Would be my team assuming Kane is fit and Reg is out.

A lot of things I didn’t agree with Jose on but one thing I did was that Bale is basically a luxury player and if you put him in front of a full back against a good side you’ll get exposed over and over. A team can carry one luxury player if he’s good enough to influence the game, and given how hard Lucas, Kane and Son work for the team we could give Bale a roaming role among that attacking quartet where he can create chances and shoot from distance but with less defensive responsibility.

Got a feeling Mason will bring Dele back in though.
----------------------------------------------------------------------



It’s a final Ace. We got no hope with our defence playing a defensive game, so just go for it mate. Gareth bale might be a luxury player, but he’s a player who could be that difference to scoring a winner in a cup final. He’s been mismanaged terribly by Jose this season. Look at him when he did start playing ?

Is deBruyne out of ManCity team?

If so, that would be a positive for us!

We have a game on Wed so lets not get too ahead of ourselves but

Hugo
Tanganga Toby Sanchez Reg
GLC PEH Ndombele Moura
Kane
Son

4411 back to basics. City will have more possession. We have to protect the defence. We are still weak at the back.

Can't expect Mason to work miracles in a week and turn us into an attacking team just like that. The old double pivot leaves us exposed on the counter time and time again.

If Kane not fit then Lamela or Bale starts. Lucas and GLC can swap sides.

Can't expect Bale or Dele to start without being match fit in a final. Even if they play on Wed can they play 2 games in such a short space of time?

I would play the above team on Wed too with Bale or Lamela instead of Kane if not fit.

Pack the midfield, try to keep the ball and hope for the best. Good luck Ryan Mason.

Lemme see if I can understand you guys......

Loris
Tanganga, Alerwiereld, Sanchez (? ), Reguilon
Ndombele, Lo Celso
Bale, Deli Alli, H-M Son,
Kane

I just wish you people would use surnames instead of esoteric pet names few will understand.

Playing Sanchez is a recipe for disaster.
Reguilon may be injured, as possibly Lo Celso and Kane.

So all of you are pissing in the wind anyways.

Arsenal ripped us apart because Jose let them do it. Gareth Bale was solid and scoring goals prior to that. We have nothing to lose, as we are probably going to get beat anyway, but no way are we going into that final with a player like Gareth on the bench. He will start and too bloody right.

I’m telling you, Gareth Bale is starting Sunday. You don’t put a player like Gareth bale on the bench in a cup final. Going defensive won’t work with our god awful centre backs, so why not just go for it? You play Bale more central, leaving Lucas/Son to pick up the wide areas

Esoteric pet names? They are their real first names. We have 4 or 5 players in our team these days where their first name is easier to remember how to spell than their surname for thick caaaants like me

I take it you have seen is play lately? They will pick us apart if we go all out attack. PEH and Ndombele will get over ran in midfield as per. I think Sunday should be treated as a damage limitation exercise. Try and get lucky on the counter. That's how I would approach the game anyway.

That’s my point I have seen us play with Mourinho’s boring defensive tactics bringing on Sissoko to try and shut up shop, yet we still get battered, so how the hell do you work out Gareth bale starting will immediately mean we concede more goals ? You go into a final in a one off game taking the game to City, not trying to defend it with a s** awful defensive unit that awful regardless of formation. Gareth Bale starts Sunday for me and I believe Ryan Mason will give him that opportunity

By the way I’m not saying just go gun ho. All I’m saying is Gareth bale should start in a final. If it means dropping Lucas slightly deeper so he can do the dirty work then so be it. Bale starts in a final, it’s as simple as that. If we want to stand a chance of winning it.

Chelsea took it to city in that fa cup game. Now I agree chelsea are 10x better coached than we are and defensively sound, but my point is, Tuchel played some attacking players in Werner, Ziyech etc. He didn’t defend all game. Put the fear into city ffs.
