Join me in the Mahrez captain club! We're similarly placed in the rankings so it'll be fun.

Alli, all the others have too high a ceiling to bench

Exact same situation re captaincy. On Kun atm. All 3 could potentially explode. I'm questioning if simply having Kun will be enough, and trying to spread the risk by captaining one of the other two. I've put so much faith into him and I would go crazy if he explodes and is not my captain. Plus there is the question of gametime/ injury. But I think city could win 4 or 5 nil tomorrow, and my gut says kun

He's definitely had a few too many. Home to Sunderland isn't the time to drop him... Unless Pellegrini benches him and just brings him on for the last 5 mins.
Feck... Now I'm worried, that's actually very possible

He was dropped 2 games ago to Swansea, should be safe for tomorrow.

Moreno for me too.

Coutinho or Barkley?

Start Ighalo or Deulofeu?

Nalz

De Gea
Dier Kolorov Dann
Willian Ozil Mahrez Ayew
Aguero Giroud Vardy

McCarthy, Alli, Moreno, Williams

My question is do I start Ayew, Williams or Alli?

Bleating Lamb

Given his recent form would it be daft to bench Vardy?

Would be replacing him with a midfield of KDB, Alli, Ozil, Mahrez and Barkley.

Am prob captaining Lukaku.


Would benching Barkley or Ozil make more sense?

Thanks for any replies.

Ighalo on current form.

I'd go Alli every time, Norwich are one of those teams that once you break them down they have the potential to fall apart, could see Spurs get 4 or 5.

Evans/Alder/Francis

Ozil/Mahrez/KdB/Barkley

Rudd/Alli/Cedric/Simpson

Persistent heavy rain across the north of England today.

Postponements probably unlikely but could impact on playing conditions at the likes of Anfield or the Ethiad.....

El Horseboxo

Need to bench one from Moreno, Rose, Ward and Azpi.

Was thinking of starting Ward and benching Moreno. But Ward is the only player away from home.

Any suggestions?
