  1. Thank god Eddie is back. We needed his distribution against teams that presses like Madrid.

  2. Ouch, no Stonesy. Hopefully Dias and Akanji is up for it today!

  3. KDB Foden Bernardo with Grealish controlling the tempo. Get in

  4. I like this. Kovacic played really well in the first leg but KDB is king.

  5. Fuck…..

    Walker MUST stay back on Vini at all times… and I’d actually like to see the same for Akanji on Rodrygo. Dias can stay on Jude. Let Josko push up on the left for the extra body. Rodri will be isolated again unless its Bernardo hanging back with him.

    Was bricking it before… feeling so so so nervous now.

  6. Very surprised Stones is out. Akanji has been our best defender and Dias has been suspect at times.
    Either way, in pep we trust.

  7. besides stones missing, perfect lineup based on who’s fit at the moment

  8. Madrid won’t know what slap them today 😁💪🩵

  9. Having walker back is more important than losing stones. There’s enough going forward that it shouldn’t be a problem. Having Kyle’s pace to neutralize Vini and Rodrygo is super important if we want to go through

  10. Like our odds boys! Let’s finish them!! COMONNNNN CITYYYY!!!

  11. I have faith in Akanji and Gvardiol today. Cmon city

  12. KDB & Foden shine the brightest when they are not playing with each other, hopefully that won’t be the case today.

  13. Only an idiot would genuinely think Akanji will play midfield this match

    More than likely pep wants him to help overload the middle while our fullbacks take care of all the pace attacking us through the wings.

  14. 98% fit Walker is probably enough to deal with pacey counters

  15. I feel like they deliberately chose Walker for the pic to unsettle Madrid

  16. the only thing I’m unsure about is ederson. not that I doubt him, I just feel sorry for Stef.

  17. Almost the same as last year except Foden for Gundogan no?

  18. No Stones or Kova maybe be an issue in slowing the tempo of the match down. Have to rely on Jack to slow it down.

  19. My guess is Stones is being saved in case Walker can’t make it the whole game

  20. 6am here in NZ. Might have to throw some booze into my coffee

  21. I hope Foden is on the wings. 😲. Rodri cant do it by himself. Hope Bernardo is beside him.

  22. The legend of second leg pep officially put to rest?

    Cmon city

  23. I’m feeling optimistic about this line-up. Let’s go City 💙🙏

  24. I was writing a longer comment, until I realized I was just praising the entire team haha. Near perfect squad, only missing Stones (though I can imagine why) but way more than good enough for the fixture.

    Particularly excited about Walker being in it, as to deny Vini Jr’s existence
