Goal-Keeper
Emiliano Martinez will hardly be fazed by taking on this City attack with the goal-keeper showing he’s capable of giving any side cold feet.
Defenders
Not only did John Stones end up with a cleansheet the last time around but the City man ended up with a man of the match performance. He scored twice in the side’s 4-0 win, a performance which makes him an instant pick for us.
City have currently accrued 6 cleansheets in their last 7 matches to see us opt for the side’s entire backline. Joao Cancelo, Ruben Dias and Kyle Walker all feature for us from the club.
Fullback Matthew Cash is our pick from the opposition owing to his ability to nullify attacks coming in from wide areas.
Midfielders
His assist the last time around saw Kevin de Bruyne make it 100 assists in Manchester City colors. Ilkay Gundogan was once again on the mark for the club to see him link up with Kevin.
Phil Foden has scored in three of his last four matches to see him complete the triad from the side.
His side’s top assists provider with the 7 layups, Jack Grealish has also popped up with the five goals to see him as ever feature for us.
Strikers
He’s gone off the boil but despite that, Ollie Watkins continues to remain his club’s leading scorer with the six goals.
Captain And Vice-Captain
The three goals and ten assists for Kevin make him our captain while Foden is our vice-captain.
