——————————Ederson (if fit)
Walker——Stones———Otamendi———Mendy
——————————Fernandinho
——————-kdb———————Bernardo
Cancelo—————————————————Sterling
———————————Aguero

That’s what I want to see. Fernandinho in his natural position is a must for me otherwise it will be like lambs to the slaughter for whoever plays centre back. If gundogan plays there we will turnover the ball so many times and suffer badly. Bernardo is needed in the centre with no silva and mahrez hasn’t done anything for weeks and doesn’t have the fight needed for anfield so cancelo right wing infront of Walker. That’s what I want to see but In reality I Fully expect to see Fernandinho at cb, gundogan holding and mahrez or Jesus out wide with sterling.

I agree, save for Mahrez for Cancelo - and i thought both of them did ok tonight. Can't wait for Sunday - if we can frustrate them for a while, you never know........

Last year we played 2 deep midfielders-before that they were v successful pressing Ferny. If he's not banned Bernie will play deep next to Ferny or Gundogan.
 
Team for Sunday..? Well I'd be happy with this setup...

Fernandhino in defensive midfield plus any x10 others
 
100% Gundogan will start Sunday. Whether he should or not is another matter
 
I'd play Kyle and Stones as centre backs, put Fern back into his best position at defensive midfield, Cancello and Mendy full backs, Kev and Bernardo in midfield, with Raz on the right Kun in the middle and Mahrez on the left. Kyle's pace in the middle could snub the dippers counter attacking, but more importantly it releases Fern to dictate the play.

Swap Bernie for Mahrez, and stick Foden in the middle, and that’s spot on. Can’t see it happening though
 
We’re going to get smashed on Sunday unfortunately but hopefully the team is:

Ederson
Walker
Stones
Otamendi
Angelino
Fernandinho
De Bruyne
Bernardo Silva
Mahrez
Sterling
Aguero
 
Potentially without Ederson, Laporte, Zinchenko, Rodri, Silva, Sane. Most if not all of them would have started against them on Sunday...imagine if they were missing six key players
