I’ll have one for u Mike don’t worry

I’m never a fan of five at the back but I think especially without gana we would have got overun in the middle of the park. Sane and mahrez will be the danger bug the extra centre half will allow the full backs to get tighter with the insurance to cover. Just the worry is if we do get a chance DCL isn’t the most clinical

Had 1-1 Mina anytime 100/1

Deffo looking to unsettle the two smallish centre haves with DCL and Charly

Could be 3-4-3 or 5-2-3 or 5-1-3-1 or..........

Probably cos gana injured

Had a feeling he was playing 5 at the back

If we just had a top striker that’s a top four challenging team

If gana doesn’t play I’d move sigi deeper alongside Gomes. Gilfi still covers plenty of ground in that role . Pickford coleman Keane. Mina. Digne Gilfi. Man crush Lookman Bernard. Charly DCL

I don’t really watch much foreign football so I’ve no idea really on what’s about striker wise. I would like someone rapid who can turn defends into attack in one ball

That right back at palace is supposed to be good. Get him scouted and if he looks the real deal get the deal done in January and keep him there till summer

I was joking about the house prices, he’s been talking again on sky sports and from what he implies to me he wants to stay and is hoping the club can afford him. Barca are always looking for a big name signing, Suarez is getting on now so selling a relatively low name player for £40 million must appeal to go towards a superstar

I think we could get something today. We need luck, I watched the Chelsea game and once city went a goal down their heads dropped big time. All depends on Aguero I guess

Fancy Mina to score today. City are a small team so we should be putting balls into the box non stop. Saying that are delivery has been woeful from set pieces recently. Sane is the danger man today

Looking forward to aqua man

I can’t say it’s loyalty as he’s only been here for twelve games or so. Spurs could offer a lot, new ground, London. But spurs don’t pay huge huge wages and you get more house for your money on Merseyside. I think he will loads of high profile clubs in for him including city

Aguero and de Bruyne could be back tommorow. I just want us to have a go at them. If you sit back they will pick you apart so we just have to go for it. Probably the same team as usual, would be fun to see if we played two up front. Either Charly off Cenk or DCL or Bernard playing off Charly would be interesting

Talk of Tottenham scouts at the game Monday. Replacement for dembele

Surprise surprise the telegraph are reporting spurs scouts were watching Gomes on Monday. Definite replacement for dembele. Get it done marcel

City might play with no recognised number nine so all there play will go through their midfield. D Silva not playing is huge so they will rely on sane and and sterling for their pace and to play one twos around the box. Is there a case for flooding the middle of the park? I’m not advocating it but a line up like this might keep it tight for the first sixty minutes. Pickford Keane Zouma Mina coleman Gilfi gana Gomes Digne Bernard Richarlison if we are still in the game we could revert back to 4-3-3 and with so many defenders on the pitch allows us to have plenty of attacking options on the bench. If fat Sam would have played a formation like this we wouldn’t have got out of our half but I think Marco has the players working tremendously hard off the ball and it would give us plenty of chance to counter attack

Love him!!!

David silva will be out which is a huge bonus

If we sign Gomes we still need 3 or 4 first teamers. RB, CM, CF and maybe a winger. I’d try Bernard on the right Charly on left

City then Tottenham. I’m going on Saturday. Wish I wasn’t now

£40 down the drain on us today
