That’s the same team I posted earlier. Think we are better off starting with that and then bringing on Jesus for a defender early in the second half if things aren’t going right. We’d then have Sane, Jesus, Aguero, Sterling all on at the same time. Think this would be more effective than starting with those 4 of subbing on Sterling for example.

we might. walker played quite well in a back 3 for england. i think we should just go for it. its risky, but we dont have a choice. id rather ply stones and laporte because they are betters passers and the others are out of form as well.

I hate the notion that Peps selection yesterday was somehow responsible for our failure to win. That 1st half vindicated his selection. The use of a false nine caused absolute havoc, the rags didn't know who to mark. Raheem was incredible bar the two sitters. The only ones to blame are the players, in particular Sterling, Gundogan, Kompany and Otamendi. BUT. we win as a team and we lose as a team. Come on city

I think I’d rather see a 3-6-1/3-2-4-1 formation with Bernardo & maybe even Gundogan in the side.

Ederson
Walker, Otamendi, Laporte
Fernandinho, Gundogan
B Silva, De Bruyne, D Silva, Sane
Aguero

Why no Fernandinho we need KDB as far forward as we can.

I'll be honest I haven't got a bloody clue how this is going to go

I've given up trying to second guess Pep.

Since Wednesday I've seen the following:

City v Liverpool. LOST
City EDS v West Ham EDS LOST
City v United Inexplicably LOST
My sons Under 15s Cup Final LOST

I can't take a 5th defeat on the bounce it will be like the 90s all over again

Think Laporte be good in front of our back four
