I think most fans recognise there are arguments for and against going strong without resorting to slagging others off.

I'd go strong. There's no point chucking the competition at this stage, if so we would have been better doing that in the first round. With that in mind, I'd just make a couple of changes with Danilo and Bernardo coming in. If Dave's good to go he'd be in for Kev too - he put in an unbelievable performance against Spurs and we have to be careful of fatigue/injury with him more than any other.

Having said that, if we're genuinely going for all 4 competitions I reckon we need a centre back who has experience of playing left back and Sanchez in January or as others have said, we run the risk of blowing up.
 
If you're going to risk chucking a competition by playing a very weak side (not that anything we put out is very weak, but you know what I mean) then surely you do it in the early rounds? No point in throwing it away when there's only 4 games needed to lift the trophy, surely?
 
I think we should go something like

Bravo

Danilo Adarabioyo Mangala Zinchenko

Yaya

Gundogan Foden

Bernardo Jesus Diaz
 
Actually I'm changing my previous team to this.

Bravo

Danilo Kompany Mangala Zinchenko

Fernandinho

Bernardo Yaya Gundogan Foden

Jesus


I think with Fernandinho being one yellow away from a ban he will play as he will have a rest soon enough when his ban kicks in.
Kompany I think will play as Stones back soon and he wasn't badly injured, was more precaution and hes had his week off now.
Aguero has the heel issue so I see Jesus starting. Keep debating if we will play Sane or Foden. I will go with Phil and rest Leroy.
 
We have a world class team and squad, and the best manager going.

As for every game this season i’d Be trusting Pep to pick the right blend of senior and young players. He will want to WIN without a shadow of a doubt, and will put out a team that he thinks can achieve that.

Although this is the ‘4th Priority’ it is still silverware and it is the closest to win, ie 4 games away.

I can’t believe how many fans are still panicking regarding the league. We are so far ahead it would take a truly unbelievable turn of events to change it. Personally I think the points, goals scored, etc will be destroyed by this team. There is as much chance of a key player being injured in a PL match as training or this cup tie.

The data on players physical condition will be used to decide who gets rested and when.

Bravo, Danilo, Mangala, Bernardo and Jesus will likely start, I think the other 6 will be split between 1st team regulars and youth.
