Left Back – Charlie Daniels
So far this season, Daniels has been one of Bournemouth’s better defenders. He has been able to defend first and attack second, while also being a goal threat too. He has three goals and three assists in 20 league appearances this season, which is highly productive for a defender. He finds nice pockets of space down the flanks, and has been a regular for Eddie Howe the past few seasons. If he is healthy to go on Monday, then I definitely like his chances over City’s Aleksandar Kolarov.
