Lee Mason is the ref. So no doubt a few yellow cards. Going with a 2 nil win and Sergio scoring again.

Nil you say? Hmmm

The league has gone so lets go gungho for the champs league. Give Dinho (my hero) a rest and Razza (another fav of mine) a much needed rest too over next 2-3 weeks and then go all out for the last10 weeks. Welcome Laporte and Sane back and as a first 11 were as good as anyone. With a very strong bench to back up too.

If we play with Sterling and Gundogan we`ll struggle

 

[Sergio<3]

3 or 4 changes just for the sake of it, 10 clear chances, 1-1 FT. Story of our season unfortunately, hope I'm wrong

It’s getting to the point where the only defender I want starting is Kyle Walker. Fernandinho has to go back into his best position (He hasn’t been the problem before anyone starts). This is gonna be a tough game but fuck it. I wanna see Ederson; Walker Garcia Otamendi Mendy. Fernandinho De Bruyne Bernardo Mahrez Jesus Aguero

Fair enough

Hi everyone, I subscribed last year but I had never commented, I just liked reading your posts.
Here is my lineup:

Ederson
Walker
Otamendi
Fernandinho
ZINCHENKO (we miss his quality, Mendy is not at a top level now)
Rodri
KDB
Bernardo
Mahrez
Aguero
G. Jesus

Ugh, probably my least favourite referee in the league. Team has to be:

Ederson
Walker
Otamendi
Fernandinho
Mendy
Rodri
B Silva
De Bruyne
Mahrez
Jesus
Aguero

Whist I like it, I can't see it, it means playing Jesus on the left, and he seems reluctant to do that, I'd go back to 3 at the back that we were doing well with, and I'm a long time moaner about 3 at the back, but it was working, and the change on Saturday clearly didn't.

Similar line-up/formation to the one at Villa, just with Walker instead of Cancelo, Otamendi for Stones and Bernardo for David Silva. I gave up on trying to second guess Pep a long time ago though!

You are wrong. Just because you have no idea why and what changes are likely, in your opinion it's just for the sake of it. Becoming typical of our fan base

Agreed, Zinchenko has to come in.

 

[PragueBlue]

Ederson - Walker, Stones, Fernandinho, Mendy - Rodrigo, KDB, Bernardo - Jesus, Aguero, Mahrez

 

[leighton]

So hard to predict any team now.

Ederson
Walker , Fernandinho , Otamendi , Mendy
Rodrigo , KDB , Foden ,
Jesus , Aguero , Mahrez

Just think Sterling has gone off the boil a bit at the moment need him sharp for Madrid. Defence is so hard to predict. I think if Laporte is ready Fernandinho would be pushed up to his midfield roll and we would try the Laporte and Stones together. I honestly dont think Fernandhino is the answer wish we could take 1 of there players in our centre back pairing John Egan or Jack O Connell would be a better option than what we have.

Go there, win & win well.

Come On City!!!

Think Dinho will definitely partner Laporte until the end of the season as Pep rates him there more than calamity one and two.
