Champions League: All of Manchester enjoys European football tonight
A fixture not as easy as their neighbours, but certainly one they can be put to bed early inside the Etihad stadium.
We have to begin proceedings with… Yes, expecting crazy scenes at the Etihad tonight. While Liverpool and Chelsea steal all the attention, Man City continue to win.
The only reason Pep didn’t make it as far as Liverpool, is because he played Liverpool. This time it could be a completely different story, with many out there suggesting the champions could be focusing on the Champions League solely.
This leaves you to think, they will leave nothing to chance this term and treat this competition with more respect than the English Premier League. Kevin de Bruyne is still the only saw point, although, David Silva’s inclusion has been effortless and rewarding.
The team in blue from Manchester take on a talented side, who offer a reputable attack up front. A player who was heavily linked with a move to the Premier League, Nabil Fakir. He joins forces with ex-rivals of Man City, Memphis Depay and Rafael. Another mention is forward, Bertrand Traore.
Pep recently introduced Sane back into the team and has increased his options to pick from with him back. Man City will remain a threat no matter who’s in the starting 11. Stones missed out on the weekend, I foresee him rejoining the starting lineup tonight.
