What Laporte and Rodri need to understand is that if the clever midfield pass is not on to put the ball back to our best midfielder , Ed .... and be patient.

If I could do a team talk this would be the key message. Add Kyle and cancelo (who is by far the worst at turning over possession by a distance).

Could be on the money there.
Especially if he goes 4-2-3-1 with Rodri and Gundo blocking the Dipper runners when they have the ball.

Pep could do anything. He has so many options.
I hope he does not overthink it.

We are a point ahead, at home, a better team, VVD has lost half a yard, Dipper defense gives up chances. No need to over think, pick a front six that will expose that defense. Prioritize pace or ball retention. Simple.

On the money with this. Control the tempo and the ball and we win

Gabe’s stupid yellow on Tuesday will have done him no favours with Pep. We saw how Walker has been since his stupid red, I can’t see Pep rewarding Jesus getting banned for the second leg with a start against Liverpool.

He’s very particular with stupid bookings.

Best he can hope for is a place on the bench. Pep quite rightly, takes a dim view on those bookings that cause us to miss players

We're "monotonous" and Liverpool have "the best defence".

So just completely ignore the facts and listen to this mumbling, stuttering wanker:

Exactly.
Talking the talk time is over, now it is walk the walk time. Let's see if the Dippers are as good as the media have been telling us. All I ask for is a level playing field and then best team wins.

Avoiding media now until I watch the game, to much Dipper BS.

Here is where the cash is going i.e. no BS

City. 1/1
Dippers. 12/5
Draw. 13/5

Hard cash is at odds with the media ;)

These online polls are completely pointless, everybody just votes for their team no matter what the topic of the poll.
There are millions of goons voting in these 'polls' who are completely clueless just following the masses.
Its like arguments on Twitter, complete waste of time.

Let's see the odds on Sunday night.
If we win we'll rightly be mad favourites. I don't even want to contemplate a loss.
A draw is better for us and we'd still be favourites but it'd be 18/19 all over again. Horrible squeaky bum time.

That's a good point Mase. But the other side of the coin is that he can ask him to go out there and totally run himself to the ground. He doesn't need to preserve any energy for Wednesday.

Yeah good point. I suppose it frees up someone else to be rested for Wednesday if Gabe does play.
