Probably looking at United at home and thinking he can put any 11 out and still beat them!

In fairness he probably can

Why isn't Jesus part of *our strongest team*, given he is fresh and has scored more goals vs Liverpool than any other City player?

Your right would have him in place of Sterling

I sincerely hope he plays Fernie even if it's only for an hour. He was great when he came on against AM.

for me the front 3 has to be foden sterling jesus - that front 3 will press the liverpool back 4 all day and they dont like it...it has pace to get in behind and lots of work rate as well...

this what serves us well vs the scousers

midfield3 has to be bernardo, KDB and rodri - playing gundogan vs liverpool can cause an issue - he struggles with their intesity at times......but it all depends on the fitness of KDB

Back 4 - hopefully walker is fit as we need his pace and it allows cancello to play on the left where he is better.....

If Dias is fit to play id drop Laporte personally but that would be quite harsh potentially

Ederson in goal but im guessing Pep will play Steffan as a guess as he is the cup keeper.....if it goes to penalties he is potentially slightly better in this situation that Eddie but for the overall game and our build up Ederson is the obious choice

Just feel that the midweek battle will have taken it out of us.

Ederson
Egan Riley stones Dias cancelo
Bernardo foden rodri
Sterling Jesus grealish

maybe mahrez, but I’d save Fernandinho for later in the game


That’s what I’d do
No chance at all!

also I bet Alexander Arnold is ‘rested’

Pep might use Foden in midfield and Sterling in attack. Sterling is fit and fresh, might cause them problems with runs in behind if they want to play with a high line.

Don’t worry, normal feeling as a city fan…

You'd think i'd be over the typical City stuff but i never seem to be able to rid myself of it

On the train near some dippers who are at something they have seen on social media. Some dippers have stolen a sanitising station from a services and have it on their coach. Anyone seen anything about this? Vermin

Still won’t wash the blood they have on their hands.

He was left out Wednesday night along with that little weasel faced bastard Robertson so both nailed on to start.

No strongest team has Jesus and Sterling in.
