Gotta feel for Eisa, came in late during ore season, Fam will be back and the form of Weimann, I’d of had him on the bench over Baker today

Me too, but he’ll get his chance at some point.  Squad looking stronger and we said that there are gonna be times when some players aren’t gonna get in the 18.

THIS is how you list a football team.

@Matt Parsons BCFCSLO

Matt has said in a previous thread that City don't list the teamsheet in formation order to avoid giving the opposition even the smallest insight into our tactics for the match. Makes perfect sense really, football is a game of the smallest margins and so surrendering even the minutest advantage isn't worth it imo.

You're just the messenger, as is Matt. But honestly that is a ridiculous excuse.

List Maenpaa last then. Why are we telling the opposition who will play in goal!?

No manager should be making tactical changes an hour before kick off

I think the opposition would be able to work out that the only goalkeeper listed in the starting eleven will play in goal.

With other positions and players it isnt as cut and dry.

Why not?  The opposition line-up / selection might mean something you’ve discussed pre-game might need to be put into action.

If they've discussed it and gone through it then nothing should be too different. I'd much rather we played to our own strengths than worried about the opposition anyway
