Ederson
Danilo.
Kompany.
Laporte
Mendy or Delph.
Fernandinho.
KDB
D Silva.
B Silva
Sterling
Sane
If Spanish Dave not there Foden to start.
Play a really strong team.
Last game of a brilliant season and at least make Southampton earn the right to stay up.
In the away end for this one.
Next to the City end.
 
Would be quite amusing to watch the 'carnival atmosphere' evaporating if Swansea take the lead and we start rattling a couple of goals in...

I think this 100 points is the top record to get and would be surpised to ever see it done again if we are to do it, for me it's the cherry on top of the icing.

Foden has to play in order to qualify for a medal. Surely Pep won't keep him on the bench the whole game, the lad would be so disappointed.

Story is PEP is fuming over foden going awol while away with the England team.
So he is trying to keep the kid grounded.
I hope he gets a run out though.
C.T.I.D

By all accounts he is a top bloke and professional who has done his part on the training ground helping Eddie throughout the season so I would not be opposed to him receiving a medal (after all, backup keepers are often de facto coaches these days, so why would he not deserve the same treatment)...

But, as you have said, he should not be starting in the final match.

I don't get why pep wouldn't let eddie go for the golden glove instead of giving him a game,lucky we had our scoring boots on so it didn't matter
He should never start over eddie in prem games as he is just not up to it
 
Ederson, Danilo, Stones, Laporte, Mendy, Fernandinho, Gundogan, Bernardo, Sterling, Jesus, Sane
Subs: Bravo, Otamendi, Delph, Foden, De Bruyne, Brahim, Nmecha

Bring on the youngsters as subs. Don't expect Pep to play Bernardo in midfield, but would love to see it. No reason to risk Kev before the WC either.
 
Bluewhit says David will be back, if he's back he plays. Then roll on Monday, forecast is sunshiiiiiiine for the Champions.

Yeah ,Jesus has looked rather poor in those last matches.

His away form has generally been fine (apart, unfortunately, for the CL QF). He just hasn't yet cracked playing as a sole striker at home against packed defenses.

Let's go all out and break the 100pts barrier. Then we will go down in football history, as the 1st team to score 100pts in a single season. As we all ready hold 3 new records, 1st most goals in a season, 2nd most points in a season, 3rd biggest goal difference in a season, so why not let's go all out for another 2. Breaking the 100pts barrier and 2nd the biggest points difference between 1st and 2nd.

let's get 3/4 goals up then give the kids a game towards the last 15/20mins or so.
 
Would be frustrating to not hit the 100 point mark now after such an incredible season. A chance to go down in history as as the centurions. Hopefully this will be enough motivation for the players to get the job done.

Ederson
Danilo
Kompany
Laporte
Delph
Fernandinho
D Silva
De Bruyne
Sterling
Sane
Jesus

Yaya has played his last game so harsh him being on the bench over Foden?
 
It was noticeable that last year Zabaleta wasnt included in the squad for the Watford game after he'd had his presentation in midweek. Presumably because his head wouldn't have been in the right place. So I dont think there's any chance that Yaya will be on the bench.
