Actually good point about Nolito for Sterling. I'd say it's a touch early for Sagna to start.

-------------------------Hart-----------------------
Sagna------Kompany------Stones-------Clichy
-------------------Fernandinho------------------
----------------Silva--------De Bruyne----------
Sane--------------------------------------Nolito
----------------------Aguero---------------------

We're at home. I see Silva/De Bruyne as the new Iniesta/Xavi.

Come on City!

 

[Wretched Vengeance]

This IS tough, really tough. But I'll go for:

........................Hart

Sagna........Otamendi........Mangala.......Clichy

............Fernandinho.........Fernando

Sterling.................Silva....................Nolito

..........................Aguero


Obviously doubts with Sagna and Mangala as to how fit they are.

It could well be completely wrong. The options are quite fantastic.

Will be interesting to see if Navas, Nasri and Bony will still be here.

The options are quite fantastic, but a little awkward for the first game.

Two players recovering from injury: Kompany and Gundogan, and a lot of players who will have a fortnight's training at best behind them.

 

[Cityfan]

Hart
Maffeo Otamendi Kolarov Clichy
Fernandinho Silva Delph
Navas Aguero Nolito

I think he will go with who is fit and has experience, don't expect to see the team look much like that in a month.

 

[Seosa]

Hart

Sagna, Adarabioyo, Otamendi, Clichy

De Bruyne, Fernandinho, Touré, Nolito

Sterling

Agüero


I wouldn't be surprised if any of Gunn, Angelino, Maffeo or the Garcias featured either, and I can certainly see Sané at least coming on as a sub.

 

[Hart&CitySoul]

Not fussed as long as we play well and get a win under the belt early doors. Let's have it blues, getting excited now it's nearly time!

 

[timperleyblueboy]

Think he will pick his fittest 11..

so probably Hart
Maffeo Dennyer(Stones if signed) Ottamendi Clichy
Dinho Fernando
Silva
Sane Sterling
Kelechi
With a bench of - GK, Aguero, KDB, Nolito, Toure, Sagna, Angelino

but how knows, some great options

If Aguero doesn't get injured by next Saturday why would he be on the bench ? Teams have players coming back after others every year.. Dont understand why people thing we will leave Kevin and Aguero out of first game of season.Really strange views from people.

 

[Ric]

Incredibly difficult to predict. At a push, I'd go:

Hart
Sagna
Otamendi
Denayer
Clichy
Fernando
Fernandinho
Silva
Nolito
Sterling
Aguero

Subs: Caballero, Zabaleta, Mangala, Delph, Toure, Sane, Iheanacho

 

[Sleeping_Easy]

I think the game against Arsenal will give us some big clues as to who he plans on using against Sunderland.

I kind of agree with this bit as our best 11, however i'd put in Otamendi over Stones for now. I think it will look more like a 433 as well so Silva and Nolito will push right up alongside Serg.

 

[TonyM]

I'm going with ...
........................Hart...................
Fernandinho Otamendi Mangala Angelina
............Fernando......Gacia.............
.....Silva ............KDB .........Nolito....
...................,..Aguero .................

With Sane and Sterling coming on later for a bit extra pace.

Just to add drive from the full back positions.

Hart
Maffeo Otamendi Kolarov Clichy
Fernandinho Silva Delph
Navas Aguero Nolito

I agree with this
When all are healthy and fit, I need 12 positions to play my favorites
This going to get real interesting once this thing gels

Hart
Maffeo - Otamendi - Denayer - Clichy
Fernandinho - Fernando
