Big win tonight lads! Squad should be fresh having only played 1/3 of the season

Re Kompany: I would probably also stick with Otamendi & Mangala atm even if I don't rate Ota very highly. I think it's too dangerous to mess up the increasing level of understanding between them at such a crucial point in the season. There's no guarantee that Kompany's return will last this time until the end of the season. so I'd agree to start playing him only when business time is over (CL-exit + Top 4 spot secured).

On a general note, I'm afraid tonight's game will be a lot tougher than Saturday's. The barcodes will be absolutely desperate for a result so City need to be 100% focused from start to finish and unfortunately that hasn't always been City's strong point ...

So quite negatively, I'm expecting a 2-2 draw at best. De Bruyne & Sergio to score.

Regarding Vinnie, I agree with you and @bellsouth that we shouldn't be tinkering at this stage. Ota & Eli are developing a partnership which is showing positive signs.

I agree but mp will put vinny back in,probably tonite,the question is who will he keep in,my guess is he favours nico over mangler

i wouldn't rest any players bar maybe swapping fernandinho for fernando.

This will be an interesting off season discussion, particularly if pep wants to establish a solid and dependable foundation at the back.
