Robbo will need to be at his very best tonight against Sterling. He'll be out to show he should have started last week and he has been playing v well this season. If Robbo and Trent play as well as Trent did last week against Sane then we'll be fine
Why am I more nervous than if it was 0-0? The something to lose factor definetly kicking in... I'm petrified..
City XI | Ederson, Walker, Otamendi, Laporte, Fernandinho, De Bruyne, Silva (C), Sane, Sterling, Bernardo, G Jesus What way are they lining up? 3 at the back or Fernandinho lb? Aguero on bench
I agree with earlier post saying city won't come out at 100mph. That would be madness. They could score 3 in 20 mins.I expect it to be cagey enough early on. We need to be patient and be confident that one goal will do. By patient i don't mean sit back. When 1-0 up last week we had a free kick and VVD went up and i think maybe Lovern. City broke quickly and created the chance that Sane dragged wide. We were wide open. As klopp would say - not cool. Patience the key for us.
This is messing with my head even more now...going to watch it with a few Yanks and they think I'm crazy for being so nervous!
Happy Ageuro on bench, they needed all experience possible tonight. Handled Jesus well last week, same again tonight
Just got an awful feeling about this the other day and can't shake it lose... but appreciate what you are saying and given our firepower, would love to think your dead right mate.
Best news is that all our injury doubts are fit. Hopefully they all can last the amount of game time that is required of them . Hail Mary team selection from Pep.
I thought Ageuro would start, he has a an alright goal scoring record against. Ah well, get the job done Redmen!!!!
Depends . He may ask sane to go back and stick with salah . Same with sterling and Robbo and then break from there. Hard to see either being able to execute that role though.
Think pep is going all out for goals early .Going to leave them exposed , hopefully we are clinical Going to over load the wings than pack midfield
