[Mase]

no dias, doku or haaland tonight

Dias need to recover from being so shite recently? Or his new bird won’t let him play?

[Mase]

Nunes starting. Fuck it, will play on my Switch instead.

[nottsblue]

Not confident at all tonight

Think another draw is on the cards

[PeterParker]

Are we one up yet?

COME ON CITY

[PaulieIrish]

Best of how we have available. Should be good enough to get the job one. Delighted Rodders is fit.

Hideous bench

[sheblue]

A big game for Nunes, this time against decent opposition, not a pub team.

[blues2win]

Dias ill apparently. No Haaland and Doku even on the bench. A relief that Rodri starts. Sometimes players are over optimistic about their fitness. I don’t expect Kevin to have any minutes till the FA Cup on January 6. This is a big test.

Hideous bench

Absolutely stinks that bench, doesn’t it. Let’s hope we don’t need anyone to come on and change the game!

Should have started lewis hamilton instead of him being on the bench. Fast out of the blocks is that b*gger.

Come on Mase, give the kids a chance

Nunes starting. Fuck it, will play on my Switch instead.

It's not great form to be down on players before a game, but it has to be said. For me, I expect this game to show people that Nunes is a million miles away from being City level. I've seen fuck all from him thus far, other than shrinking horribly at Wolves because of the booing. Showed zero character. I'd love to be wrong, but he was a panic buy. Not a good player at all.

I was on about the fact Carson isn’t on there. We need a hero

[blues2win]

Pep says Haaland much better but hasn’t trained with the squad, can perhaps come back at the beginning of January. So out for the Sheffield United game. Kevin has been training hard but ‘a bit fatigued today’. I would have been amazed if he’d been available todnight.

[Beefymcfc]

Come on the Blues!

[nottsblue]

Come on BLUE BOYS

[Beefymcfc]

A decent, balanced line-up. Anybody know why Dias isn’t in the squad?

[Beefymcfc]

Who the fuck is booing the handshake, or is it the PL anthem?
