This really is beginning to worry me now. Even after he has been treated by Pep's go-to guy for knee problems, Dr Cugat, he cannot seem to resolve whatever is troubling him with his injury

It is troubling. Maybe it's time for someone else to have a look.

Barry, Brown and Goater on team news
Gareth Barry on Fernandinho starting...
"Him starting after 90 minutes gets me thinking Pep might not have known his team in the week. Pep might have watched the game and thought you know what we need him on Saturday."
Michael Brown on Cancelo starting...
"It's a safe option from Guardiola with his pace and understanding. It's the right decision. Stones has confidence now and we knew what he could do he just had to stay fit. He's a Pep Guardiola player."
Shaun Goater on Stones...
"I love the team. City have a brilliant team. I'm looking for to see Stones he's been so consistent and I’m happy to see him playing today and hopefully a clean sheet."

Pep on interview saying Aguero is being taken 'step by step'.

 

[Colin Is The King]

Indeed, not long to kick off......Come (Cone) on City!

 

[Hominid]

I'm a bit worried that Rodri and Ferna together in mid-field is too defensive a line-up. If one if them is going to 'push up', why not play Foden, who does it naturally - and very effectively?

Thank goodness. Fernandes fractured leg has healed. He's up (having made Kavanaugh note the brutal nature of The Evil Fernandinho's two footed head high tackle)
