If the squad stays as it is, what is our strongest 11?

Hart
Sagna, Kompany, Stones, Clichy
Fernandinho, Gundogan
De Bruyne, Yaya, Silva
Aguero
 
Assuming "fit and firing" the best "Pep" team would be:

Hart
Zabaleta Kompany Stones Angelinho
Gungodan KdB Fernandinho
Sterling Aguero Sane

I would be happy to swap KdB for a fit Silva or Yaya and I think that Pep will want Kun flanked by two speedsters and attacking full backs.
 
Alright poppet, when I started writing my reply half watching TV, he hadn't been mentioned in the thread. By the time I'd replied he was in a couple.
He's in the first post...

Also cool to see predicted teams but I am surprised so many predict 4 atb.

I think we'll see 3 defenders a lot and Pep loves his wide men so would expect Sane/Sterling/Nolito to play in the majority of games.
 
------------------Hart
Zabaleta-Stones-Kompany-Angelino
-------Gundogan-Fernandinho
---------------De Bruyne
Sane---------Aguero-----Sterling

Feel like Zabs attacking intelligence and work rate just have him pip Sagna who was excellent last season & Angelino will be the youngster pep brings into the first team this season with Clichy acting as a back up and mentor.

So hard leaving Silva out but Pep will want pace on the wings, and KDB will be player of the season.
 
I wouldn't be surprised if Silva is used in a different position and slightly deeper in an Iniesta style role, allowing for more of a 433.

A Barca fan at work said it the other day and I like the idea of it. That kind of setup would also explain why we aren't after any more midfielders.
 
Hart
Stones vinny fernandinho
Sane gundogan davenport kdb

Take your pick

But if fit the following will play the majority of games

Stones
Kompany
Fernandinho
Gondungan
Super Kev
Aguero

We all know the full backs will rotate unless he plays a back 3 but I can't see that happening now .

Then it's another two from the following

Sterling
Sane
Nolita
Sidewards
Yaya

Depending on who are playing etc..,

Anyway Kompany , Super Kev and Aguero stay fit we will win it
 
Tough, but I'd probably say:
------------------Hart------------
Sagna--Kompany--Stones--Clichy
--------------Fernandinho----------
--------Silva----------Gundogan---
-Sane------------------------De Bruyne
---------------Aguero----------------

As an alternative (and in a system Bayern played at least a couple of times last season), I'd be interested to see:

-----------------Hart----------------
----Stones--Kompany--Clichy----
-----Fernandinho--Gundogan----
Sane------Silva------De Bruyne--Sterling
----------------Aguero--------------
 
-----------------Hart------------------
Sagna--Stones--Otamendi--Clichy
-----Gundogan--Fernandinho-----
Sane----------Silva-----------KDB
--------------Aguero---------------
