  1. SUBS | Ortega Moreno, Carson, Ake, Kovacic, Doku, De Bruyne, Gomez, Nunes, Lewis

  8. going be alvarez and akanji tucking in midfield again isn’t it

  10. He’s forcing this Alvarez Akanji Midfield. Sub 65th min KDB and then we’ll actually start playing. Stop forcing this shit man ffs.

  11. We ARE fucked again. Pep how TF did you watch last game and think Ake was the problem? Does akanji have your daughter hostage? How is akanji and stones playing together not going to cause issues taking up similar positions. Maybe I’ll eat my words after 15 mins but this is not inspiring. 

  12. Akanji as LB? Ake did so well last game, felt like he should start over Akanji this time so that Stones can do CDM. Slightly confused over this lineup.

  17. Juli, Walker and Doku masterclass today to shut us up hopefully

  18. Yeah Bobb starting is a good decision
    that norwegian lad has the skill
    looking forward to a sweet win

  19. Biggest surprises for me are Ake on the bench and Alvarez starting.

    Ake has been regularly digging us out as of late, covering for Walker, Dias, and Akanji being off the pace, so I can only hope Stones can fill that role tonight.

    And nothing has really been coming off for Alvarez since his brace against Burnley, which I just put down to him being overplayed.

    But I certainly don’t claim to know more than Pep and hope the Argentine puts in another mini-Kev performance, assisting a Haaland hat trick (to quiet his trolls and a few misguided blues calling for him to be dropped).

    Also looking forward to seeing Bobb get a good run out. He has been solid-to-excellent each time he has appeared this season and I hope he gives Pep another selection headache for the weekend.
