Spacecraft at the double

Looked like a Wan Bissaka assist for the second Spacecraft goal

City have 4 days recovery between each of the next 3 games. Silva is rested and more than capable of playing all 3. He’s their most creative midfield player, possibly their best player. I think Pep will have him in the starting XI.

He's 32 going on 33 and honestly he doesn't look like he has the legs to be starting 4 games in the space of 12 days... we shall see but i'll be surprised if he starts against Brighton. He almost certainly starts the Hoffenheim and Liverpool games directly after

Its very annoying altogether. Im tempted by Richarlison, the extra cash and stress free line-up announcements.

That's exactly where i'm coming from. KDB could be back after the next international break also

Leicester put out wolves on pens

Vardy not scoring and subbed after 60 against Wolves reserves doesn’t inspire.

He’s played 240 minutes of football since September 1. He’s well capable of starting the next 3, especially as he will have a 2 week break straight after it.

There is absolutely NO POINT trying to second guess pep especially when it comes to David Silva. If you buy him you have to be prepared for random unexpected non appearances . I am not prepared to do that as it's not like he is a goal machine when he plays and there are so many mid prices options cheaper

Also this Reddit post about a Man City ITK says he can't play 3 games in 7 days now. Think I'll get rid of him this week, can't be dealing with Pep's midfield rotation.

I think this can be said for every City midfielder. I've had Sane at the start & now Silva who was touted as playing a lot more but was then dropped for the weekend. Best to stay clear as the cheap angle in is not working & Sterling is too expensive

Mane starts for pool, Salah and firmino on bench. Taa and Robertson not in squad

KevIRL

Hazard bench Chelsea. Willian starts. Alonso not in squad

Hmmm, hope he comes off early. Nailed for weekend game?

That'll be operation stop panicing about Trippier and operation stop considering Lucas Moura.

Ye he is nailed always felt he would start this game as they would go with some pace. It was why I felt mane was a rotation risk against southampton.
