Looking forward to this tonight. Just setting off. How many clubs in this country could get 50,000+ for a TV game on a Tuesday?

5/6 tops.
 
I really am hoping that Foden starts tonight but i doubt it will happen
All of a sudden we have Gundo, Rhodri, KDB, Merlin, Berny and Foden battling for 3 places.

I'd go with the line up below and take the chance to rest Gundo, KDB, Merlin, Walker, Stones, Mendy.

---------------------Ederson------------------------
Cancelo------Otto-------Ferny--------Angelino
------------------=---Rodri--------------------------
Mahrez------Foden------Berny---------Sterling
----------------------Jesus--------------------------

That said it is just as likely to be as below.

---------------------Ederson------------------------
Walker------Stones-------Ferny---------Mendy
----------------------Gundo-------------------------
Berny--------KDB----------Silva---------Sterling
----------------------Jesus--------------------------

I think he'll play today. I can't see Dave or Rodri starting personally.

I like your second line up but with Phil instead of Dave and Angelino for Benji.

Yeah, i would like to see that as well, one way or another i think there are plenty of reasons why Foden needs to start,

Home game with everyone rooting for him.
Silva has been struggling with form and fitness.
We should spend most of the night on the front foot.
He will give us drive and legs in the middle.
 
Be hard to fathom Foden not starting LM in this game, esp given Silva cramped after an hour. He needs a rest up so he can exploit the spaces between the barcodes on the weekend.
