Mazzy Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Their defensive unit is going to look alot different from the one that won them so many games last season. Some combination of Walker, Akanji, Gvardiol and Ake. Obviously still an extraordinary defence but definitely not their best. And hopefully because of these defensive changes their build up play and structure in transition could be affected. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufc123 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Four(?) key players out and still its a nightmare to face these , but we look in shape and going strong. Big test to show who we are. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 De Bruyne as well? Still expecting a beating but seems to be a good time to play them at their place, very little pressure. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazzy Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Haaland is inevitable though. They could play their reserves with Haaland up top and he'd still get himself on the scoresheet. Undoubtedly the best time to be playing them but still a harder game than 90% of games we'll play this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theregulars Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Don't fall for it; they'll still put out the best footballing 11 in the UK this weekend. There's a reason they've invested so heavily in a squad. Still an incredibly challenging task and anything we get should be applauded vigorously.

SUPERTOON Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I’d be tempted to start Barnes. No slight on Gordon or Miggy who where great last week but we need to clinical if we get any chances and I’d back Barnes over them to take a chance.
