Not looking forward to this.

Hart
Sagna, Otamendi, Mangala, Clichy
Delph, Fernandinho
De Bruyne, Yaya, Silva
Sterling

No Aguero? Thought he was fit to play?

 

[Chi-town blues]

Lol!
I'm certain you meant 'standce' instead of 'dance'

:)

 

[HolisticJim]

Was listening to Collymore yesterday and for once he said something that made sense - people are getting less and less used to playing against 2 upfront which is one of the reasons Leicster and Watford have done well.

I agree and so I'd like to see us play 4-1-3-2.

Pack midfield and let the front three do their stuff

I have a feeling we will win this as long as Pellers doesn't have a brain freeze and play Yaya +1 as the midfield

Hart

Sagna, Otamendi, Mangala, Clichy

Delph, Fernandinho

De Bruyne, Yaya, Silva

Sterling

Would be team as well. But with Yaya deeper in a midfield 3. And the front 3 constantly interchanging.

Not looking forward to this.

I always have a bad feeling about Monday night matches! Mind, I don't feel good with Saturday, Sunday, or Wednesday matches either!

 

[Chi-town blues]

Wow never knew that you are a man :)

After weeks of dreading this has anyone else all of a sudden become confident today? Not sure if it's just excitement

cant see how we will stop them from scoring, our defence is dodgy to say the least, please please please have a decent game tonight back 4, just for once, play well

 

[LittleEgg]

If all of the midfield put in a shift tonight, i don't see a problem. Will be competitive either way.

Can't argue with this side, not much between Kolarov and Clichy and I wouldn't be surprised to see Navas instead of KDB, but Sterling's pace against Mertersacker is a good call. Bring Kun on for the last half hour.

If Aguero is fully fit then he plays it's as simple as that. It's madness not to.
