WOW..... Phil gets a start! And Fernandinho is back

Worried

Prefer to see Bernado over KDB, but game management will be critical to the success we get. Can see why this is the team tonight.

And to be perfectly blunt, if we can't beat Cardiff at home with this team, something is awry

Why?, that's a good squad.

We can’t flog the same players time after time. Aguero out anyway. Surely good enough to beat Cardiff provided the attitude is spot on.

Concerned about Mahrez and Jesus in attack.

Foden first league start I think.
Mendy not even on bench.

About time Silva was dropped/rested...hes been shite for ages now.

Come on '' ONE OF OUR OWN'' Foden.

Wow. Foden gets His first PL start.
Too bad it's not SJS up front.

Perhaps a Pep curve ball and Mahrez playing on the left for once......

I get that we need to rest players but without Sergio, he's rested our 2 other current form players in raheem and Bernardo.

It's going to be an interesting night.....

Mahrez shite
Kev not at it yet
Foden unsure if he’s a starter atm
Sane ummm could be ok
Jesus isn’t kun class

40/1 Cardiff this morning now 28/1 after team announced

It's a good team. I don't regard Foden as "giving the kids a try". He's a good player who will play well.

Sweet holy fuck will you all stop being so positive.

COME ON CITY

We need to start putting our shots in the net, instead of over the bar

Wonder what odds of the refs giving Cardiff some dodgy calls to even out the bad ones the got against Chelsea

time for a pint and come on blues

Are we one up yet?

TSN1 for me Jim Proudfoot and Andy Townsend, gotta be better than whoever sky will have on
