As a rew predicted.
Not bad. Let’s hope we’re on song.

So Mahrez, Razzer and Sane all start, that's a first right? Let's hope Gabriel learns from this instead of sulking about it.

Think a lot of us expected Pep would play Raz up top and seems that's what's happening.

Very hard to drop either of the front three starting with Kun out in such a game.

Don't really know what Gab has to learn mate? He's working hard for the team. He's not missing chances on purpose.

Pleased with this side. Come on CITY

Chelski apparently playing hazard as false 9 and their fans are pissed off, also pissed that Willian is starting.

Only 5 years ago we had 4 quality strikers now with an injury and form issue we don’t have 1 to play

Not surprised by the front 3.
Although I did feel he would stick with Gabby but that's the best front right there at the moment.

Yes , i was a bit puzzled by the comment about Jesus. Like all others in the team, he has missed a fee chances recently, but he's working his ass off for the team, bless his little cotton socks.

Seem to remember us going through the Christmas period a few years back with no recognized striker and collecting full points.
Silva and a few others rotating constantly caused teams endless trouble.

If everyone steps up to the mark we’ll be fine.

Milner had to be thrown up there. But then he left....to win trophies.

We will need to up the performance from Tuesday night's efforts.

Can't shake a horrible feeling about this one

I thought he left to play Left Back.

All our wingers are good goal scorers.
Bernardo, KDB can get goals, and big Dave sticking in a few now. Even Gundo the boo boy chips in.
Not worried about it.

Off to the pub, Come on City!!!
