Dugout Discussion – Man City vs Sunderland

Attentions now turn to the Etihad where Pep Guardiola makes his Premier League bow.

David Moyes’ Sunderland are the guests and potential party poopers, although the odds do seem stacked against them.

The Black Cats are in transition under their new manager, while City boast such attacking riches there can be no doubt that they head into today’s clash as overwhelming favourites.

Expectant Fantasy managers will be looking to Sergio Aguero to capitlise – the Argentine heads into the teatime kick-off as the most popular captain choice in the Gameweek and with over 40% ownership.

Mark Mark created the beast. He's now looking to tame it.

            That's a bit harsh. Everyone chooses to play their own game.
            And he possesses a lot of West Ham-information.

              Again. I don't doubt his valuable insight regarding West Ham. That's not what I'm talking about though
