Laporte starting for City

Mint comeback for them that like.

Never understood the whole basking in misery & negativity in attempt to save yourself from disappointing thing like. Unless it's to have the small, empty victory of a 'I told you so' come the end of the season. Weird tbh. That's exactly what it is. Crack on then I guess, each to their own and all that.

None. Played: 6 Drawn: 3 Lost: 3

Sign him up as Rafa's first team coach.

Such a confusing, inconsistent string of moves. Was he actually good at one point and has faded or was he always operating at a level above his capabilities at the likes of Spurs, Soton & Liverpool? Just realised he has 1 England cap too and actually scored on it too https://www.theguardian.com/football/2017/jun/29/steven-caulker-mental-illness-addictions-gambling-drinking-qpr I didn't know that. I can empathise with him on some of the issues there. The Dundee move actually becomes admirable in this light.

Aye basically like.

Fair enough

Jesus Christ, man. Give owa man Cannit have a good word said about Mitrovic without popping up yee.

Great player. Hope he starts v Man U.

Still just 27 mind, he is absolutely fucking class when fit. Hope he has better luck at Guingamp would love to see him playing again.

Used to drive me mad that He could be 45 yards from goal yet there was always someone around me in the Gallowgate who just couldn't help themselves

Aye, Mitrovic is obviously more talented than Shola ever was, as much as I love the guy.

95% sure Murphy will be playing on the right having seen a few things from training. May be reading into it a bit much at the same time however.

Disagree, I think Atsu has got better here. He's a more capable and well-rounded player this season for us than he was last season. I think you may be basing much of your opinion on his current form - which is unfair.

Again I'd go with Darlow, he's done little to warrant dropping him recently. I think he's also important to our back line with him and Jamaal being so close off the pitch, they probably put each other at ease a bit on the pitch and in a game of fine margins it might be the difference. Darlow has also been great at coming off his line to collect crosses recently of which there'll be plenty.

I can see why Shelvey would be dropped for this one given we're not likely to see much of the ball (on paper at least). However, if Man Utd were to sit off and play on the counter, he would be vital to us getting something out of the game imo. A genuine tactical duel between the managers, this one I reckon. Can see a score draw, crowd should be up for it and less vocal in their frustration too.

My favourite thing about him. He's not phased at all by operating in tight spaces either, such a calming influence to have in the side.

...better than losing them atleast, although we need to start getting 3 on occasion for sure.

They're al from Surrey man

Sane? Mane surely?

What I really liked about him today is that he never seemed rushed into a pass, he always seemed to wait until the best pass became available. There was times where the long diagonal tempted him, but he paused, assessed play and usually played the short ball to one of the full backs. A really mature display from him.

He was our best player today I thought. I mean I know he wasn't very involved in the second half, but in that first he dictated the game tbh. I love to see that sort of display from him, consistency is getting there but he still needs to up the effort on that front just a touch. All in all really pleased though.
