robin_unreliant Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Is Marley Watkins injured? No sign of Bobby Moore either. Do wonder if he'll make it. 1 Quote Link to comment

Fordy62 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Before today’s game I’d struggle to see a midfield without Korey. Having seen the line up, I’m still struggling. But hey-ho. Clean sheet starts here. Quote Link to comment

Luxo Jr. Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Excited by the line-up, midfield could look better, but intrigued to see how it works out. 1 Quote Link to comment

bristolcitysweden Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 We are not going to beat the forest midfield on style but on energy 1 Quote Link to comment
cityexile Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Puzzled by the shape of that team, particularly when defending, but LJ has seen them in pre season and knows who is already at it. Time will tell I guess. Quote Link to comment
mundz18 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Very attacking team! Quote Link to comment
Redrascal2 Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Astounding. Leaving Korey out if he is fit is a very very poor decision by LJ. 2 1 Quote Link to comment
EstoniaTallinnRed Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Just listening to SL on RB with Twentypence, let's hope we can start the season with a win for confidence and the new players get used to each others game quickly. Hoping for a good win, but somehow think it will be a score draw. Anyway boys come out of the blocks fast and keep up the passing and pressing game. COYR's Quote Link to comment

I have some sad news about why Bobby Moore isn’t on our bench mate, unfortunately he passed away back in the early 90s. 1 2 Quote Link to comment

Since I have just attended my own marriage, my first I hasten to add, i am excusing myself a long winded thread opening; many historical facts have been written of todays opponents and pretty much all other teams in this league so it is time to reflect on other equally interesting subject matters that should become apparent soon, perhaps by match day 2. A tough opener but as my new wife says, its 'all about the ball' which i guess means the same as 'its 11 v 11'. So come on City, a home win if you please. So what is wrong with the balls ?

havanatopia Posted August 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Is that Pato amd Weimann up front? Otherwise its a crowded midfield.. 4-5-1 or maybe 4-4-1-1 1 Quote Link to comment

If Watkins was concussed is there a mandatory period he can't play for? Taylor Moore is injured I believe. Haven't seen anything from the club on either though.

Ska Junkie Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 Maybe Korea isn't 100%? He took a knock against Bournemouth iirc. COYR Quote Link to comment
brad blit Posted August 4, 2018 Report Share Posted August 4, 2018 I think at home it’s brave but perhaps sensible for us to be more attacking with 2 wingers as lots of team come here knowing we will attack and defend accordingly. Then its 2 out of Brownhill, Smith and Pack, Smiths energy can be replicated by Brownhill but neither have Marlons passing ability or strength so it’s a hard but acceptable decision I agree with.

Seems it may be just me who remembers LJ saying 'Taylor Moore? More like Bobby Moore' after one of his early appearances. Before he got the old heave-ho off on loan treatment. Quote Link to comment
