***Champions v Newcastle Official Match Thread***

Knew hed play the underperformers

[PaulieIrish]

Unbelievable. Mahrez, Foden and Bernardo on the bench for a must-win, fuck-all-else-to-play for game. And Sterling and Grealish, who have been wank, both start.

If we fuck this up, this is on Pep. Newcastle went from 17/1 to 15/1 after teams announced. This shit matters.

Still think we will win tho...

It’s a complete piss take. We might end up winning this game but the risk in playing that front three isnt worth it.

All this talk of 4 cup finals - play your cup final team then!!!

[Harry Dowd scored]

No excuse for that line up just the league to play. Play your strongest team, that ain’t our strongest team, fucking Sterling arghhhhhh

Steffen?

[carl_feedthegoat]

I just don’t get it - I really don’t .

Sterling has been a total and utter waste of space and he’s included him in the fucking starting 11.

He’s never played in a final thankfully.

COME ON CITY

[Nigels Tackle]

XI | Ederson, Cancelo, Dias, Laporte, Zinchenko, Rodrigo, De Bruyne, Gundogan (C), Grealish, Sterling, Jesus

SUBS | Steffen, Ake, Bernardo, Fernandinho, Mahrez, Foden, Egan-Riley, Mbete, Palmer

that team has missed sitters written all over it

[blues2win]

Grealish and Sterling didn’t play anywhere near 120 minutes. Bernardo and Foden did. None of us can know how fresh they looked in training. They might well both play an important part. Plus a big match at Molineux looms midweek.

Its not worth the risk though. Even a 70% Bernardo and Foden are better than Sterling!

Nice with a voice of reason.

There is no justification playing Sterling no matter who’s fucking knackered .

Palmer should play instead of him - put Jesus in Sterling’s spot .

[sheblue]

There had to be changes after the game in mardid which was energy zapping.
I've no problem with the team apart from Sterling.
100% I would start Palmer ahead of him.
Grealish hasn't been as bad as the media make out. Ignore them cunts.

[Mase]

Sterling - Not scored in his last 9 games in all comps.

Brilliant.

Makes no sense when KDB is starting. It’s nothing to do with energy - Kev has looked knackered for a month

[Harry Dowd scored]

Come on City let’s win this

You might be right.
But we dont work with them day in day out.
Let's see.
