Imo, no chance that Pep makes 5-6 changes. 2-3 changes max, maybe not even 2.

Win the league and then rotate heavily vs Brighton and Brentford.

Should be the plan mate!

I can't find an appropriate thread and don't want to start a new one...

Is the new kit released tomorrow for purchase? Gonna take the little lad down to the etihad tomorrow and get it if so

Possibly Foden, Mahrez & maybe Alverez come in.

Thought KDB and Haaland both looked shattered towards the end last night so won’t be surprised if they were rested

4 nights and 3.5 days are enough for Haaland to be fully rested and play normally and for KDB to play at least 70 good minutes.

We need them in this game! While Chelsea has this season an abysmal team, their players are top notch and because many times in City games opponents get a sudden resurrection, we must be as serious as we were on the Real M. game yesterday.

Doubt KDB plays, I’m expecting a very similar team to the Everton game. Which should be more than enough to beat Chelsea.

Kev was dead on his feet. It was visible. Must be rested.

Been given the chance to wrap the league up 2 weeks before the FA cup final, there's no way Pep will drop the chance to have it sewn up on Sunday.

I think we'd beat them making 3 or 4 changes, but expect the same team as last night, perhaps with Mahrez in for De Bruyne and Bernardo and Gundogan supporting Haaland through the middle.

Would love to absolutely do these twats. Imagine it, embarrass them then lift the trophy they’re lightyears away from.

This game should not be taken lightly.....as poor as Chelsea have been they have some very good players who can still cause us problems...we can obviously cause them problems but football has a way of kicking you in the arse when you least expect it!

Play the strongest team possible and just get it won......time for rest after this game if we do our job
