  1. I honestly cannot believe Zubimendi is starting.

    He was physically spent vs Bournemouth, is 1 yellow away from missing the SF 1st leg and will obviously start Sunday, too.

  2. Hincapie back is good, hopefully he doesn’t get an early yellow against City again.

    this time Martinelli and Gyokeres will work and we’ll score an early goal and win 4-1!

    Nice to see Dudziak on the bench, back from injury I think?

    edit: no i think he returned from a loan spell

    edit 2: return from loan spell coz of injury

    Does Arteta want Zubimendi to collapse on the pitch? The guy is tire physically and mentally

    Yes of course, let us start the same front 3 that has never worked, what a great idea

  6. I was hopeing for MLS in there at LB. For him to support Zubi in midfield and push Rice up alongside Eze, in a 3-2-4-1 when in possession.

  7. I’m going to assume that Havertz and White are being managed.

    Hopefully Mosquera has a good game.

    That bench looks okay but ffs we’re missing timber, calafiori, odegaard, saka for the biggest week of the season….

    Good. White needs to gain back his form, and glad we’re not running the havertz in midfield gamble

  10. Lewis skelly benched after a promising game vs Bournemouth, Zubimendi forced to start after acknowledgment from Arteta he’s been overplayed and the same failed front three vs Bournemouth.

    Should be a fun watch, hopefully Martinelli gets told it’s the Champions League.

  11. hopefully Rice or Zubimendi get subbed off for Norgaard & have some rest before City. But then again this is Mikel so no chance

  12. Jesus look how weak that bench is. Reminds me of our bench VS PSG last year. How are we cooked again after adding 7 new out fileders. SMDH

    Huge to have Hincapie and Eze back and that Rice starts. Just hope they are all actually fit.

    Zubimendi again lmao. The man’s so burnt out he couldn’t string passes nor chase stray balls and he still wants to play him. This is some dog shit man management

  15. I don’t know if I can stomach 90 minutes of watching Martinelli dribble into the corner and miss a pass to Gyok in the middle.

    Sporting can’t afford to sit back so, in theory, this front line should be taking advantage of the space in behind. Hopefully, the team behind them can find them better today vs this past weekend. Maybe the fullback changes will help in that regard. COYG
