Trippier is suicide against City. That has been learned already this season.

Trippier and Davies are in great form but Aurier and Rose are better fullbacks.

TBF Aurier has had his fair share of poor games. Tripper has proven solid against most if not all the other top opponents we played this season.

Its not like Sane doesn't make pacy full backs look shit too.

Saying that I can see the case for Aurier - wouldn't be suicide either way IMO

Pool have set the template. Press the living shit out of them and stop the supply line. We tried it at the etihad but couldn't maintain it. We are more than capable of beating them into submission and people should stop fretting about who is fit for them and who isn't. We play the same regardless of who they put out.

Lamela has to play though imo.

More than anything, I want us to finish above the Dippers. I want us to finish 2nd. So it's important if that is our aim. Which it should be.
Nope it is an important game because there are not many home games left this season and our fans deserve to see us win at home. In fact there are not that many games at all left so we need to win them all to fight for 2nd or Third. But realistically we loose this we are looking at fighting for second and it would still be tough. Liverpool having CL distraction might go for us we’ll see! But I think a draw is a decent result and keeps us in the hunt for second. Can’t see Liverpool loosing at home to bornmouth!
I actually don't care too much about whether we finish 2nd, 3rd or 4th. Call me defeatist, call me small-minded, but to me, if we are not going to win the league anyway, which we are not this season, then securing CL and surpassing Arsenal AND Chelsea is enough for me. I'm good with that.

Agree with this and 100% agree Lamela has to start. Still think Son will start instead of him though. Hope I'm wrong.

Agreed! But would be nice for Poch and the lads to avoid the early qualifying rounds especially in a World Cup year! Don’t want them all knackered come game one next year?

As is no Fernandinho

I'd like to think so but the stats don't back it up. They've won each of the 5 games they've played without Fernandinho in English football this season. Small sample though so let's hope it's just statistical static.

Ok I’m confused which thread do we use?
For you..... The other one :sneaky::cautious:

Maybe we should have 2.... One for all the moaners, and then the others get a thread there they don't lose their heads ( probably would end up about 5 users) :LOL:
