Will be interesting to see how we play if Brighton put everyone behind the ball.

I was only joking mate.

My direct source Barry the Squirrel at Belvoir Drive called me up and told me Claude had Eurostar'd back on Sunday morning to check on his Brie & Wine business - Plonk al Puel & la crèmearie le Pew.

I was joking too. Don't think you got it so I guess it wasn't funny after all.

 

Who cares. All that's important is the game tonight and we'll all be singing from the same songsheet there.

 

Up the City!!

We will win and show great character. The spirit of The Brodge is within us.

Until they don't like him at least

I don’t think he takes a lot of shite tbh. He may be a funny looking sausage but I believe he has a bit of a mean streak about him. I’m convinced they’ll either play his way or they’ll be gone.

Anyone who can basically end Steve Gerard’s Liverpool career ain’t gonna bother with a mardy Vardy!

No I got what you were saying. Just when ITK's are usually called up on something it's a mate of a mate's dog from down the Lat who whispered in their ear when they were scooping their mess off their lawn. "I just say what I'm told", "look that one thing I said turned out to be true, it was nearly true on the other 2 dozen things over the same time period, it just didnt happen!".

Odds on Simpson and Wes playing?

I dont think so, the only way i could see if maybe Simpson played is if they push Pereira up front..

 

But you was only joking.. wasnt you, WASNT YOU  

[jim5000]

Really hope Stowell doesn't return to type and bring back Morgan and Simpson etc., or revert to 4-4-2.

 

The team Puel was picking was more or less the correct team, and the formation fit the players available. Rodgers is likely to carry on with the same team and system, just hopefully coach them how to play to their strengths and take chances a bit better!

 

It would be completely pointless to bring in the old guard and go 4-4-2 for a one off game when the system isn't going to be continued and hasn't been drilled.

 

It should be the same team as Palace, just ditch Ghezzal for Gray. And Chillwell back in, obviously

[fazzyfox]

I saw Simpson & Morgan on the TV footage around the tunnel, presume both are subs. Main question mark is on that right wing, surely Gray over Ghezzal? First goal all important, imagine being ahead, ahead, in the lead, with the game in our control....nice thought. Resiliant Brighton but eventually 2-0 City. Or 0-0.

Quite certain to see Morgan back in the starting XI. No way Simspon starts though. It's Brighton and we're at home. Stowell is only here for one game after all.

[foxfanazer]

Superb lineup

[lgfualol]

Glad Puel isnt around he would have picked the same lineup that failed on Saturday

[fazzyfox]

Shame we can't squeeze Choudhury('s hair) onto the bench but it's a balanced bench to cover all eventualities, so fair enough.

[Mehrez]

New manager, best squad. Don’t know what to do with myself
