Matchday Thread: Rams v Man city

[Andy_Faber]

As before, anyone bothered?

Will we see Haaland leading their line?

Me, 2-0 Rams

[StensonRam]

Just need to nullify them like Liverpool did yesterday and it's an easy win for us.......erm maybe not!

[ramAnag]

Always nice to win but I’m honestly not bothered. To me it’s an irrelevant competition in which we’re bound to play a very much weakened side with an important match just three days later. Just moving on injury free will do me.

Does this count as a game for Collins' suspension? If so, quite handy!
I'll go for 0-3

I don't know. Be good if it is.

I mean technically he could play I suppose but it is supposed tobe Man City's u23 squad and I'm sure he is not in that!!

[MadAmster]

U21s I thought. If tonight isn't one of Collo's 3 games ban, I'd play him and rest Osula for Friday night.

I think we'll see Loach get a game in goal. 3 or 4 players rested and fringe players getting game time.

[MadAmster]

Looks like I was right-ish, more fringe players in than I expected. What did we learn about ourselves? That we can accommodate as many a 4 fringe players and still be good. From 5 and above the overall quality diminishes.

We got done for speed. Borges is like the proverbial off a shovel. Poleaxed one minute, running faster than a greyhound next. Suspicious?

Back to the serious stuff Friday. They've had a defeat and a scraped win in their last 2 League games. I expect them to bounce back and I can see Ipswich winning 3-1.
