I agree with you about Aluko , Ramirez is actually a very tidy and skillful player who keeps the ball well although he isn't physically imposing
Good god why the **** is Aluko starting? The man is ****ing god awful. Also how is Jelly injured again? Thats like the 6th time this season he has been injured.
just to clear up my comment, I'm not questioning the physios at City, if he's been advised to rest it then fine. But if you're going to rest him then surely you need N'Doye on the bloody pitch
I think he's probably been injured all along,but we've needed him out there,so Bruce takes a few risks. Sometimes you have to manage a players injury,it's common practice.
You wonder why not Hernandez if not N'Doye or Jelly, surely you play your next forward?? Anyways IN BRUCE WE TRUST
Hopefully Bruce knows something we dont about playing Stoke, maybe we are going to run them ragged or something then toss on N'Doye and Hernandez for the win.
Steve Bruce probably knows more about picking teams than me - certainnly judging by my fantasy league team - so I'll have to assume he has reasons for his choice and back him. UTT!
He likes catching us out doesn't he. At times these strange selections have worked wonderfully, and at times they have bombed. I'd be happy with a mediocre response and a neat and tidy point.
well my fantasy team is hot.. which means I should be picking the City side and I wouldn't pick that one but if it works out then fair play
It's certainly going to confuse Stoke and possibly destroy their gameplan - they couldn't have prepared for this.
We need a huge slice of luck or a biased referee (our way obviously) to get 3 points today...I'm hoping for both...
