Mickyblueeyes Posted 5 March 2021 Share Posted 5 March 2021 Back to feeling excited about this. I think having Fofana starting and us playing a four rather then 3cbs really adds more to our attacking play. Come on boys. Slight bump on the road v Arsenal. First of two wins tomorrow to get us back on track. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

peach0000 Posted 5 March 2021 Share Posted 5 March 2021 The more I think about this game the more confident I'm getting. As long as we go with a back four we'll win comfortably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwiturk Posted 6 March 2021 Share Posted 6 March 2021 Bless the Sharky, he is a workhorse and doing his best on the left wing but still looks awkward time to time. How about pulling him to the right combining him with the Ricardo and reversing actual left footed Under to the left wing, combining with the Castagne? I think those two smashing combination may end Vardy's epic goal draught!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this feeling like a pivotal game in out season win and it give us momentum going in to the Sheffield U game which would probably see us win that too. 6 points would be massive, but 4 wouldn't be a disaster. So what you're saying is it's a must win game then 🤣🤣 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post FellowBlue Posted 6 March 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 6 March 2021 Hello fellow blues. Man City fan here just wishing your team good luck for your game against Brighton. I really think you are the best of the pack chasing our team and deserve to qualify for the Champions League. Last year, I remember your form dropped off and United took your top four spot and I was gutted. This year, I’ve said for months that United are in a false position and hopefully their luck with VAR decisions and penalties has run out. We will hopefully batter the living daylights out of them on Sunday and do you a favour. The ref (Taylor) is a big question mark though. A supposed Altrincham fan who apparently has family members who are United season ticket holders. Yeah, right. He has a record of awarding penalties for “the rags” as we affectionally call them. So we will see what plays out, and hopefully you are in second place at the end of the weekend. 22 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col city fan Posted 6 March 2021 Share Posted 6 March 2021 Just as long as Amartey and Choudry aren’t starting, then pick any of the others in pretty much any attacking formation Personally I’d love to see us have a go at Brighton. They aren’t a good team 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crazy Kop Corner Posted 6 March 2021 Share Posted 6 March 2021 Up early and buzzing for this one. I'd go with Schmeichel Ricardo Fofana Soyuncu Castagne Wilf Youri Under Albrighton Kelechi Vardy It won't happen but playing Amarty, Hamza etc we're instantly carrying them COYB - New lucky Vichai Shirt following Wednesday Nights draw already on 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF the above players are all fit enough to play, I can't see why you wouldn't. If there's any more 3 at the back, including our best midfielder, or 8 defensive minded players in an ultra cautious approach to such an opponent, then surely some questions need to be asked about such a negative approach. Personally I don't think Rodgers will employ such a cautious approach but wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't tweaked it somehow to ensure the usual cautious first half. Then cue the miracle substitutions. Teams with top 4 ambitions should, with the players we have available to us, play with ambition against such opposition. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a win take the pressure off a little, lose or draw and the pressure cranks up for the home game against Sheff U Edited 6 March 2021 by coolhandfox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted 6 March 2021 Share Posted 6 March 2021 Just now, reynard said: Will Fofana be fit enough to play the whole game? I suspect not. I reckon he will start and do at least 60 mins and if we are up by a couple will get subbed off for Amartey or Evans whichever is fit and not starting already. Otherwise it wouldn't surprise me if he played the full 90. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They aren’t a good team Thing is though, all the stats point to the fact that they are actually quite a good team, they're just wasteful to the point of hilarity. I'm praying the ever obliging Leicester City don't turn up to tonight and Brighton don't cash in on all their expected goals. This is a few games old now but gets the point across.

Popular Post Stonegold Posted 6 March 2021 Popular Post Share Posted 6 March 2021 If there happened to be a betting company called Unlucky , then Brighton would be their choice of team to sponsor . In all my years of watching football I can't recall anything like what I've seen this season watching us play like Brazil up to the penalty area then turn into a pub team in front of goal . Yes we've had some rotten luck but also been very poor at times , trying to be too clever , walking the ball into the net , when a simple thump on target would have done . No Lamptey, Webster , again is a big miss but Veltman has been a more than capable replacement for Lamptey and Burn once again will try and do his bit up and down the wing . Taking the midweek results into account a point would be ok for us , not so much for Liecster I suppose . 1-1 would be my guess with Dunk a likely goalscorer as he is the only player we have left that can score a penalty if required 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
