That's going to be very close to the team. There could be a debate to be had over left back (Danilo?) and I agree that it's time for Liverpool to 'feel the Bern'. His ball control will be important in this first leg. I can't see Liverpool being too adventurous because they will fear our counter attack, so I imagine we will dominate possession.

As evidenced last night, this City team has something special about it. Also Liverpool have a real problem with their goalkeepers. Neither inspire confidence. City 2-1.

Lee Dixon was asked his thoughts yesterday about who would go through, his response, well Liverpool are excellent going forward and now they've become more defensively solid so if anyone can they can.
Oh, I see where we've been going wrong all season then!!

away goal is vital, and as long as we are bang in the tie after 90 mins, i'll take it given our record there. anything more positive and it maybe party time

Hard to believe he grew up a City fan. Another pundit said Liverpool have had the best attack this season. Not based on the goals in the league and their cup performances Champions League aside.

I wouldn't be unhappy with this but I'd still rather have Aguero and Sterling in over Jesus and Bernardo.

Can someone add a poll please. Think for the first time in a while the results of a poll would actually be interesting.

Sterling shits himself at klanfield and Jesus will be better for the press away from home

I think Sterling would be just fine. Jesus is better for the press but Aguero for ball retention. As I said, I wouldn't be unhappy with either though.
