Wow! Not sure what to make of that team…

3-5-2 with Foden finally getting a run-out at left (wing)back? :)

Excited to see if Ortega can really put some pressure on Ederson now

I hope so. I think we might struggle with a 4-4-2. Gundogan and Rodri don't really have the energy to hold CM on their own in a 4-4-2. Foden in CM though could provide that extra energy.

Yeah. I would be surprised if Pep was to play 442, nevermind in a CL away game against our toughest opponents.

He pretty much played LWB against the dippers I thought with Cancelo at RWB.

You could be right with that. Similar to the Liverpool game or some kind of 3 at the back in defence and 4 going forwards.

Strangely the one football app has a completely different line up for City.

If Bajkowski has got it wrong, his credibility will have taken a knock, seeing as he is the City scribe at the MEN.

Maybe a 3-5-2 like against the dippers (as someone mentioned).

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

Surprised to see Mahrez in the line up

 

[xgorton]

Pretends to be suprised that Pep is experimenting in a Champions league must win(kind of, at least not lose) game

Not a must win game,we only need a draw.

I think Ederson is carrying a knock. He looked like he was holding his side on Saturday and I think that's why some of his kicking was a bit off.

Hope that was the reason……..
