In my opinion anyone calling Kolarov 'OK' or 'decent' at CB is massively undercrediting him. He has been excellent almost every time he's played there for me.

We always do well against Bournemouth and they can't defend to save their lives right now, but I think it'll be tough on us.
In the build-up to today there was debate over whether we'd drop Jesus- I don't think there's any chance he'll be dropped for this one.

Caballero
Zabaleta
Kompany
Otamendi
Kolarov
Fernandinho
Touré
Silva
Sané
Aguero
Jesus

Bravo, Stones, Sagna, Delph, De Bruyne, Iheanacho, Sterling

Bravo will probably come back in for the FA Cup game that Saturday.

Think you're spot on with that first 11, de Bruyne needs a rest. And hopefully, Bournemouth try to play their usual passing game
 
I want Aguero back in the side but how the hell do we do it? The way Pep sets up is for 1 striker. Jesus can play wide but it's who do u drop from Sterling & Sane? Pep must be loving the options he has available. So we'll be playing 3 games in 8 days (Bournemouth, Huddersfield & Monaco) 3 different competitions all must wins.

I'd try....

Caballero

Stones Kompany Otamendi

Sterling De Bruyne Fernandinho Silva Sane

Aguero Jesus

Need 3 points again need to start opening a gap on 5th spot come on CITY.

Howe has said he'd rather die than change his style of play so I think we can take advantage of them being open.

Ever since I got my time machine it's been gathering dust in the shed. Just didn't know what to do with it. But now I've started going into the future to look at team selections and I can't believe I didn't think of it sooner, this is fun ;)

We will see. I am sure your prediction is very accurate
