Why are people thinking that de Bruyne won’t start? It’s our first league game and he will have had a rest with a full weeks training? Also sane terrorizes arsenal when he plays?

I wouldn’t be averse to playing the same XI - barring Ederson for Claudio -that started on Sunday.

Ederson

Walker
Stones
Laporte
Mendy

Fernandinho

Foden
Bernardo

Mahrez
Agüero
Sané.

However, judging by how wrong I was with my prediction for the Community Shield, I’m probably miles off.

Agree, think this is what will start.

Not so sure about that. I know Sane hasn't been playing well, but his pace may be needed. Hudson-Odoi was tearing Bellerin a new one in their friendly.

COME ON CITY !! Looking forward to this. Especially now that we buried our Arsenal away hoodoo last season. CTIFD

 

[Easy]

Kolasinac is out. Their fullbacks need to be targeted.

Bellerin, Lichstiener, Monreal can be got at. CBs also.

I think this is the best one, unless kev is ready in which case him instead of foden. But would love to see Phil start, so win win!

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

Can't see KDB or Sterling in the starting 11 with only a couple of training sessions each.
10 mins off the bench for each.
