@ Aston Villa match thread

[KunDB]

Ederson, Cancelo, Dias, Ake, Zinchenko, Fernandinho (C), Rodrigo, Bernardo, Mahrez, Jesus, Sterling

SUBS | Steffen, Carson, Grealish, Foden, Mbete, Palmer, McAtee, Lavia, Wilson-Esbrand

No Laporte, no Stones. Still no KdB, with Foden and Grealish on the bench.

C’mon City. Let’s get it done.

[Stephen Paul]

Gundogan?

[Stephen Paul]

For me , Gundogan has to play if KDB is absent

[KunDB]

Missed that Gundogan injured apparently. And missed no Walker.

[Stephen Paul]

Hopefully not to serious as he is on top form

[KunDB]

Secretly (until now) I’m hoping Pep is just resting players for the second half of the season for the CL & PL. Just giving them a wee refresh break at a very busy time of the season.  🤞

It is good to see the kids on the bench but the injuries are a big problem now.

[Stephen Paul]

Good to see Dias on the score sheet

[Stephen Paul]

No Stones, Foden , Walker , KDB , Gundogan,  Grealish,  laporte

[Stephen Paul]

What a goal

[KunDB]

What a second goal eye watering beauty the passing the pace and the stunning finish. Pure gold.

[gavin]

Great half from City. Two great goals. Sublime from Bernard. But I'd like to single out Raheem as my man of the first half. He has been at his best.

[gavin]

The reffing in this country is going right down the pan. They foul Zinchenko and get a corner which they score from. The their bloke kicks it out for a goal kick and they get a corner and the officials even look to see if they can give a penalty for it. Farcical.

[gavin]

Hard won victory thanks to the ref giving them absolutely everything. Every time they went to the floor a free kick.

[KunDB]

Totally agree Gavin referring dreadful 

Thankfully despite the officials failures we collected the three points and that was our main mission.

[Stephen Paul]

Bit of a gap opening up with the top three and the rest

[Stephen Paul]

Most of our regulars rested last night

Pep getting ready for the Xmas period
