Subscriber RandoEFC+ Posted July 28, 2019 Subscriber Posted July 28, 2019 People hate on the Community Shield every year so I await the annual clamouring of insightful "glorified friendly" quips, however, at least it's an opportunity for the actual fans to see their team play during pre-season without flying out to America or Thailand or getting up at 3am to find a stream.
Dr. Gonzo Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 I’m actually annoyed we have to play in this glorified fucking friendly. We didn’t win the league, we didn’t win the FA cup, why the fuck do we have to be involved in this shite? It should be 2 City XIs
Happy Blue Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 It's the big one ..it's fuckin HUGE!! ..the Champions of League football vs the Champions of cup football, the two best teams in the world right now go head to head for the super cup shield, even if Liverpool win, we are still better
Azeem Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 Community Shield > Carling Cup or whatever it's called now

The Community Shield is quite literally a charity match - the proceeds are distributed to various charities and initiatives; much like a testimonial match. They've just given it a trophy, but it's a glorified friendly that goes to a good cause.
Happy Blue Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 Reports that Sane starts, if he was close to a £140million move that wouldn't be the case
Rick Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 1 Alisson 66 Alexander-Arnold 12 Gomez 4 V an Dijk 26 Robertson 14 Henderson 3 Fabinho 5 Wijnaldum 11 Salah 9 Firmino 27 Origi Happy to see Gomez starting above Matip in this. Matip has been great for us last season, but Gomez has so much potential and its up to him now to make that spot alongside Virgil his own.
Administrator Stan Posted August 4, 2019 Author Administrator Posted August 4, 2019 Origi to get the winner in another final.
LFCMike Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 Apparently Milner has a knock so that's why he's not on the bench. Surprised no Brewster on the bench as Firmino or Salah won't play 90 I don't think but there is options on the bench anyway.

He should be in there over one of the centre backs. Worst comes to worse, Fabinho can slot in the back four. Brewster should have been there, would have given the lad a confidence boost.
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted August 4, 2019 Subscriber Posted August 4, 2019 Our son is shooting down to watch the second half, busy in his taxi at the moment so there will be no booze for him.
LFCMadLad Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 Wheres all the City fans. Wembley is a sea of red.
Administrator Stan Posted August 4, 2019 Author Administrator Posted August 4, 2019 There goes Sane's transfer...

Administrator Stan Posted August 4, 2019 Author Administrator Posted August 4, 2019 Goal Man City! Sterling from close range.

Administrator Stan Posted August 4, 2019 Author Administrator Posted August 4, 2019 Alisson could have done better there I think. Wasn't that powerful from Sterling.

Rick Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 City look they have 3 more players on the pitch than us.
LFCMadLad Posted August 4, 2019 Posted August 4, 2019 Why since the start of pre season have we started playing such a high line with our FB's playing basically as wingers? We keep getting exposed time and time again. I hope this isn't a tactic we carry on with because we will lose more times than we win.
