Is there a case for playing Walker right back and playing Cancello in midfield, where he played for much of yesterday's natch. I know we never look good with 3 at the back but against teams that like to play on the break with speedy forwards, we need Walker. Cancello, although still good, is not so assured on the left.

Walker? Really? Where have you been??
 
We've had 3 good wins so let's build on that and get 3 points against these, will be a tough game but I feel positive.

Everton will probably come out and play against us which will make a refreshing change, I fancy us for a win if they do, mind you I think we will win every game so Nostradamus I ain't.

We won't come out and play. Too many injuries and too knackered.

Expect a low block and us trying to nick a goal on the counter or set piece.

This is what we did for the wins against Chelsea, Leicester and Arsenal in recent weeks.
 
This is stating the obvious, but what a big week coming up.

Beat Everton & Chelsea and we'll likely be about 3rd & on as good a run as anyone.

Win neither & we could be 10th / mid table ... and low on confidence going into the League Cup semi.
 
I think having to play twice in 48 hours will be a much bigger problem for Everton than us

especially as we didn’t get out of 2nd gear yesterday

Agreed. Even though we have a superior squad I wouldn’t make too many changes here. 2-3 players max like you said we were comfortable yesterday while Everton were not and have more injuries.

Mahrez or Foden for Bernardo, maybe Aguero for Torres. Possibly Fernandinho but not more than that imo.
 
Very tough away game but I expect us to come away with three points.stick our chances away and that defence will take good care of us at the other end. Enjoy the football from this magnificent Manchester City team blues everywhere
 
Do they always make game day posters out of players not likely to start the game?

At least they didn’t put Walker or Jesus on that next to Richarlson ...

Pep is going to rotate without question, Mendy, Laporte, Mahrez ect that didn't play yesterday will more than likely play tomorrow night.

Maybe Foden might even get a game for a change!

This is a must win game. We won't see much rotation.
