I can’t see him being keen on playing anyone who has played 2 games in the last 3/4 days but will have to gamble on one or two I think.

Ederson, Rodri, De Bruyne, Jesus, Mahrez, Laporte all nailed on to play for me.

if I had to guess on the rest

Walker
Dias
Cancelo
Bernado
Sterling

 

[Akpowell]

Welll after that I think it needs to be Laporte and Dias
Stones might need to sort his head for a few days.

If he's not picked it could knock his confidence

 

[MarsLlama]

Rather face Kelechi than Maddison

Really? I wouldn't. Unless one of his twenty long shots a game happens to go in, we'll be fine against him.

Well one is a striker while the other is a midfielder. Maddison influences the game a lot more than Kelechi and is a much better footballer.

 

[richards30]

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Laporte
Zinchenko
Rodri
De Bruyne
Gundogan
Foden
Bernardo Silva
Mahrez

Assume Maddison's return means Kelechi will be taking his place on the bench once again for however many months it is until Maddison's next big injury. Shame for Kelechi but great news for us.

Rodgers changed their formation to a 3 4 1 2 when their form started to slide and it has worked tbf to him. Maddison will play in behind kelechi and vardy in place of Perez who has been playing that role previously

 

[DMA's]

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Laporte
Zinchenko
Rodri
De Bruyne
Gundogan
Foden
Bernardo Silva
Mahrez

Don’t think foden starts after his busy international break same with gundogan and zinchenko. Also no chance at least one of Jesus or aguero don’t start as both have had 2 weeks off. Expect team to be something like

ederson

cancelo
Garcia (stones needs a rest and ake is left footed)
dias
laporte
mendy

fern
kdb

mahrez
jesus
aguero

similar formation to the Fulham game and allows a lot of rest prior to Dortmund

 

[hihosilva]

I'm sure Pep will prioritise the Dortmund game & take into account players game time over the international period.

I would expect something like.
Ederson
Walker Laporte Ake Mendy
Debruyne Fernandinho Bernardo
Marhez Jesus Torres

Garcia went terribly the last time we played these. No chance

Swap him for rodri and you may be right

Not sure he will. He is often said the most important game is the next one.
