***Dippers v City Official Match Thread***

[Nickyboy]

Also good that he's stuck with Khus despite Dias being on the bench

[stevefromdonny]

I fucking hate these, this game at the shithole i dread it every year, even when we have a great side we fuck up, if we didn’t fuck up against chelsea brighton and spurs this wouldn't really matter because we would still only be 3 points behind

COME ON CITY

[Kippax Sean]

Your line-up to take on Liverpool!

XI | Donnarumma, Nunes, Khusanov, Guéhi, Ait-Nouri, Rodri, Bernardo (C), O’Reilly, Semenyo, Marmoush, Haaland

SUBS | Trafford, Dias, Reijnders, Ake, Cherki, Nico, Foden, Alleyne, Lewis

Happy Bernie is starting as I heard he was doubtful with groin strain he's been in good form recently and will bring a bit of swagger. Likewise Marmoush with energy and movement. Rodri is a big presence but to me looks a bit off the pace by his high standards. Let Semenyo do his thing and he'll get plenty of joy. Cherki and Reijndeers need more than 10 mins. Still go for 2-1 City.

Looks like a more solid team.

[PeterParker]

I think that is a terrible lineup, looks like another system test and trial.

What's wrong with it?

Nico played most of the season as a LB, now he is in the middle, but most of all, last time versus Scouse he had Salah in his pocket, so a small mental advantage. Marmoush seems he is playing a left winger instead of his original position, Ait Nouri looked bad last week, he should be nowhere near the start. Cherki, the obvious, should play.

No idea what the system is, seems a 4-3-3.

[zabbadabbado]

Heart hopes for a win.

Head says we are going to get fucking hammered.

4-1

Bookies offering a very generous 6/5 given our record the last 30 years.

Got a free £1 bet with Bet Victor stuck it on 5-0

I usually get fuck all right so me writing this is a good Omen for us.

[zabbadabbado]

Forgot to add Salad not scored for 99 Days.

Likely he will hit a hat - trick today.

I am old enough to remember that ginger fucker Fairclough who it felt scored against us every time we played them.

100% Salah will get a few today

[dave watson's perm]

If we win today first league double over the cunts since before the war

[dick dastardley]

We need to turn up and absolutely annihilate these bastards

[Mase]

Wonder if Semenyo will get racially abused again

[Mase]

Haaland is fuckin wank

[carl_feedthegoat]

Fuck g sell Haaland in the summer - usless cunt he’s become lately

[dave watson's perm]

Chance

[carl_feedthegoat]

Haaland is fuckin wank

He’s nothing short of disgraceful this year.

[Mase]

We're desperate to concede

[bigblue]

Does nothing off the ball, can't hold it up, doesn't rile up defenders, and now doesn't finish chances

[dave watson's perm]

Stop fcking about at the back ffs

[Woodyblue]

Stop fuckin about with it at the back
