Going to be interesting what Pep does for the other number 6 position next to Silva.
Does he play Delph there with Zinchenko at LB? Does he play Sterling centrally with #26 out wide right? Does he start Foden?

I didn't see the first game between these two. What do you think the chances the Otter and Vinnie will be given a run?

I am trying to work out if you can't spell his name, you don't like the bloke and can't bring yourself to use his name or you're trying to start some weird shit trend thing?

I'm thinking he will start Razzer & Leroy in their preferred positions, it is more likely that Delph will get the nod and Mahrez will come on as sub early second half if things aren't working out.

I like that JC. Spot on. I've been thinking His Pepness may do a back 3 with Zinc and Walker as the wing backs, but I'd prefer that lineup.
