On current performances & work rate Kun should be 'rested'. If that happens Kev must be pushed forward & central to support Kelachi,with Razza & Nolito & Merlin creating.
Work rate key against these road runners !!

............................Bravo

Sterling........Fernando.....Yaya.............Nolito

Mix it up a little. I think Kelechi and Nolito need to start, plus Nolito gives better balance on the left - Sterling is wasted there.
Probably a bit slow and immobile with Yaya and Fernando, but can't keep playing Fernandinho.
Gives us good options from the bench with Kun, Sane, Gundogan and De Bruyne.
Not too sure about the 'play Aguero into form' thinking. Give him a rest and go from there.
We were bastard horrible the last time we played Burnley at Turf Moor.
It won't be easy again despite their recent 4-0 loss to a poor WBA side.

Despite enjoying over 80% possession City drop two more points in a disappointing goalless draw.
Many fans blame BT / The Premier League for giving us the first game of the weekend after our exertions abroad on Wednesday night
Others blame Andre Marriner for failing to award that nailed-on pen
The players give the appearance of running in treacle, particularly De Bruyne and Silva, who look knackered
Particular concerns are raised for the strangely ineffective Kun Aguero, who, in an effort to get on the ball more, keeps dropping deep to leave six Burnley defenders to mark zero attackers as we probe from out wide
Even Yaya cannot rally the troops this time and is withdrawn just after the hour mark

No Captain material in the squad right now. We need leaders in games like this.

If Zaba is in the starting line up we will be all right, he makes a great Captain but you are right there is no one else now. We did have two others, one is injured and the other we've scored an own goal on!!!! ;-)

just listened to the North West Tonight game preview , and all they went on about is the City billionaires , they didnt mention that little penniless Burnley beat the £750m Dipper team or the billion pound Rag team (with the highest wage bill in world sport) when they got a draw at the swamp. The pre-match for both these games never mentioned the money , BBC at Salford Quays is full of dickhead Rags maybe someone should tell the ****s to put their allegiances aside , i was under the assumption that as a publicly funded organisation they were supposed to be impartial .
Naga Munchetty veered well off script this morning on BBC Breakfast, after numerous intro's to Russell Watson's interview, describing him as a rag lover, Naga replied " Well yes, he is from Salford " !
God bless you girl !

for my sanity, please could you list the howlers as I am obviously not quite seeing them. I note one, possibly two at most. Being serious btw
v the Rags in his first game for starters when he gifted Zlatan a goal. Then there was Barcelona. Also, his poor clearance against Gladbach nearly cost us a goal. Not saying he's a bad keeper. I want him to do well for us, and if he saves us more points than he gives away, then I'll be more than happy.
