Man City vs Aston Villa Match thread

No Martinez, he's off then.

I heard from a very top top sauce that Martinez, Rogers and Watkins are locked up in an hotel near Manchester airport waiting for Ratspiss to fly in and make em sign papers. Make what you like of that....

That doesn't sound right, Watkins is starting today. Maybe he meant Konsa instead of Ollie.

But other that that i think it's bang on. And you know how it is...my hooch is a pro gamblers so to him they all look the same.

Apparently it's "Pep"'s last game today - who knew?

No one knew that not even those of us who were raised an eyebrow when he he signed a notional 2 year contract last year.

Blimey, no striker on the bench

Wait what? Why had nobody mentioned this?

Bournemouth and Brighton will be loving that line up!

Sick note Martinez missing as usual.

why would he play with a broken finger with the world cup coming up. No need for conspiracy theories. Martinez is staying ffs. Without him we would not be top 5 or Europa League winners.

Bizot.

I hope we fine Martinez every time he skives off.

Makes much more sense to play a keeper with a broken finger, in a meaningless end of season game, three weeks before the start of the World Cup.

I hope he fucks off to Man U. Hardly shows he’s committed to the cause.

I don't for one minute think we can expect to draw any meaningful conclusions from this team selection.

[ChicagoLion]

A lot of woosh going on.

Some of the comments in this thread. FML.

Jason Mohammad's research letting him down. Jermaine "at it again" Beckford asked how many Europa Leagues Emery had won, Jason could only name the clubs he's won at. What a coconut.
