I think even without Felleini they are the most physically powerful team in the league. Emre Can I would play for certain, Gomez at right back too. If it were me I'd play Milner at left back but I shouldn't think JĆ¼rgen will go down that route. To be totally honest I aren't overly confident. We are going to need Bobby Firmino to return to his best form and for our best two players (Coutinho and Mane) need to be right on it, and we're going to need our back five to have their best performance of the season.
By hook or by crook I've found myself at the top of the prediction league. I haven't got there by predicting 5-0 wins every week, and I aren't doing that here either. Given the way things are, I'd take a point right now. That said, these games have a habit of favouring the underdog and I've told every single Manc who comes in here that we are going to smash them up, just wish I actually believed it more.
