That line up... Hmm

I think the first goal will be important, Southampton are good on the break. With the City back line there could be plenty of space left for counters, mainly behind Koralov and Demi. I wouldn't be surprised if they at some point instruct mane to exploit the space Koralov will leave. If they get the first goal they might get a 2nd while City look for that equaliser. However if City get that first I can't see them loosing if they keep it professional and be wary of the counter at 1-0 up.

What's your point

What's your point

Only thing I see wrong with this is playing both Koralov and Demi in the same back four with Willy behind them. Both of them are prone to getting caught out and leaving lots of space behind them while not having the pace to recover.

Looks good to me. Yaya off after an hour for Dave. Aguero for Kelechi and Sterling for Navas.

Most creative player out of position again to accommodate Toure, hope he has a good performance or he'll be getting more grief.

We've had 1 good match in this formation surrounded by many poor matches, so would rather have seen 4-2-3-1 with Navas starting instead of one of the midfielders but hey-ho.

That's enough negatives though, no reason why we can't win this & start getting back on track.

C'mon City.

How can you possibly call subs before a ball is kicked...

What's if Yaya is running the show, what's if Sterlings pace is causing havoc to Southamptons back four.

COME ON BLUEBOYS

Sorry but Toure should not be starting. What will it take for him to get dropped??

 

[Cellarite]

FFS Navas!!!

 

[FantasyIreland]

Their forward line will be licking their lips at our defence but hopefully Delph and Fern can do their stuff and cover the ground.Yaya appears undroppable.
