Ola had a scan early this morning to see extent of recovery to resume full training - so probably too early for Sunday…

Maybe for Brentford then.

So how do we go about it if Aina is out?
Toffolo at right back?
RE: Nottingham Forest - Manchester City - ozzyten10 - 24-04-2025
Personally I’d play CHO as a wing back- he actually played that position for England!
RE: Nottingham Forest - Manchester City - Salvatore Matrecano - 24-04-2025
Before the Villa game I said play a back 3 with Dominguez on the right. Unfortunately Nuno must have listened to me and it turned out that was a crap idea.
Really not sure. Dont think either Toff or Moreno on the right of a 4 works myself. Would have said put Anderson right but can’t afford to do that either with Yates out.
Can we ask City not to play down their left side maybe?

As much as his end product is terrible we need someone capable to deal with Doku who is rapid
I anticipate it'll be Dominguez with Toff on the left.

Pep has changed his approach.
He has ditched starting the wingers, to play more in the middle, so they control the game more and don’t get countered.
Doku and Savinho haven’t started for weeks now.
Since Nico O Reilly has got into the team it has enabled him to pay the extra midfielder.
We will play 4 at the back (they don’t play with a number 9) and flood the middle,will be how we approach this one.
If you look at the recent home victory, we played 4-4-2 with Elanga staying high with Wood, and 4 very narrow in midfield with Domingues, MGW, Anderson and CHO playing the width of the 18 yard box when defending
If we can win the ball and release Elanga and CHO we can unbalance them

That is music to my ears.

Delighted if he is!
