Dugout Discussion

The Dugout Discussion – Monday

We’ve the small matter of a Monday evening showdown at the Etihad to contend with before the Gameweek comes to its conclusion. Manuel Pellegrini will be looking to get one over Jose Mourinho as City seek the win that will fire them back to the summit, whilst Chelsea will be hoping to put the brakes on their hosts’ blistering attack.

City must do so without the talents of Sergio Aguero up top after the Argentine was ruled out with a hamstring injury last week. Pellegrini makes three changes to the side that hammered Spurs last time around – Matija Nastasic, Aleksandar Kolarov and Alvaro Negredo come in for Fernandinho, Gael Clichy and Aguero, with Martin Demichelis moving into central midfield to cover in the Brazilian’s absence.

Mourinho makes a couple of alterations to his XI, with Nemanja Matic and David Luiz replacing John Obi Mikel and Oscar.

As always, we’ve opened up our Dugout Discussion chatroom to cater for your real-time needs.

Paul Is certain he won't make the same mistakes next season. Follow them on Twitter
