Manchester City: Predicted lineup matchday 11
Midfielders:
Two of the three players I think will play in this midfield played all 90 minutes midweek. As I said in the intro though, this is the last game before the International break, and will ask them to go again.
Fernandinho is solid just in front of the back two, and I would expect him to continue that against Arsenal.
Kevin DeBruyne also played all of the 90 on Tuesday but you just can’t leave him out. If the result is going in our favor in the second half I think both of these could be substituted off, but not until the job is done.
Finally, David Silva steps in. He came off the bench against Napoli to play the last twenty minutes. Replacing Gundogan he looked fresh, and dangerous, compared to the German he replaced.
