City XI | Bravo, Danilo, Mangala, Adarabioyo, Zinchenko, Bernardo, Toure, Sterling, Gündoğan, Agüero (C), Jesus.

Subs | Ederson, Walker, Stones, De Bruyne, Delph, Sané, Nmecha

Good to see a few changes.

Sterling Aguero & Jesus are going to run riot tonight.

Really good save from Bravo, a one on one from Mangala error.

I think I have jinxed it with the run riot comment.

Hopefully we can score in the second half!!

Another good one on one save from a different Bravo from the one we saw last year.

We are not attacking their bye line on both wings enough and when we do soft crosses are the outcome.

Now I remember why we needed to get rid of Mangala.

Toure, Managala and Jesus not played well.

Bravo one on one again saves our arse. YET AGAIN

Aguero nowhere near his best tonight, taking his usual 5 games to get up to speed after an injury.

That is a dress rehearsal for Dec 10 (The Rags) who will also park the bus, only they will take at least one of the three one on one breakaway chances that Wolves enjoyed.

Penalty shootout it is then.

C'mon City and well done Wolves.

TBF to Bravo, I had him down as MOTM before the penalty saves.

This counts as a win right...

Stupid arse TV commentator thought Aguero's shoot-out penalty counted for the record. Where do they find these numpties?

What have we learned tonight?

Yaya's fucked
Zinchenko is not a left back and he's slower than Yaya
Mangala is dog shit
Silva Mark 2 is not even close to Silva Mark 1
Bravo might actually be a goalkeeper

Finally, something to moan about
Pepe has alluded to the fact that he see's the cups as distractions, he doesnt like them (especially this mickey mouse cup that the rags are so proud of winning)
So why isnt he playing the kids ffs
How will the likes of Foden ever get a game?
why risk Aguero, Sterling and Jesus,  ?

Foden is away with internationals and Diaz is injured.

Mangala was rubbish tonight, almost giving away a couple of goals. He was saved by Bravo, who was superb. I though Adarabioyo was pretty decent though. Zinchenko looked a decent footballer, even if he was a bit challenged through being out of position. The rest were disappointing.

Adarabioyo moves above Mangala onto the bench if there's any justice.

Foden is currently in India at the u-17 World Cup, Diaz is injured, Adarabioyo and Zinchencko played and Nmecha was on the bench.

When you look at the squad we've assembled it's also important that players like Gundogan, Bravo and Danilo get game time, while Aguero had to have a chance to break the record in a home game.

Same, he was MOTM after 90 minutes. Looked like a completely different keeper to last season. Good competition for Ederson.
