City vs. Borussia Mönchengladbach pre-match thread

[Tugay One Cup]

Can Pep change his nominated starting 11 from last night, if he chooses to?

Don't be daft, of course he can. It will end up costing £10,000 or so for UEFA's troubles but that goes without saying.

Thanks for the TV confirmation - much appreciated

Navas has assisted two game-winning goals this season and won the free kick from which Aguero scored our second vs Stoke- not been amazing but our record wouldn't be nearly as impressive without him. Also played a big part in our winning CO cup run last season. If Pep thinks Navas should start you won't hear me complaining- plus he has the Champions League experience which Nolito has lacked in recent years.

Hope we don't ignore Bournemouth at home- should be one of the best chances to pick up points we'll get all season and if we can go unbeaten the first 8 league games that puts us in a very good position for the title. Beating the rags has put them in fourth too. Unfortunately none of our top 4 contenders have hard games at the weekend apart from Chelsea/Liverpool.

2 matchdays in a row! Yes, only one of them featured a match but that's irrelevant.

Looking forward to this one. Hopefully get a good win strongest team possible.

Played superbly against BMG last season as well coming off the bench when we were losing.

Looking forward to seeing Bravo

The team was

------------Bravo
Zab-Stones-Ota-Kola
---Silva-Fernandinho
Navas---KDB--Sterling
----------Aguero

I thought we'd rest quite a few. Even less reason to do so now.

I'd bring in Zaba for Kolarov on the right, after all, we are entitled to use 11 players and it's a bit unfair to expect Kolarov to play both full back positions.

Thanks

Someone posted yes last night which seems correct.

Thanks.
A bit expensive though.
