I just hope Pep doesn't over think this one. Keep it simple and play our best players in their best positions!!

EmersonWalker Stones Dias Ake
KdB Rodri Silva
Mahrez Haaland Grealish

If we play our game we will win no problem. We just have to take it as another game and not fuck about trying to counter imaginary problems.

 

[Don Karleone]

Pretty happy with that. Would've preferred Walker to start but we've got this

 

[deano ou812]

No Walker thought we might have seen him to counter their speed merchants..

 

[Tricky_Trev]

Benching Ramadan Mahrez on a Champions League night is a big call. Bernardo doesn’t have the same threat.

 

[Claytop]

Thought Mahrez might have got the nod due to his habit for turning up in CL knockouts but can’t argue with the team.

 

[PragueBlue]

CITY: Ederson, Stones, Akanji, Dias, Ake, Rodri, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Grealish, Haaland

That's what I expect. Personally would go for Walker instead of Akanji.

 

[SebastianBlue]

Benching Ramadan Mahrez on a Champions League night is a big call. Bernardo doesn’t have the same threat.

Not sure that is true given Mahrez’s performance against Soton.

Also, Bernie provides for more defensive cover, which will be needed tonight.

 

[Alexia_Ko]

This lineup is the same as the one that started vs Leipzig and look how that played out. This lineup is fine, Bernardo either plays RW or has a free role to help out defensively. Calm down

 

[mosssideblue]

More than happy with the line up.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Someone called that team the other day, same as Saints but Silva for Mahrez.

This team will win. 3-1.
