I would be very pleasantly surprised if we even drew on Sunday but it will be a greater achievement if we win than if Liverpool win (anfield/injuries). With fit squads our first 11 is much better than theirs.
 
Did they double up on Messi when they beat Barca 4:0? What I saw was that they easily out ran Barca which helped them big time. I said I'm in two minds about Sergio/Gabby as Gabby's form has dipped in the last games. But there is a reason why Gabby started most games away from home this season: Wham, Shakhtar, Everton, Palace, Atalanta. Have you thought about what the reason might be? Or Pep has done it without any specific reason apart from keeping Gabby happy?
So gabby's formed has dipped and we are missing half the team so lets leave out our best striker? ok then
 
Ederson
Cancelo
Kompany
Laporte
Zinchenko
Rodri
Silva
Foden
Sané
Mané
Gundogan

Subs: Sterling, Stones, Walker, Foden, Angelino, Doyle, Aguero

3-0 City
 
I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest Pep won't be turning us into Burnley for 1 match.

No he won't but Liverpool are the most intense pressing team I have seen. Like ourselves the ball over the top causes them problems. You have to do whatever wins you the game. Not my decision I will be watching through my fingers on the settee.

The decision is not as easy as you seem to think. As I said, there is a reason why Gabby has started almost all games away from home when available. Again, have you thought what the reason might be? Pep being foolish?

Sergio and Gabby give us different things. I hope whoever starts has one of the best games in his career. I trust Pep. It is easier for him to pick Sergio since, if things go wrong, few would criticize him for starting a legend.
 
Dippers have not played great in games I have seen but scrapping wins, last Saturday they got out by the skin of their teeth, heard they rested a few on Tuesday but we're poor and I definitely saw a shot draw with utd, they benefit from teams fearing the front 3 and sitting off, utd for as bad as they have been at least thought they would get something and they did.
Can't see Pep sending them out in fear, any team in blue will do for me, these twats are due a spanking.
Take Mane out and their bang average, dick van dyke has a mistake in him lately.
Plenty of dippers trying reverse psychology, " think it will be a draw" do they f**k, not in the cults make up.
Come on city let's batter them.
 
Sané | Knee
Laporte | Knee
Zinchenko | Knee
Rodri | Hamstring
Silva | Thigh
Ederson | Muscular Problem

No-one important out then...

Four of those are muscular or non tackle related.

I think the physio team will be a little sheepish.
 
No ederson no party! Absolutely gutted and will be surprised if we concede less than 3 unfortunately.

bravo
Cancelo
Walker
Stones
Otamendi
Mendy
Fernandinho
De Bruyne
Bernardo Silva
Sterling
Aguero
