So we are basically going out with the white flag waving. That’s not football and it’s not good enough for a club like ours. Would rather go out and fight to try and win than admit defeat before the whistle is blown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlo knows if he set us up like normal we could potentially go out there and suffer a humiliating loss.

Or maybe we are going out to hold and frustrate them to start with then introduce James and Bernard when the time is right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btay Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 Holgate needs to up his game here. Looks like we’re trying to keep it tight and just hope for something on the break. Could be a game where they dominate on the ball and we just look threatening from set pieces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuffRob Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 I my head i had Digne in midfield as well. He can defend and no doubting he can produce quality balls in to the box. Pretty similar to line up I would have put out. Cant have both gyfi and James in a team against city, and Gyfi a bit more robust than James when we dont have the ball, which will be most of the time. Coin toss between richy and king to lead the line. Coyb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will defend at a six when we haven't got the ball to be honest, Digne as a LB and Iwobi on the opposite side - if we press them high I think we'll be picked apart. Glad that Pickford is back too, Olsen has done OK in the previous games think Jordan is that bit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo 2.0 Posted February 17, 2021 Report Share Posted February 17, 2021 City are strangely sloppy in the opening few minutes, they've lost possession twice and Laporte has just swung the air when trying to clear. chicagoblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
