Vincent Kompany, David Silva and Fernandinho all took part in open training on Monday ahead of the Real Madrid Champions League semi-final first leg, but there was no sign of Yaya Toure at CFA.

Manuel Pellegrini's men went through their paces on a chilly morning in Manchester ahead of Tuesday's night's last four game at the Etihad Stadium.

Fernandinho and Vincent Kompany were rested for the 4-0 win over Stoke, but should come back into contention, while fans will be pleased that David Silva - who went straight down the tunnel after coming off against the Potters - was with the squad for final preparations.

Seems to make more sense starting Navas with a view to bringing on Sterling around the hour mark. Sterling looked nowhere near ready when he came on against the bar codes. Navas is super fit and is probably one of small number of our players who can play 3 games a week on an on-going basis.

Glad it's not just me then.

Thanks Karen for your information.
David Silva always goes straight down the tunnel at the end of very game. I was told it was to have an ice/cold bath but that could be wrong.
 
Quick question for anyone ITK, will those in champions league cup scheme likely get tickets for the final. Reason I ask is cheapest I can find for final on Internet is £2750 for 2.
 
Was Clichy back in training? Don't want Kolarov anywhere near the team against Real.

This would also be my team. I reckon Pellers will go with Silva instead of Sterling though. You tactical approach is also spot on :-)

Thanks bud, I did apply before Pep but I presume my CV was lost in the ****ing ticket office mess or something..

I agree he will play Silva, hence him coming off on Saturday. But I cant figure out why he wouldnt play Raheem on Saturday if he wasnt going to start Tuesday
We shall see!
