MC) Lucas
The Brazilian will be a key player at the Etihad. He’ll need to track Yaya Toure’s marauding runs in the middle and try to intercept at the base of midfield.
MC) James Milner
Emre Can’s been poor recently, and while Milner’s not been much better – he’ll be desperate to play against his former side. His attitude is first class and he can provide the legs in the middle alongside Lucas’s anchor. We’d drop Can and go with Milner in the middle, allowing Ibe a start
AMR) Jordon Ibe
Ibe will stretch the game and provide the offensive Aleksandr Kolarov problems at left-back. His pace will make us a far better option as a counter-attcking force, and he deserves his spot after being probably our best player of the two fixtures before the break.
