Foden, Torres and mahrez have all put in eye catching performances this international break, all 3 of them needed that confidence boost, we just need at least one of them to carry that through into club form so we can hit our stride. Whether sterling is passed fit or not, he’s out of form, I’d be looking at giving him an extra week to get right and rely on those 3 for the width.

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Laporte
Cancelo
Fernandinho
Gundogan
Kdb
Foden
Torres
Jesus

Subs Steffen, stones, zinchenko, rodri, Bernardo, mahrez, sterling

We'll get terrorised in midfield with Gundogan and Dinho staggering about in there.Get Rodri and Bernie in the team.
 
Now we can think about picking the team for Saturday, think Pep will go with:

Ederson, Walker,Cancelo, Laporte, Stones, Rodri, Mahrez, Foden, B.Silva, Sterling?, Jesus

Subs: Steffen, Dias, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Doyle, Aguero?, Fernandinho?

Torres will be on the bench at least and I would like to think Pep will start him.

Why would Dias not start?
 
To be fair I don't think he was including Everton or Aston Villa in with the title contenders.

I think he just sees the title race as wide open but has no belief in City being the ones to do it. I was more shocked by the fact he actually thought City could finish 7th. I don't think there's any decent standing for that opinion.

Like I said, I think the press box, and the wider public has got a very distorted view of City at the moment. Maybe due to the game in hand dropping us down the table, maybe because we've not played well during the injury crisis and people hesitate to put 2+2 together and would rather look at a "Pep's overstayed" narrative.
It’s the hope that kills ‘em.
 
Anyone that writes City off in this match is deluding themselves.

Could be a fairly high scoring game. Both teams have better attacks than defence.

Got a feeling we (Spurs) will nick it but my predictions are generally terrible.
Interesting take regarding our defence. Since the 5-2 against Leicester we’ve played 9 games and only conceded 4 goals, only 1 goal in the last 4 which, for me, was never a penalty.
