Fuck off international football. Proper football is back

Sadly no KDB but we may get Aguero having a run out and getting a few minutes under his belt

We owe these for the shit show in the Cup semi last season and despite their recent upturn in results they still have the same soft underbelly so we should run out winners

3-1 Sterling

Come on City

I think for the first time in 10 years I'm not confident going into a match against Arsenal.

I hope Pep doesn't play 2 defensive midfielders - that always holds us back.

If Aguero can start it will be a big boost. I know he usually needs a few games to get back to full fitness but even if he can play 60 mins today, having an actual striker up front will make a big difference.

Aguero has posted saying “I’m back” so I guess he’s assuming he’ll be at minimum on the bench.

Bit worried about this, can see headlines “ Partey time at Eitihad” made for it isn’t it, no KDB is the worry for me

It's always a bad sign when Pep starts sucking off the opposition, I wish he fekking stops it and just takes it to them.

He scored the winning goal in a midweek game with the 2nd team so fingers crossed....

Remember when our COO Omar came out and said the reason they didn't get a LB is because theyve got a quality player in Mendy who they hoped would return to from....well hes injured AGAIN and maybe for awhile. Comical transfer dealings.

Him injured is the best thing that could have happened to us.

Yea square peg round hole and all of that but let's hope Cancelo has a good game at LB today.
