Ake makes me nervous. Especially when paired with LaPorte. Alas, he’s definitely stepped up his game this season.

Forgot to mention that I think Zinchenko would start for at least 2/3 of all teams in the Premier League.

Starters

Steffen
Cancelo
Stones
Ake
Zinchenko
Fernandinho
Bernardo
Foden
Grealish
Sterling
Jesus

Subs

Ederson
Gundogan
Dias
LaPorte
Rodrigo

Whoops. Sorry about the double lineup.
Ake always scares me. I post here about it every time. He’s good to concede 1 goal every appearance. I like our chances offensively. I think we pull it out 3-2.

Given the injuries; I think Pep is content to bow out of the FA Cup. Todays lineup defensively wasn’t gonna slow Liverpool down at all. Let’s hope the gamble pays off for the EPL and UCL.

I hope that’s the case. And hopefully Zac’s play doesn’t do long term damage for Team USA. Quick turnaround for both teams with LP getting United Tuesday I think. We are home for Brighton who shut out Spurs today.

I won’t believe it until he’s announced, but unless we get gazumped I think he is wearing a city shirt at the end.

I think he’s gonna come to City.

Do have some trepidation about the price tag. Knowing he’ll be making 40% more than KDB.

That all said; if he fills the hole left by Aguero and puts out similar production we’re in a great spot.

Pep: Walker won’t be fit tomorrow. KDB and the others, we’ll see tomorrow. We are going to play every game as a final. I am so satisfied with things after all the problems we’ve had this season. Ruben trained well today but he’s been out 7 weeks. More than delighted he’s back

Me: Ok, now I am worried.

Not bad in the grand scheme if the reported £110 mil or so is the total for the deal, including salary and Raiola’s cut.

One thing I keep seeing is that there’s a buy-out clause. Not sure I believe that, can’t recall taking on any player that we’ve granted a buy out to. Maybe if it’s like £300 mil or something like that then whatever.

Ballus lived with Pep for some time. Has written all of his books as well.

One of the most connected out there. Huge.

Is anybody else worried that we've lost the rest of the season from these past two weeks?

We've done okay on the results front but did they give up too much re health, momentum, etc

Liverpool is soaring and feels like City is just scraping by to set up a colossal let down like last year's UCL final

Hope I'm wrong - might feel totally different if Mahrez hit that shot at the end of 2-2

I definitely have the nerves. LP is clicking at a real good rate. We need a positive performance today to ease some nerves.

Yeah, City need a 3-0 type result, but I’m afraid it will be 0-0, 1-0, or 0-1
