Will be interesting how Pep keeps the flow going and intensity high.
4 matches this month, players might be bored...
Last January we had 9 matches!

Good time to get fit and ready for the rest of the season while Chelsea and dippers have problems left and right...
I think there'll be a warm weather training trip to Abu Dhabi if the travel rules permit it.

We have 8 days between this and Chelsea and I think there's a 9-10 day gap at the end of the month.

I expect we will have a fair few covid cases between then and now which will alter the side but assuming everybody is available.

Steffen
Walker
Stones
Ake
Zinchenko
Fernandinho
Gundogan
Mcatee
Palmer
Grealish
Sterling/jesus/foden

Players coming back that need games mixed with the lads on the periphery. Take a strong lead then utilise the bench with the likes of Mbete, Wilson-Esbrand, lavia and kayky seeing minutes.

Right, in @MAG 's great fixture list there's even a
13-day gap between Soton away and FA cup R4.
We'll see.

Good shout if all available
 
A week rest both before and after this tie. Anyone expecting lots of youngsters will probably be disappointed. I will probably be full strength to keep momentum. Hopefully a McAtee and Palmer cameo off the bench

Now you’re thinking like Pep!

This will be a relatively full strength City team, with squad players getting a game and use of the 5 dubs IF we can get a 2 goal margin.

Pep takes every competition seriously. He loves “titles!”
