We go strong
Stones deserves his place
I have a feeling Pep will rest Dias and play Laporte

...............Ederson
Walker....Stones...Laporte... Mendy
................Gundogan
...KDB..........................Foden
Mahrez.......Jesus........Sterling

We'll win 5-2

Ederson
Walker Laporte Stones Mendy
KDB Foden Gundogan
Mahrez Jesus Sterling

We need a fast start, with a good tempo like last week. Fully expect Fulham to pack the defence, so an early City goal please.

If Foden was to start, it would have been wise to have subbed him after 60 mins in Porto. More likely he will come off the bench on Saturday, as per usual. Mahrez & Jesus will start.

Interesting to see all the 433 formations people are predicting.

I'm not saying it won't be, but seems like Pep favours the 442 right now, curious if he goes 433 again.

I searched thread looking for your lineup :). Wanted to see if you'd caved to all this new found love our boy is getting.


I'm happy bto report you stood your ground. Not having it :)

I would be very surprised to see this.

1. I have to assume Laporte gets this game, Pep has to give him a chance.

2. Pep doesnt seem to trust playing Foden with KdB as 8s.

3. I think Walker plays to balance Mendys with on left, but you never know.

All players in better form,and work their nuts off (I still dont trust mahrez) but i hear you.

Yorkshire used to be full of great records hops. Will head on over once it is safe to do so. Thanks for posting.

I'm from West Yorkshire originally but haven't been back for a while. Used to love "Crash" and "Jumbo" in Leeds.
