As great as he is, I don't think Stones can be trusted to play three games in a row.

Hoping Gvardiol is fit enough to play or Khusanov gets his chance.

Going to be another difficult game, but one we can't really afford to lose after yesterday's result (and with United and Arsenal up next). I'd sacrifice a forward for an extra midfield player, just to make us a bit more compact and less vulnerable to the counter.

Ederson (or Donnarumma)

Nunes
Stones
Dias
Gvardiol

Gonzalez
Rodri
Rjeinders

Foden
Cherki
Haaland

I like that but team but Cherki lacks discipline for me at this early stage in his City career (especially to start an away game).

He showed yesterday that his work rate isn’t where it needs to be yet and you can’t have any slackers in this league.

I’d go with that team but put Marmoush in for Cherki.
 
Agre with earlier poster. We have all the tools for a back 3. Wing backs nunes and ait-Nouri.

Depending on fitness

Khusanov stones gvardiol
Nunes Nico reijnders ait-nouri

Don’t think there’s much chance of Ait-Nouri being fit, sadly.
 
---------------Haaland
Ait-Nouri Foden Cherki Bobb
-----------Rodri Reijnders
-------Gvardiol Dias Stones
---------------Trafford

I'd go back to the box midfield with Foden (or Cherki) coming in from the Left and Ait-Nouri effectively playing left wing like how Gvardiol used to.

O'Reilly (or even Gvardiol, with Ake or Khusa at CB), if Ait-Nouri isn't fit.
 
Draw written all over it here. Trafford, Nunes, Gvardiol, Dias, Stones, Gonzalez, Reijnders, Bernardo, Foden, Cherki, Haaland
 
We got big question marks at GK, RB, LB if Ait-Nouri isn't fit and who plays wide left. Marmoush is not a winger and Doku has been poor in both his outings so far. I wonder if Pep will start with Foden on the left. I don't mind Marmoush playing inside behind Haaland but no way should he be wide left.
