No surprise to see City in the mix for the signature of a certain Erling Haaland either.

As we continue to build up to this one, why not keep tabs on more of the latest gossip doing the rounds? City feature quite prominently. We've already looked at Barca's interest in Aguero, but what about the Ctizens' reported interest in Joao Felix as a potential replacement?

Scott Parker: “You can be on the end of one when you play Man City, and we’ve seen that many a time, but it’s certainly a game that we want to try and assert ourselves in and try and cause them some problems.”

Guardiola: “What I have seen lately is young managers with courage. They say to their players, maybe we are going to lose, maybe we don’t have enough quality like the top teams, but why do you have to defend 90 minutes? Why do you not have to play football?”

Guardiola: Scott Parker is younger than me and has hair!

Bernardo Silva: “This season we promised each other that we would give not 100 per cent but 200 per cent to come back stronger and to win again this important title that is the Premier League... We are in a very good position, but until it is mathematically over, I don’t like to think we have already won.”

Joachim Andersen: “City are unbelievable. I’ve been really impressed with how they’re playing and how they changed their style from the start of the season to now. It’s a big, big team and it’s goi19.25ng to be a difficult match, but United beat them last weekend, so why can’t we do it? We have so much confidence, and feel like we can beat anyone.”

Interesting to see Aguero starting especially on the back of Eurosport Spain's exclusive on Barcelona's interest in the Argentine hitman yesterday.
19.15
City's line-up is the one that's got the tongues wagging on social media though. Pep Guardiola has made seven changes from the victory over Southampton. Aguero, Joao Cancelo, Benjamin Mendy, John Stones, Rodrigo, Ferran Torres and Gabriel Jesus all come in.

Scot Parker makes two changes from the side that won at Liverpool. Masterminding another victory here would be some feat on the back of their Anfield success. It would also see the Cottagers move out of the drop zone (as would a point). The smart money is on Loftus Cheek operating as a false nine with Cavaleiro and Lookman pushing on in the wide areas when possible.
