Donnarumma
Nunes Dias Khus RAN
Rodri
Savinho Foden Reijnders Doku
Haaland

Need phil and tij to do a bit of work in the middle but amorim's 3-4-3 usually leaves wide open space there anyway

Swap Foden for Nico G if he's not fit.

They just don’t have the dedication now. Can’t imagine Alan Oakes being distracted so easily :-)

I have no idea if this or any of the other comments are true but surely he loves playing football & also loves his days off with his girlfriend. Wouldn't someone play even better if their personal life is going brilliant?
I haven't watched the Brighton goals I was too depressed but it's a team game anyway...don't all the team rollock each other if things go bad?
Cmon blues smash the reds on Sunday and get the etihad absolutely raucous. There's going to be another 6000 fans soon so the boys in blue need to step up & give them a winning welcome whenever that is. Get practicing winning City.
 
Nico
Reijnders
Bernardo
Doku
Haaland

They are the only ones I'd be willing to predict right now, rest will be dependant on fitness.

Still think Trafford starts this. I imagine tomorrow will be Donnarummas first day, so he probably gets 2 training sessions before the Derby, thats just a lot of information to drill into your keeper in a short period of time.

Back 4 will simply be whoever is the fittest by the sound of it then we'll be looking at either rodri, foden or bobb as the extra midfielder with bernardo moving around depending on who gets the nod.

I am still struggling to understand how Man Utd can loan out Onana, and leave themselves reliant on Lammens and Bayindir. Even if they have glowing reports om Lammens, how can they know how he will perform in the Premier League? They can't possibly know. It's a gamble. I think this reflects very badly on Amorim and their football management team.

I don't know, I think that keepers are a law unto themselves.

A good one's a good one in any league, irrespective of team tactics.

What's different about the Premier League, from a goalkeeping point of view?

How on earth have we gone from best team in world to this

Quite simple, the world class core of our team all got old together. Then the majority of our signings in the last few years haven't quite progressed as well as we thought they would. Add to that the major injury to Rodri and persistent niggles to our other main player, Fiden and we are where we are. Let's hope our recent crop of signings make the grade, but three of those are already injured.

Huge game for Dias, this. Need him to step up.
No more bullshit inspirational quotes on Instagram
Is he going to man up and become a leader again, or is his descent into fashion and celebrity nonsense going to lead to the brain farts of the last 12 months?

If selected
 
Doesn't matter who's injured we should be beating this shower of shite Sunday.
Unfortunately previous results suggest otherwise.
3-1 is my prediction but that go either way.
Hopefully Pep gets some bollocks and goes for it. CTID

You can’t get much more experienced than Donnarumma. It won’t phase him in the slightest.

The physicality, and speed of play? The penalty area in set-pieces in PL games has become like basketball thanks to Arteta/Arsenal. Keepers are pressed in the Premier League. Is that different to Belgium? A new keeper also has to learn the strengths and weaknesses of his defenders so he knows whether to play it to their left or right side etc.

I didnt suggest it would phase him. Doesn't matter how experienced someone is, a goalkeeper in a new side has a shit load of information to digest and take on board, not sure there is enough time for him to do that. Plus, we have a £30m keeper we brought in as a number 1 a month ago ready to go.

You don't buy a player of Donnarummas quality and still wonder when he's going to play his first game.
