Well I think this is a fairly well trodden argument which can be had across four different threads in here. I like Gundogan and I'd play him on Saturday, in a different starting 11 from the one midweek. It's obviously not that ridiculous an opinion to hold as the manager seems to like him too.

There must be a good few clueless people so. Delph is not a better option than Zinchenko
Including guardiola ?

Hopefully the only bother we’ll have tomorrow is finding somewhere to park our coach. Oh wait...
To use him instead of who? Pep's job is not the youth team development!
It fucking well is.

I fear for our players safety with Neil wanker in charge. No doubt he'll be instructing his players to stop us any way they can. His post game interview last season condoning their physical challenges was tantamount to thuggery, any repeat of that and he should be struck off as a manager by the FA.

I can't see him leaving Stones out personally, he had a break last weekend. If Otamendi doesn't play he will wonder what he has to do after last week, when he played very well. As you say its almost impossible to pick a Pep team, I just hope Gundogan doesn't start.
Gundogan not starting ever again as a number 8 is absolutely essential now.
Sané has to start after that performance on Wednesday, surely?
Otamendi was brilliant last week, again against and aggressive Cardiff you'd assume he should get a run.
As the other poster said earlier, we really lacked Kompany's leadership on Wednesday and I think I'd probably go with him in this game.
I think our biggest problem on Wednesday was that no one was running in behind. Jesus, Bernado and Sterling all wanted the ball to feet. There was loads of times where Dave was ready to put people in, but no one wanted to make a run. That's why one of Sané or Aguero has to be on the pitch at all times for me. Preferably both.

One of two things will happen. Either we continue stuck in second gear and this will be a tight difficult game with a single goal victory on either side or Sane will rip them a new one and we win comfortably. I hope for the latter but suspect the former.

Go on, I'll bite.
Why ?
Fernandinho played well against Fulham after a two week break but was poor against Lyon.
If Fernandinho is physically at it then it's no question he starts but 3 games in 7 days, after his lethargic start to the season, it's a no from me.
Gundogon doesn't do it for me in the advanced midfield role, his movement isn't great, however his spell when stepping in for Fern last season was great. His passing from deep helped our tempo, and his positioning is good when teams counter on us; made quite a few interceptions.
So a weary Fern against Cardiff? No thanks. Gondogon will in my opinion be better for now, but not necessarily all the time.
