take Gundogan out of the team atm so it’ll probably be Bernardo unless they just stick KdB up top. They could play Bernardo wide but it would be a shame if Pep took Foden out of the team again.

Probably get Villas-Boas instead coz Portugal.

Aye, really quite boring to watch an’ all despite having some outstanding individual players.

Would be absolutely fuming if I were a Wolves fan, like. Nothing going to happen for them in the league at all this season, so why field a weakened side in the FA Cup 5th round? Not sure Nuno will make it past this season tbh.

Schar’s injured. Playing out from the back with Lascelles/Clark/Dummett won’t be happening

I can't see it tbh. There's nobody to hold onto the ball or play off. Not that Joelinton/Gayle/Carroll are particularly useful options either, mind .

It's looking like 30 points will probably be enough to stay up. Think we'll manage 5 more tbh.
