With the WC in mind, I think this is exactly shy we brought Phillips in. He’s not there to takeover from Rodri, or even Gundogan, he’s their to supplement them.A good game for Phillips to get bedded in. We don't need to flog Rodri to death anymore.
Ederson
Walker Dias Ake Cancelo
Phillips
De Bruyne Silva
Mahrez Foden
Haaland
if (big if) we get 3-0 up get Wilson-Esbrand on.
What makes you think that?This is a horrible thought but I think we’ll lose.
Don't get overconfident now!Dangerous team. Newly promoted away at the Champions. They'll be right up for it. They will give Haaland no space at all and their midfield will be all over de Bruyne. I'll take 1-1 right now.
Are you a hairdresser?I know this would not happen in this game but I'd plat KDB wide so he can whip in low crosses between the GK and CBs for Haaland to get on the end of. And I'd play Alvarez as a busy bee up front because he'd cause havoc (especially with his busy bee twin, Bernardo, behind him).

Why a hairdresser?Are you a hairdresser?
In your post, you said you’d plat KDBWhy a hairdresser?
Before half time ?no thrills 7-0 to city
