Pep Guardiola is having his toughest time at Manchester City since he ever joined them. His side has now lost five games in a row, which never happened before. While everyone was expecting them to bounce back against Tottenham Hotspur, they showed ever a poor display of football.
The Citizens’ League title is now under threat as Liverpool are racing away too fast. The former side will next lock horns with Feyenoord in the Champions League before they travel to Anfield to face the ruthless Arne Slot’s side.
4-2-3-1 Manchester City Predicted Lineup Vs Feyenoord
Defence
Never a good affair leaking four goals in a game but little Ederson could’ve done to avoid it. Anyway, he will operate between the sticks once again. Right-back Kyle Walker has shown signs of slowing down but he might retain his spot.
Amid multiple injuries in the defensive unit, Pep Guardiola might be forced to use John Stones and Manuel Akanji as the centre-backs again despite a poor performance. However, the Spanish manager could call Nathan Ake at the left-back position at the expense of Josko Gvardiol.
Midfield
With Walker contributing from the backline, Rico Lewis should be used in the midfield. To pair up with him, Matheus Nunes is the prime contender even ahead of Ilkay Gundogan.
Attack
Bernardo Silva and Phil Foden are likely to be replaced by Kevin De Bruyne and Jack Grealish. Though Jeremy Doku is also expected to get minutes, he is unlikely to start the game. Hence, Savinho becomes the obvious choice for the right wing.
No doubt Erling Haaland is leading the pack but his form has dried up recently. The striker needs to find his form back again.
Rodri (ACL), Ruben Dias (calf), Oscar Bobb (leg) or Mateo Kovacic (unspecified) are missing this fixture for sure.
