He's probably hoping Burnley don't have anybody quick like Rashford. More traditional great lump centre forward


Kompany was dodgy as fuck last time out - he’s great for so many minutes but then there’s a fuck up in him that invariably costs us a goal .

I would have gone for Otto as he’s
Much better in the air than Kompany is and Burnley will only score from a set piece , IMO .

Quick like Rashford , as in "Quick to stick leg into the defender and fall over getting the defender booked at the same time" like Rashford ?

I'm not a big fan. But Kompany looked a right cunt playing against him the other night

Vinnie to bring the leadership and passion.

More worried about this game than any for the past couple of months. Hopefully we can jag something early and disrupt their plans.

Switched these anti City commentators off and put Latin Commentary on.....at least I will now hear an unbiased reaction throughout the match.

I wouldn’t have David Silva in today myself. But a very strong line up it must be said. Sane needs to be on it from the off. I’ve noticed when he starts indifferently he tends to stay that way

Kompany aimless header #1. I expect double digits.

I think 2 away games in quick succession could be too much. I would actually have gone all out with Jesus up front with Aguero, with Bernado floating behind them

I fancy us today - Burnley just playing for league position rather than survival. I hope we stuff them.

He played really well last time out and is perfect in this type of game.
