Love Vinny…..but this has to be the usual burnley 0 city 6

 

[remember arthur mann]

I know it's going to be somewhat dsifferent this time around but our recent record against Burnley is none too shaby:

 

[The Scarlet Pimpernel]

We look a bit average without him though so if he can’t then Foden definitely needs to.

Foden looked sharp - I’d like to see him start and KDB come off the bench but think he will probably do the reverse unless he saves KDB for a super cup start ?

 

[St.Pauli support]

Referee: Craig Pawson.
Assistants: Simon Bennett, Steve Meredith.

Looks good to me!

Hopefully in midfield. I was surprised Pep didn't start him last week. He needs to cement his place in the team this season.

 

[Asa's left peg]

See they've signed Sander Berger from Sheffield.

Agreed; can see that.

 

[Damanino]

Fourth official: Joleon Le Scott.

wow, didnt know he is now a ref.

 

[TrentGrisham]

My XI will surely be wrong but...

Ederson
Akanji Dias Stones Ake
Rodri
Bernardo Foden
Palmer Haaland Grealish

Don't think we need Kovacic AND Rodri versus a side like Burnley.
