Swansea’s midfield looks...soft, and it’s not like the Ayews are in fine form.

The midfield is poor and looks even poorer when Carlos decides he can play with only two in there. Clucas is usually pushed right up and we end up having to play long balls to a pair of 5'8 centre forwards, or Olsson runs down blind alleys all on his lonesome.

Naughton & Roberts linked well together against Chelsea. Better balance than when we play 3 cloggers as the back line.

Would be pretty wild to see a really early goal, and one team try to hold for like 85 minutes or something ridiculous.

So for a West Brom miracle

-This game ends a draw
-West Brom beats Palace
-Southampton loses to City by a considerable margin
-Swansea loses to Stoke

Am I missing anything? Seems fully possible unless Stoke just don't give a poo poo cause they are already relegated and bad.

Most likely way for it to happen if it was going to would be for Southampton to end on -22 and for West Brom to end on -21. The next tiebreaker after goal difference is goals scored, and West Brom won't make up the 5 goal difference there.

Anywhere else and Austin scores

After Bournemouth we know that intercepting shots is too dangerous. Without a deflection Fabianski will save everything.

Ki needs to stop trying to play right back, two of them is enough.

Stoke couldn't win a game when they gave a poo poo so I doubt they'll get anything against Swansea. Sorry West Brom.

I hope Swansea hammer us on Sunday and send sparky down.

I blame Mawson for that, trying to play keeper.

He's a poo poo fraud who makes ten mistakes a game, none of which commentators and pundits remember because he's English.

Set Fabianski free, keep Connor, sell the rest for whatever pittance we're offered, they're all poo poo (and the manager's a clueless fraud).

No they just need to win and have Huddersfield to lose both theirs. 9 GD between Swansea and Southampton make them virtually safe; even if they get routed by City I don't see Swansea putting 4+ past Stoke too.

City XI | Bravo, Danilo, Kompany, Laporte, Zinchenko, Fernandinho, Yaya Toure (C), Gundogan, Sane, Bernardo, Jesus

Subs | Ederson, Foden, Diaz, Nmecha, De Bruyne, Mendy, Adarabioyo

Nice of Yaya to get the captain's armband, but Pep clearly doesn't give a poo poo about any more records.
