Ugh, this fixture is shit. Can’t see it ending well for us.
What in my view lineup should be
Raya, White, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori, Rice (at 6), Partey (at 8), Saka, Trossard, Havertz, Sterling
What lineup is
Raya, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori, Partey, Rice, Trossard, Saka, Havertz, Martinelli
No I’m not sure if this means Saka is playing on the left or not
According to Google, the lineup is 4-4-2 with Saka on the right. Whilst I can believe the latter, I can’t believe the former
Man City: Ederson, Walker, Dias, Akanji, Gvardiol, Rodri, Gundogan, Savio, Silva, Doku, Haaland.
Subs: Ortega, Carson, Stones, Kovacic, Grealish, Matheus Luiz, Foden, Lewis, McAtee.
ArsenaI: Raya, Timber, Saliba, Gabriel, Calafiori, Saka, Partey, Rice, Martinelli, Havertz, Trossard.
Subs: Neto, White, Gabriel Jesus, Kiwior, Jorginho, Sterling, Kacurri, Lewis-Skelly, Nwaneri.
Sterling will be disappointed not to start, I'd have maybe played him and then bring Martinelli on later
It might look a lot to ask for his debut starting game for us but he's very used to playing at Citeh
Big test for Calafiori though, I'm a bit surprised at that, I know Timber's right-footed but he's been ok
