It’s really pathetic as a PL club we cannot put out a full compliment of 9 players on the bench and in getting to 8 we need two keepers.
Amazed that McGinn isn't starting instead of Bailey ...
Can see McGinn maybe coming on to do a job when ahead and holding out.
Cash and McGinn obviously aren't doing instructions as well and arent trusted to perfom for 90 minutes so have no qualms with the line up even though I champion Ginny to curtail Grealish Emery has set this side up with Bailey to counter and provide goal threat. He scored at Villa Park so has form against Man City
I'm ever so glad we decided in January that the squad was strong enough.
Nice to have a proven goal scorer on the bench….oh ok better with two goalkeepers to be on the safe side.
Villa have tweeted that Duran is on the bench after all
Maybe we’re playing a handicap system like in golf to give them a bit of a chance

Indeed good contingency planning.

Loving your optimism Footy. Wish I could muster even a small glimmer of hope. I look forward to you proving me wrong.

Crikey how do you get your one key job wrong to put out the team list before the game?
Any pre game optimism has evaporated after seeing our first X1. Balance of that midfield is all over the place for me.
Why the duck would you loan out Archer after selling Ings?

we only have one keeper on the bench!
