I think pep will put out his strongest team here
If we win this game we get to sit back on Sunday and enjoy the Liverpool Chelsea game

Cancelo will not want to be a victim,i expect he will make himself available.Whether Pep thinks he is in the right frame of mind is a different matter though.

What about him leaving his wife and children on their own? They are not from this country and will feel isolated and frightened, better he stays with them as far as I am concerned.

Lol can we calm down with Arsenal Praise please.

Playing home or Away means nothing, we would always play our game no matter where we go and I can’t accept that Arsenal is the toughest game remaining.

The two toughest remaining league fixtures are West Ham and Arsenal and Arsenal are playing well. I am not sure why you would find that funny.

I`m sure City will organise a security upgrade.

They're doing ok I mean it was only 6 weeks ago they lost to the rags & Everton they've beat Southampton, West Ham (who were robbed by a red card) Leeds & Norwich it's no mean feat.

Can’t see MCFC staff leaving Cancelo wife n child alone if he says he’s ok to start against Arsenal, they will be well looked after.

I'll be really surprised if he plays or even travels. Pep will leave him home no doubt he'll be in shock and he should be given time off to recover.

Given how Pep was with Merlin and his problems with his little baby, and his general attitude towards players' relation to their families, I am absolutely certain that Pep will give him the option of staying at home. He may even insist on it.
