City V Everton pre-match thread.

Is Besic injured?

Yes, him and Mirallas have been confirmed to miss the game.

what about mccarthy and jaglieka?? will they miss too?

 

[the_game_161]

No Mirallas is a blow for them

 

[kunaguero10]

Nothing against Sagna — he's had a fine season — but Zab in for this one. In the absence of Vinny he is the best natural leader in the team.

He's much more attacking too.

Caballero
Zab
Otamendi
Demichelis
Clichy
Fernandinho
Delph
Silva (right midfield - good linkup with Zab)
KDB (number 10)
Sterling
Aguero

Wouldn't be against Iheanacho starting instead of Sterling though, and I would have no hesitation about going to 442 as early as halftime if things aren't working out.

It was 0-0 two weeks ago.

hopefully we can build on this newfound resilience we've discovered again (unbeaten in six in the league now) and take advantage of the fact that Howard is unlikely to play.

Caballero
Zabaleta - Otamendi - Demichelis - Clichy
Yaya Toure - Fernandinho
Navas - Silva - Sterling
Aguero

Hart, Sagna, Angelino, Fernando, Delph, De Bruyne, Iheanacho.

Fernando or Delph for Yaya. And I believe that's the team Pellars puts out. It will make sense if he did

 

[Blueknows]

No Mirallas is a blow for them

And Besic who is key to their midfield

 

[Hungarian blue]

And Besic who is key to their midfield

He was probably their best performer in both of our recent games, and McCarthy is just returning from an injury if I'm correct, so hopefully Yaya will have it a bit easier in dictating the midfield play this time...

 

[bluemoon98]

All the players seem to be willing the fans to get to the ground and make some noise.

Otamendi getting involved now
