We probably will see KDB at some stage, he needs the game time.
Foden must be a cert to start.

Good pick. Interesting Danilo has been called up by Brazil for the early November internationals and apparently he trained today along with Delph and Gundogan. Sandler might even come in as defensive mid - actually I'd like to see Zinch there..
Don't think he'll change all eleven though, perhaps Brown will start for the minutes along with Mendy (to atone).
Fulham may be struggling but they can be very good.
Beware.

Fulham will put their kids out JC , the last thing they want right now is to be playing us at the Etihad !

Is Delph fit?

Just wrote this elsewhere, but could honestly see this going something like 10-4 or 8-3. No joke.

Maybe I'm harsh on our defence which has been fantastic, but there's no reason not to push forward against a side with a defence as porous as theirs.

[Dubciteh]

Kdb 100% to start. He needs minutes now, he started last week had a rest and now needs games.

Kdb foden and gundo in middle, jesus sane and diaz the front three.

Delph is fit and I would like to see him in the holding role Thursday. He might need to play there later on in the season.

he seems not quite fully involved here

[South Stand Balti]

Ah, an early pre match thread...... well done. I can't wait for this game. A few players starting to train again but I'm not sure Gundo or Danilo are ready to start. Perhaps Delph can, if he can stay fil until then.

A comfy win 3-0. Stones can have a rest on Sunday and let the Otter play against the Saints.

They do have until Monday to recover for their big game against Huddersfield though.

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Kdb, Sane and Jesus all to start for me. Kompswand Otter in so we can keep a really strong side and bring in kids around them. I much prefer the likes of Foden and Diaz play with first teamers.
