Manchester City is working to secure the Champions League football for the next season, but the cityzens were supported by the fact that the top 5 of the Premier League will qualify for the first Europe’s Premier Club competition.
A great stalemate in Old Trafford not only triggered an existential debate about the currently shown product, but also saw that City slipped to sixth place on the table. Only one point separates them and the two teams directly above them.
Therefore, you have the opportunity to put Chelsea and Newcastle under pressure before your home games this weekend.
Guardiola’s trick of clogging the midfield that the city left without width contributed to a cumbersome derby in Old Trafford, so that there was a reversal in Etihad. This is how City could face Crystal Palace.
GK: Ederson – Everson enjoyed a run in the Premier League XI after shared minutes with Stefan Ortega for a period of time. He is a Shoo-in to continue in a team.
RB: Matheus Nunes – Guardiola offered the backhand compliments a week and explained why he can work in the right-back, not in midfield.
CB: Ruben slides – Dias cut out his work when he is supposed to tame the threat of Jean-Philippe Mateta in the Etihad.
CB: Abdukodir Khusanov – The addition in January fell on the bench for the Manchester Derby, but was able to return to the XI to fight the speed of the palace on the counter.
LB: Josko Gvardiol – Nico O’Reilly appeared for the cityzens, but Guardiola was able to use Gvardiol on the left side of his defense with greater security.
Cm: Nico Gonzalez – Gonzalez was a strange omission from the game last Sunday because he enjoyed a pretty good start to his career when City was enjoyed.
Cm: Ilkay Gundogan – Guardiola does not want to leave the experienced midfielder on an island against this palace team, but Gundogan played well on the last excursions.
RW: Savinho – Savinho sparkled in Manchester at times during his debut season, but the Brazilian campaign apparently landed. Can he find another equipment this weekend?
Am: Phil Foden – Kevin de Bruynes farewell tour started with a start in the derby last weekend, but the Belgian will not be a constant on the track. Exciting that Foden, which will fill the emptiness of de Bruyne together with a summer reduction, will start in the primary creative function on Saturday.
LW: Jeremy Doku – It is imperfect, but it is always a feeling that something can happen when Doku picks up the ball on the left. The palace will probably double it, but the Belgian has shown that it has the required explosiveness and fast feet to beat a tag team.
St: Omar Marmoush – The Torlast is located in Marmoush’s shoulders in Erling Haaland’s absence. The Egyptian sniper was Hell in the derby and will be interested in expanding his balance sheet against a potentially exhausted palace backline.
