Again just don’t know where the goals will come from.

We'll go for a 0-0 draw and lose 4-0 imo.

Haaland

Sorry, sh1t Friday at work so far.

I have two hopes for this game:

• we keep them penned level for an hour
• then we see the emergence of the Moyes V2 'defender blockbuster' of yore. Think Baines, Jags, Unsy, Lescott, Yobo, all of whom had the odd surprise goal in them

Friday feels better already...

International break after a win always seems to be are biggest hurdle, ( tho that could just be bad memories of recent years )

Pace is my biggest concern..

Haaland and Foden.

City are nowhere near out of the woods.

We went there with a way worse team than this last Christmas and got a point.

We have to be looking at getting something here.

Rodri - confirmed out..

Wasn't expecting him to play, but still good news just to give lads an extra boost

They're on good form but not at their vintage levels. I'm not sure if they're playing midweek or not but with their players coming back from internationals we may be playing them at the ideal time

Some enthusiasm, Dave!
I like it, mate.

Alcaraz and KDH both need to start.
If they do, then I fancy us for a draw, at least.

That was the injury, mate

Hopefully adds +5 to pace and heading...

I've predicted 0-0 on Chris Sutton's BBC prediction thing with celebs and AI. None predicted we'd beat Palace but I did.
