Wilson. aSM I think ASM might be kept in reserve for the late equalizer. So I would go with the same defence and Wilson but with; Miggy Longstaff Bruno Joe in a workaholic midfield Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coffee_Johnny Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 (edited) 1-0 at half-time; joyous scenes and exceptional Madri sales ensue. 1-1 at 47 minutes (…palpitations en masse). 1-2 on the hour (… woe is us). 2-2 at 76 minutes . Last fifteen minutes of match causes more people to shit themselves to death than seen during the Sunderland cholera epidemic. Elation (and SIGNIFICANT re-hydration) at full time.

Andy84 Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Hate playing these. Pass you to death before usually cutting a simple ball across the box for a tap in. Although I think we’’ll be more competitive this time Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitley mag Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Botman to bully Haaland for 90 mins before powering home an injury time header for the winner. Absolute scenes at the final whistle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Is Grealish on the right or left for them atm? would expect Trips or Taggs (1980s WWF tag team right there) to give him a little tap for Miggy. Miggy will score the winner as well just for the lols, or maybe Grealish will to run it in Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happinesstan Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Can't wait for this. Got so many reasons to dread it, but some to remain hopeful. We've kind of struggled so far, particularly Brighton, and while I'm not saying we weren't prepared for Brighton it was an equal match, likely only ever to be won by something unusual or special. The City game we know, not what to expect as such, but what is expected of us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 I guess I’m excited because there’s nothing really on the line, a murder is par for the course. Just try to enjoy the day and hope the lads can conjure a miracle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

timeEd32 Posted August 17, 2022 Share Posted August 17, 2022 Not that they need any help, but it feels like every time we play them we get screwed somehow. Last season, Aguero offside, a disallowed goal (Ritchie maybe?) … sure I’m forgetting some. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted August 18, 2022 Share Posted August 18, 2022 I fancy a low scoring defeat here. Under Howe at home we've restricted the opposition to one goal or less on 13 occasions and I expect plenty of effort and application. Obviously if City turn it on, they could rip us a new one, but I fancy us to keep it respectable at the back. I wouldn't be entirely suprised to see us line up with a back five. The problem is that I just don't think we're good enough to hurt them. Similar to Liverpool last season we'll be looking at set pieces and the odd counter attack to score. Realistically we may have to score a couple to take a point from the game, but I just can't see it, 0-2 City. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange game, we conceded inside 25 seconds or something from our own kick off ( ) but never got mauled and always offered something in attack. More so than the game in the previous season due to Rondon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
