Not an easy starting XI to predict. Despite the injuries, we still have quite a few options available, particularly in midfield and out wide.

The only nailed on, 100% guaranteed, starters are Ederson, Dias, Gvardiol and Marmoush imo. Leaves seven places theoretically up for grabs. Hoping we see a starting line-up similar to the Leicester game, but suspect it’ll be closer to the Bournemouth starting XI.

Think Guardiola will opt for experience/control, so can see the likes of Kovacic, Silva, Foden and De Bruyne coming back in.
This is part of our problem this season, back in the day we'd know 8/9 of our genuine first eleven.

Onwards and upwards, the sky is City blue and a big result is waiting for us today. Time to put the rags back in their box.
 
Probably the most relaxed I’ve been on a Derby day morning for some time. I don’t see them being a problem to beat at all. The KDB timing means they will all now want to push for the best ending to the season possible.

2-0 by half time. Plenty of boos from the 115 scarf wearers, then another 2 in the second half. OT half empty by 80 minutes.

Now, where’s she hid the Stella? Come on City!!
 
Dreading it. Need to win given every fucker around us has been winning recently and this weekend in particular. And it’s a derby against the rag fuckers.

Doku against Dalot would be a laugh, hope it happens.

Come on City!


Ederson

Nunes
Khusanov/Dias
Gvardiol
O’Reilly

Gundogan
Nico

Savinho
Grealish
Marmoush
Doku
 
I reckon Moosh will cement his place in derby history today, scum would have been expecting big Erl today obviously, but I reckon his injury is going to allow Moosh to find his game in this City side .
 
If you could trust them to play as they once did you would definitely have De Bruyne, Bernado and Foden in the team.

However they have been below par for various reasons and it is difficult to trust them.

If we play the two headless wingers we are in for a struggle.
 
No matter how bad they are, we aint been great either...we have improved recently but we are way way off being near where we have been in recent years

They have players who can certainly get at our back 4 - Garnacho, Hoijland both have pace to get wide and inbehind out back 4...Nunes potentially at right back is a weakness and Gvardiol defensively has been all over the place as well

We wont have the same control over the midfield as we usually have which means they will get chances to break on us.

This game is a lot harder than many are saying no matter how shit they are....and no Haaland makes it even harder

We have to watch their fullbacks/wingbacks as well as they can exploit us outwide
Can you think of anything else for us to worry about?
 
Rags on track to better last year's club record 14 PL loss season. Let's help them match that with a win today please City.
 
No idea how this will go tbh, they’ll hit us on the break and get all the decisions, maybe KDB will turn back the clock for 90 mins and rip them a new one.
 
Why's Divan Mubama second favourite to score anytime on Sky Bet?
 
First goal today will be key. These two sides are delicate at the moment.
Rags being at home will put more pressure on them. If we score first I think we will beat them.
Important points:
Just watch 50p head at corners. Don't let that dick have any opportunities.
Don't be sloppy in your passing, blue boys.
Oh, and Khusanov, empty that crying Portuguese wanker at every opportunity.

That's it from me. That's all I've got.
