Pep can put out whatever team he wants tonight.

Looking forward to this one, have to admit until the events of this week, I had lost a wee bit of interest in the games, but now after the media/pundits have tried to destroy our clubs reputation, I want us to fucking hammer every team we play with no mercy shown.

So come on blues batter these 5-0 and break another record

[CTID Hants]

Fighting for survival or not, they don't have another Leicester in them.

As long as they don't kick lumps out of us, think we should be good for a win.

Pep can put out whatever team he wants tonight.

As long as Foden plays in it.

Four changes for Bournemouth as Steve Cook comes in for the injured Nathan Ake while there are also starts for Joshua King, Junior Stanislas and Philip Billing.

Ake is a big miss for these, usually plays well against us, wouldn’t mind him at City
