Strongest team to start. Get it won by half time then take Foden & Dias off and let the others play the rest of the game at walking pace. Aguero on for the last 15 and he'll score.

The nil nil on NYE was in Croydon.

Burnley was 1-1 with Danilo wonder goal cancelled out after a few worldy saves by Ederson as the pressure was put on. 2 games before that tehy beat us 1-0 there, and in 2019 we scrapped through with the GLT sergio goal and brought stones on at the end under real pressure.

Burnley will look at yesterday as very postitive, a long ball to Woods or Barnes could open us up, as has been done before by Burnley to beat us. Theses games are either very close or we run away with them.

And as I recall, Sterling missed an open goal from 2 yards out
 
Well they got ran ragged at Chelsea today and looked fucked at the end of the game. Woods off Injured too, so Ashley and errr Ashley up front on his own against monster Dias.
They are usually more robust at Turf Moor than at our place. They'll give it a good go 1st half but we should have too much for them. I reckon 0 - 2 City then bring on the scouse cunts.
 
A win and clean sheet for us will have the pots of piss boiling all over dipperville and raggy land.
 
Can we keep another clean Sheet? It’s my only concern going into this game. The run of not conceding is fantastic but it would just be like these letter signing pricks to get something out of the game.

The lineup is important for this 1. I don’t think we can afford to rest as many inform players as we did against Sheffield but 1 eye will be on the scousers at the weekend no matter what pep says.

I would play cancelo instead of walker as we need that bit of quality going forward. Sterling needs a game also. John needs to keep his rhythm so maybe start him with an early sub in mind.

Interesting week ahead.
 
At some point id like to see walker and cancelo start together on the right with cancelo in the more advanced role. I believe he has played there in the past. Would it work, i think so.
 
I cant see us winning a game against a team near the bottom of the league and just before the biggest game left in the season. Too much expectation, too much pressure, too much typicalness. 1-0 loss for sure. I feel sorry for us all. Sucks to be us :-(

Torres deserves at least another start after his game v SU. He attacked the defence and HE created the goal for Gabby. We all know that we cannot play the ‘best 11” every game, that will just end up a catastrophe.
Squad rotation is the way to win all these games in front of us. Like Pep said, one game at a time. The guys are being asked to play 2 or 3 games every 9-10 days. That’s punishing for any athlete.

It's only fans who think there is a best 11.
