Aguero looks a different animal to lay season.. If he tempted to go with Bernardo in mid with Fernandiho and Sterling. Then Sane left, Aguero centre and Mahrez right. Silva pace worries me more than losing his attacking skill in this fixture.
 
I don't usually say this but I'd take a draw now lol.

Seriously tho they're always more up to it than us or so it seems. We need to have strong minds, don't give the ball away & just play our game.

Hoping 1 of Delph or Mendy are fit I don't fancy Salah running at Laporte, I wouldn't start Sterling either.

Ederson

Walker Kompany Laporte Mendy

Stones Fernandinho

B.Silva D.Silva Sane

Aguero

Come on City.
 
Liverpool looked tired last night, but they always seem to find a bit extra when they play us so not going to read too much into that.

I did wonder whether Guardiola might play three at the back, similar to the league game at The Etihad last season, but Napoli's wide players caused them problems so I think we'll play with wingers in the usual 4-3-3. Originally thought that we should start Mahrez ahead of Sterling, just because he always struggles at Anfield, but have changed my mind. He should start, and will hopefully have a point to prove.

If we can survive the inevitable early onslaught then we've got a decent chance, but would definitely take a point right now.

Totally agree - If we could get a point or even three, what a marker we'll lay down, also considering we haven't really played at our best and that KDB been out the majority of the games.
 
Sterling has to start. He's been one of our best players this season, is banging them in for fun and is generally in great form. The idea that we don't play one of our best players because he'll get booed is madness, he's a big boy. He's a big boy that also wants circa 200k-per-week so it's about time this was all put to bed

On top of that, Aguero hasn't had a good game there in 8 years, should we drop him? No, if anyone was wondering
 
I'm convinced if we beat them on Sunday after the Napoli loss their wheels will fall off with dramatic effect. I simply can't see them mounting a serious challenge without Salah getting back to last season's level and two defeats on the bounce will be heart breaking for them. So in short if Salah doesn't turn up on Sunday we've won the league.....or maybe not
 
Liverpool could get hammered 5-0 the day before we were due to play them and I'd still not be anymore confident of a win there.

Fingers Crossed.
