After defeating Liverpool 4-0 in a handsome rout of this season’s champions, all the narrative around Manchester City was about the team preparing itself to redeem this season’s horrid campaign. People were quick to aboard the City train and pipe up the side’s dominance in the forthcoming season.

However, things quickly went on a downtick with the club losing its immediately next encounter to Southampton. The 1-0 defeat was the perfect epitome of City’s stuttering sortie in the 2019-20 edition of the Premier League with the team having gone onto have lost 9 encounters this season, more than Arsenal.

The performance was a frustrating one for the second placed club, a performance which they’ll be looking to overturn when they step out onto the pitch to square off against Newcastle United today.

Goal-Keeper

Be it Manchester City or any other electric attacking contingent in the league, Martin Dubravka has stood tall, firm and resolute infront of everyone. The shot stopper has emerged as one of the most prestigious names in the league, a player who has regaled the side in wordclass showings of shot stopping on a consistent basis.

Defenders

Manchester City might have gone onto leak the one goal to Southampton the last time around but that goal was more owing to Ederson’s futile and crass mistake rather than a collapse of the side’s defence. Barring that error, the team has been squeaky clean since the league has once again made an advent in the fraternity, a backline which has clearly addressed the elephant in the room.

And with Newcastle United confirming that they are stricken by injuries to the attacking slot head of the day’s clash, City will be quietly confident of keeping a cleansheet today. It sees us indulge in the services of their entire backline with all of Kyle Walker, Benjamin Mendy, Aymeric Laporte and Eric Garcia being enshrined in our docket.

Midfielders

Kevin de Bruyne was left out of City’s playing 11 the last time around and his absence was telling on the side’s attacking gameplan. Devoid of the services of their most influential name, the side failed to convene meaningful attacking sorties, leaving the side wanting of the midfielder.

He’s set to be back for this one to make the 11 goal man our first pick from the side along with Phil Foden who has been the club’s top scorer since the league has restarted. Newcastle United will elsewhere see us go in for their defensive picks here with the side relying heavily on defence today as they look to curb City from piling on the goals.

Given the escalated role Matt Richie holds with the player being accorded a new role in the CDM docket, he makes an advent into our Dream 11 side as the first player from the visiting team. He’s partnered up by the team’s top scorer with Jonjo Shelvey taking his tally to 6 goals after scoring the last time around against West Ham.

Strikers

The 13 goals for Raheem Sterling see us snag the player for the day’s imminent encounter from the home side while Newcastle United on the other side will see us opt for the flair and calibre of Joelinton.

Captain And Vice-Captain

With 28 goal contributions in this edition of the league, Kevin is our side’s captain while Foden is the vice-captain.

Dream 11 Team

Martin, Walker, Mendy, Laporte, Garcia, Kevin, Foden, Shelvey, Ritchie, Sterling, Joelinton
