Pep Guardiola: "You know I try to involve all the players, I rotate all the players to keep everyone involved and fit for all the competitions. We need everyone. In the next two games, I'll play as many players as possible, not because of Monchengladbach

Could be a few changes by the sounds of it.

Gonna be tough without Mr Whippy. Will have to find a solution in there that doesn't stunt us going forward or backwards.

Wouldn't play Foden in there as he is really unaffective in there when starting from that position. Needs to be kept on the wing for now for me.

Everton had a really tough game against Spurs, you can see they still hadn't recovered at the weekend (a bit like Spurs). Considering they played at the weekend, it will be hard for them to have recovered by now. I think the same plan we executed against Spurs will be on the menu here, take them into deep water with short passing that constantly keeps them moving.

Agreed. I do like Ancelotti though. I think he'll know this and perhaps why he rested a few key players against Fulham. Unfortunately for him and Everton it backfired big time. Now he has to hope his players can keep constantly shuffling across the field for the whole 90 mins. Ilkay will be a miss but I think we can cope. Have to be watchful of their front two of course but I think Stonesy and Ruben will handle them fine. Remember we hate giving up goals.

Well one of there front two is out so should be a little easier
