Win.

Simple as that really

Think we will and I reckon we will see a better game than the Wolves one as Leeds wont be so defensive.

2-0 Mahrez

Paul Tierney's ref- the guy who totally bottled sending Milner off against us this season.

I think they have a few injuries but we have Cancelo out suspended, it was mentioned somewhere Rodri is close to a ban as well. Hopefully we can win, however Pep seems to fuck things up v Bielsa so any win will do for me.

That time of the season where 5 yellows start hitting, Ruben is on 4 along with Rodri as you say.

The chances of both of them staying card free for the next 4 games is going to be a miracle

That would do nicely, but recent games suggest we wont score that many. Any old win will do for me. 3 points, don't care how.

We're due to give someone a hiding, after last season shambles and them missing their best players, couldn't ask for a better time to play them. It's a fair prediction.

City boss Pep Guardiola said: "[Leeds are] one of the toughest opponents, they play in a special and unique way.

"We play it just two times a year. We have to adjust a few things, it's completely different to the others.

Am slightly concerned
