Yeah but he just seens more inevitable now. I don’t really see him having a game off like in his first year and he’s more talismanic rather than Alvarez, Foden and KDB chipping in. If City score it’s gonna be him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benwell Lad Posted November 20, 2025 Share Posted November 20, 2025 Can there be such a thing as a nailed on draw ? Maybe when Germany play Austria once every few decades and they both need a point. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

andycap Posted November 21, 2025 Share Posted November 21, 2025 If Gordon comes straight back in in place of Barnes then something is seriously wrong in howes thinking. The keeper situation is delicate one as I do believe Ramsdale should get a chance to show his qualities at some point but pope has been good this season bar the odd game here and there.

Nepharite Posted November 21, 2025 Share Posted November 21, 2025 I really want a change in formation from Eddie for this one. I’m guessing if he does he’ll go 352, but I’d prefer a 4231 to get people in and around Big Nick. Ditch the wingers positions and get them inverted in behind him.

We're at home, under the lights and despite our terrible away form, we look better on our own turf against "bigger" clubs. Haaland is in excellent form, but City don't look particularly convincing, losing at Villa and Brighton, while they were fortunate to escape from Brentford with all three points. We'll definitely give them a game and are more than capable of getting something if we apply ourselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only needs a slight tweak, a 4-2-3-1. 2 in Bruno / Tonali are naturally deeper and Ramsey ahead of them to play closer to Wolte. Our issue in these games is likes of Foden who take up space behind our flat midfield three, and are easily found and they’re running at our defence. Hall and Trippier at full backs, with Thaiw / Botman at CB, there should be no excuses for not retaining possession. If we’re looking shit with the ball tomorrow, then people need to start to worry. Argument that Barnes / Murphy should be starting wingers, but these are games Gordon lives for currently, and Elanga pace against this Man City backline has to be utilised. GK situation it would be interesting to see Ramsdale, because Man City press if it’s not spot on can work for us with Ramsdale finding our skilled players feet, rather then going long where it’s an instant turnover.

Barnes is a fantastic finisher no doubt, but just like Gordon playing “centrally” doesn’t suit him. Unless they have been working on it of course.

Not sure, Barnes scored a great goal at Brentford but went missing pretty much the whole match and doesn’t really offer any outlet. Gordon has been poor bar Benfica but on his day is streets ahead.

Nah I'm not having that like Barnes was our best player arguably against Brentford scored a class goal with a bit of quality that Gordon has never achieved.
