Excellent line up

I love Khusanov in defence, but I'm still happy with this team. Very strong.

I fear Khusanov will only play second fiddle for PL & CL games while he further develops. To me he's a brilliant defender, but not to Pep seemingly. 

Donnarumma, Nunes, Dias, Guéhi, Ait-Nouri, Rodrigo, Bernardo (C), O'Reilly, Semenyo, Marmoush, Haaland

Subs: Trafford, Reijnders, Stones, Cherki, Nico, Savinho, Khusanov, Foden, Lewis

I like Khusa in defence personally.

Match day has arrived

Big big game

4-1 to City. I expect to see steely determination from now on.

There is not much at all in it now. But I have to say that Arsenal throwing away a 2 goal lead at bottom of the table Wolves makes me favour City.

Gooners 4/7
City 6/4

It would be great now if we could kick on and go on a brilliant winning run like we've done before in previous seasons after Xmas.

Rodri will start to gain more form. The defence is looking more settled now with Guhei added. Haaland needs to get back scoring goals. Foden is my biggest worry though. His form is back to last seasons and he isn't looking like regaining it. Maybe Pep will go with Cherki to fulfill the Foden role.

Wobble wobble 

Can't wait to hear Arteta's comments.
