Good luck if you aint in the car park by now
Mitchell
Norman Mousinho Nelson Garbutt
Brannagan Hanson
Henry Baptiste Holmes
Whyte
Would be my team. All of our players even remotely likely to make something happen (Holmes, Whyte, Henry & Baptiste) on the pitch. Holmes and Henry keep it narrow and compressed and crowded centrally. Baptiste can drop in and make it a three in midfield when needed. Branno and Hanson back together at CM.
No disrespect, but if the likes of Kompany and Otamendi are playing there is zero point in playing Obika or Smith. We won’t get the ball anyway, and neither of them will get an inch. At least Whyte is quick and if, by some miracle, he does get the ball at his feet, even the best defenders don’t like players running at them with pace.
Suspect if Long is involved it will be instead of Norman - who KR didn’t sound too pleased with after the first goal at the weekend.
Predictions - hard to see us scraping 25% possession let alone threatening an upset. Like most i’d take a creditable, low scoring defeat to build confidence and jumpstart our flatlining season. However, like most (and if their rumoured starting line-up is correct) I fear that if City are even remotely up for this it could be a cricket score...
City’s train to MK is running late.
No, you're thinking of Kit Van City...Is that their latest foreign signing?
Crappiest EVER half and half scarves being punted outside the ground - zero takers so far.....
I'm online Malc. Didn't get a ticket as was in Tenerife until last Friday.Guess I'm the only one online this evening. Sounds like all the rest are stuck in the car parks until tomorrow morning.
Just hoping that it won't be too high a score tonight. Don't want to embarrass Man City too much.
Robbo is batshit crazy isnt he?!
Confident about this one. 3-1 Oxford.
