Yep. Need to keep some consistency to maintain the fluidity. Mass changes will disrupt the team too much.

Tough one though.

opinions vary.
for instance, in respect to the most controversial of those picks, I think Zinchencho would be spurred, rather than pissed, at being offered an opportunity on the slightly different role of wing-back. contrary to what happened with Leroy.

am talking as such, having also in mind the meaning of a recent brilliant post by Piccs.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...

I know it's a bit shit to say it but I'd give this cup a bye. We don't need two extra games in January and another in March.

Tosin in for Otter, Delph for Fernandinho, Gundogan for de Bruyne and Sane for Dave Silva. I think Bravo will play as well. A rest for some of the older lads and match practice for those who need it. I'd have them on the bench though, with a couple of kids.

We need a strong XI. I don't think we should turn our noses up at any competition as this stage.

I want to win and I also want kids blooded. Common sense says you need to be picky to do both. Give the best one or two a start and another one or two on the bench. Give first team players that haven't started a start like Sterling and sane and keep the likes of aguero on bench if needed.
Tracking back is overrated.

It would be nice to do both but winning matters much more.

We need to go for it. We should put out a strong team with a few of the less experienced integrated. would have to imagine that Tosin and Foden at least will start. They must start really.

Thankfully my Dutch broadcaster has had the decency to pick our game rather than the rags on Wednesday. I don't know how to create streams, though, so I can't help you out on that account.

Guessing Peps team for tomorrow is a real snorter. Despite all the excellent reasons for blooding the youngsters I'm persuaded by his alleged remark that he's "taking it seriously" so I reckon it'll be a case of game time for the squaddies
----------------Bravo
Danilo; Tosin ; Mangala; Mendy
---------------Delph
Bernardo; Foden; Gundogan ; Sané
--------------Jesus
Bench: Ederson; Walker; Stones; Diaz; KDB; Sterling; Aguero

Palace on Saturday is far far more important than this low key affair tonight . Rest our key players no need for stupid injuries or burn out we have a very long exciting season ahead . Anyways West Brom will put a reserve team out .

Am persuaded too. that's why I said I'd be probably disappointed when lineup are announced.

I also said opinions vary by means that Im not arguing at all to the point that, at least for now, we should go for it pretty strongly.
Still, under the tenure of far less stable managers we all have moaned/pitied about pressure not allowing 'em to give some real blooding to our youth. only to see Denis Suarez gettin a dozen starts at barca.

point being, we have so much strenght in depth, let it loose a proper bit. it's not arragonce nor disregarding at all, imho.

@ Slim: Im too ignorant to know what the reddit thingy is, so pls, pls in case get me copied. my few usual river are in total draught.

1. "unintelligible language"
2. "ACID QUEEN"
3. "never once fails to turn a football thread into a himseelf thread"
4. "thumbs stalker often resulting in repetitive thumb strain"
5. ignore the cunt. he's on permantent wum mission. only TIDs may know City

You'd need to make a very good psychiatrist in order to guess what next in a eight yrs long line of hatred...

I miss the days when we had the match relayed on (iirc) Vine.

So what does Reddit mean? How do we access it? How do we find steams on there? Ditto for Vine.

WBA u21s are playing tonight in the EFL Trophy. Don't know what that means for their team selection tomorrow, if anything.
