So who starts upfront on Sunday?

[MCFC BOB]

I'd like to keep it the same.

Why change a winning team?

Dzeko and Aguero for me. Linked well last night and Dzeko's height is an advantage for headers / knockdowns.

Because each game is different. Just because a team comfortably beat Swansea at home, doesn't mean it's the right team to play Bolton away. Actually, thinking about it, due to Bolton's set-piece threat, i can see Kolarov starting over Clichy for an extra bit of height. Plus we have an injury to De Jong, so can't select the same side! Then there's general squad rotation and keeping everyone happy. Last season, Bacon Face finally ended his run of selecting a changed team for about 150 consecutive games. It's not done them any harm.

That's true.

But I was using the 'why fix what isn't broken?' approach.

If there are no injury problems, then name the same team.....

 

[poyntonblue]

Hopefully they won't have a skip load of rubbish strewn across the pitch to stop us playing our passing game.

Other than that I can see him making two changes. Kolorov for Clichy (height) and Milner for De Jong. Don't know why just a feeling with Aguero coming off the bench.

Hope I'm wrong and he starts alongside Dzeko!

Start Balotelli for Johnno. And then let Aguero come on as a sub to destroy the tired defenders.
