      Chris Silva Rudiger

Azpi  Kante  Jorginho  Alonso

   Ziyech Havertz Pulisic

Dont like wing backs options but it is what it is.

Alonso was game winner last time there and Azpi should focus on defense. 

[Laylabelle 9,376]

No reason can't get something from this if we can take chances cause they will take theirs. And can't switch off should we score first which seems to be a annoying thing lately.

another covid case

ffs

[Pizy 18,409]

Christensen out with COVID now. So it’s either we continue with a back 4 that includes Sarr or we play Azpi as the 3rd CB in a back 3.

Think I’d prefer the latter as Sarr looks a bit shaky on the ball when he’s pressed. And god knows City will press the shit out of him.

city has some player with covid?

[cosmicway 1,333]

Why so many players with covid ?
Are they all Jokovitch characters ?

[ZAPHOD2319 4,514]

With this new variant people have it and never show symptoms, especially vaccinated people. It probably just comes down to bad timing with the tests. The nice thing is so many vaxed people testing positive means the vaccine is doing its job against this. Even vaccinated you will still test positive if you come in contact, but your body just fights it off very well.

Catching Covid has nothing to do with vaccination.

Vaccinated or unvaccinated, you can catch covid. The former increases your chances of having no symptoms.

I'd be happy with a draw here, can't see us doing any better🤐

[LAM09 6,772]

I'm not expecting Tuchel to repeat what he did at the Bridge by essentially self-sabotaging. Hoping we give City a game, as they are susceptible to teams being direct. 

I think it will be a score draw which would probably be acceptable for both sides considering the situation, but it would be great to win away again.

 

[Tomo 21,733]

City are great but not unbeatable, we did it times in a row and even Solskjaer managed to pull off a 100% record at The Ethiad. 

My confidence or lack off in this game will come in the line-up more than any I can remember recently. As close to the same line-up we saw in Porto as possible and I'll have genuine belief we can get something out of this.
