Only difficult decisions were left back and whether to play Kompany instead of Stones.
 
Pardew going to carry on where Warnock left off. both a pair of dinosaurs. expect exactly the same display from madeley as we got from mason. this is England after all as Warnock pointed out not sure of team depends which of our walking wounded up to playing. burnley after this one with dyche who is as bad as the other two. three great English managers.
 
2-1 City. From the players who were rested yesterday we can assume Stones, Zinchenko and Dave (if able to come back from Spain) will start. Oh, and Aguero too, but we knew that already. Bernardo in place of Sané which isn't exactly a downgrade.

It is a downgrade based on form this season but he has been better the last few games.

West Brom have loads of injuries too so we can’t use that as an excuse for this one.

I think the team will be fired up for this one and we will win 3/0 or 3/1.

Burnley are in poor form but that will be tough. They have lost to all the top 5 other sides but some of the games were very close.
 
Team picks itself, bench could be interesting though.
A nice controlled game, 1-0 would be fine, just get the job done

Since the derby:

Bernardo Silva- 3 goals, 6 assists
Leroy Sané- 3 goals, 6 assists

By my count. Really interesting to see them neck-and-neck for seven weeks now.

Yeah he has been much better recently after a slow start. I prefer it when he is given the freedom to roam as Pep seems to be giving him now. Great cross on him.
 
Amazingly, they have improved under Pardew, but, especially with recent injuries, will be no match for us. Bernado to start, more time for Diaz please. I thought Sane was beginning to rediscover his form, so his loss is a pity. 3-0.

Very different kinds of players, though, don't you both think? Leroy has an explosive turn of pace, is one of the game's natural wingers. Bernardo has looked fairly lost out on the wing most of the time, to my eye (ok, his cross to Raheem yesterday was a thing of perfection). He naturally drifts inside, and that's where he starts to do damage. They both bring different things to the table, it seems to me. Such a privilege to have two great young players to look forward to watching for years to come.

He needs a minimum of at least thirty minutes. He might lose the ball, just like Leroy and Sterling do, but he can bamboozle the best with his magic feet.

I dont think pep will but now would be the time i'd consider resting KDB and bring him and Kompany back in saturdsy againsy burnley... i think Pep will play that team but with KDB in for Gundogan...

I know de bruyne said they got to rest in the second half with the pace of the game, or lack of it, but i would still use this an opportunity to rest him, Gundogan is a superb player IMO and can step up, Silva will be back hopefully and can make us tick.

be nice to see, if the game allows, to get fern and maybe serg off aroud 60/70 mins but this all depends how the game pans out.

Hopefully goes to form and a straight forward victory and no more effing injuries

To be fair Bernardo has a brilliant delivery on him. Cardiff, Swansea, Bournemouth and Bristol City have all conceded goals from crosses to very short City players over the last seven weeks because of said delivery. He's like a cross between Silva, De Bruyne and Gundogan.
 
Ederson

Walker
Stones
Otamendi
Danilo

Diniho
Kdb
D.Silva

Bernardo
Aguero
Sane

Tough game this expect rondon and Rodriguez to cause us lots of problems that's why I think he will go with danilo.
