Really strong team please,phil and eric jnr and the rest first choices,i will slap baldy on his head if he plays juliet

Players almost guaranteed to start the game: Ederson, Walker, Dinho, Mendy, Rodri, Mahrez, Kevin, Bernie, Jesus, Sterling.

Is the 11th player going to be a defender (Garcia/Stones) or a midfielder (Gundy/Foden)? We won't probably play only with Rodri and Dinho at CB. So Garcia/Stones likely to start. Or Walker at CB due to his pace and Cancelo at RB.

It will be Bravo, as it should be.

Has he ever not picked the back up keeper for a domestic cup game (when available)?

I think Bravo will start.

 

[Zenmanc]

No Bravo
The guys an absolute disaster.

He hasn't lost a step... He's lost a flight of steps.

Agree with this but think we might need Bernie's energy and ability to press.

Don’t think so, think the only time in recent history was Hart. It isn’t just whether Bravo should be treated with respect or whether he is good enough. There is a fair chance we will be looking to sign a number two in the summer what signal does it send out if they see the present number two discarded as it suits. I’d be very surprised if Pep went against Bravo now.

That’s the team I think City will play based on who started the Vale game.

If Aguero was going to start, I think he would have come off after an hour or so
