Last time we started with Fernandinho, Gundogan, De Bruyne and Silva together was the Carabao Cup final I think, and it didn't work particularly well then until Guardiola changed it after the break.

Never has. Gives the illusion that we should dominate midfield, but in reality we lose legs as Gundogan is half as hard working as Silva/De Bruyne & then crams up our play forcing someone outwide who is usually more effective centrally.

Guess the hope is it gives us enough bodies to nullify them at the start as they'll likely be pretty pumped & hectic from the kick off. Personally would've stuck to what works & have faith we're the better side & it would've shown.

I think the packing of the midfield will limit the supply to Salah.

We dominate with our usual 3, we usually seem less dominant when these 4 all play somehow - we'll definitely need to double up on Salah when he's on the ball.

Why didn't we just turn up hours before and negated this hostile crowd?

Because then the players would have been sat in a pokey dressing room for an extra two hours twiddling their thumbs. And we would have looked soft
