If rodri is fit, the only changes id be tempted to make would be ake in for o’reilly, no slant on o’reilly at all, id just prefer a flatter back 4.
And gonzales in for bernardo

Fuck me were playing arsenal not prime Real Madrid or prime Barcelona. These fuckers haven’t won the league in 21 years. Some of you need to grown a pair.

Strange - why do you relate somebody's opinion about City chances to having/not having courage?
 
I shall be pleasantly surprised if we get a point, fairly astonished if we get all three. Please don't bother with the tired injunction about “growing a pair”. I have a pair, thank you, and they've generally stood me in good stead.
100% of me wants to win this. That's the MCFC supporter. The rational man knows, quite simply, that we are still a team transitioning to where we want to be. There were good things in the last two games. Hell, there were even decent periods in the Tottenham and Brighton games. As a team, we're still a fair way from where we want to be. Arsenal's is now very largely in place. They would have been well worth a point at Anfield, at the Emirates they've thumped Leeds and Forest. Granted, we are, by a considerable margin, more difficult customers than those two. I shall be extremely annoyed if we get thumped (like last season), and I don't expect it.
This game has come a bit early. Two months up the road it would be a different story, I think. I'd like a 1-0 to us. No, I'd love it. I predict 2-0 or 3-1 to them.
 
Performance over result here today. Let's look attacking and confident, we've too often been passive in the last 18 months. Play the same 11 and let's see.

If his role in the team is to cut off passing lanes, rat around the pitch and support the defence why don't we play the guy we paid 60 million for who's quicker, stronger, more aggressive and can carry the ball forward and pass it forward quickly. Gonzalez.

It's obvious why. Because you'll have to drop Reijnders or play Foden on the right wing.
