Big bonus that gundogan isn’t in the holding role. Still would rather Fernandinho in midfield though but that was never going to happen so it’s the best we can expect.
Big trust placed in angelino, I’m assuming mendy is injured again but cancelo is on the bench so big vote of confidence for him to get the nod. needs to perform though, I don’t like the prospect of him defending deep crosses to the back post, I expect them to target that if not from the off, definitely the second half if things are tight.
If silva is fit for the bench he should start imo. Rather see him start and gundogan replace him when he’s spent
Going to need numerous performances of the season from the players sent out today to get anything but they’re capable.
