Any spares going for this?

lets be honest here and liverpool play before us so the pressure could be added ?
burnley away is a nightmare game coming back from international duty. because a large percentage of city players have be playing and flying around the world.so most of the burnley players have been off for a week. then on the training field this week.

i always feel city are at our best when we play 2 times a week and got our teeth into a good run of wins.
when we come back from a break pep does not have a clue what players are fit or what day they are coming back
so its patchy and a full squad of players will be only back in training on friday morning working on the burnley game

its not time to stand up and fight ? we have to match liverpool right up to the end of the season nor more slip ups
but i will say liverpool have to slip up somewhere down the line they are not super human. the back line and holding midfield is not as good they make out to be ? so could easy have a bad day or 2 just like city have had

Always enjoy beating the Dingles, be even sweeter now we really need it. Tough game after an international waste of time break, they'll make it tough but our quality hopefully sees us take the lead and dominate, but then I said that v Palace......

I wouldn't be surprised if either Stones or Dias were available, but if not it'll almost certainly be Laporte and Ake.

Gonna be interesting to see how the players react to starting this game in 2nd place (assuming Liverpool obviously beat Watford). I hope they don’t let the pressure get to them. Will be a very tough game but fancy us to win 2 1

Can see this being a draw unfortunately

Tough game and we'll be second going into it as Liverpool will beat Watford at Anfield.

I'd play Gundogan in midfield with Bernardo and Rodri letting KDB Foden and Sterling rotate.

I would leave Mahrez on the bench to rest up a little after his travels.

Mahrez has to play he is our only consistent goal scorer.
