Saturday’s events end with the headline act, as leaders Manchester City host Spurs at the Etihad Stadium.

The big team news is undoubtedly the omission of David Silva, reportedly due to “personal reasons”. We have no further explanation as yet for a player who was the most signed ahead of Gameweek 18, with over 278,000 drafting him in.

Silva had returned four goals from his previous four Gameweeks and his absence will be felt by City, with İlkay Gündogan coming in to replace the Spaniard.

For Spurs, Dele Alli returns to the starting line-up as expected, though Danny Rose plays back-to-back league matches for the first time this season, with Ben Davies kept on the bench. Kieran Trippier returns at right-back.

Intriguingly, two of the most sold players this week – Leroy Sane (sold by 166,000) and Harry Kane (sold by 135,000) – are in opposition and will be under scrutiny.

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

    Ah Sterling costly for me!

    Looking at the Sterling + Sané double up

      Me too!

  3. ⭐ Bemba_Da ⭐

    Foden on corners

    What a pass KDB

  5. Limited & Mediocre Mana…

    Sterling still on negative BAPS after the goal

  6. Jet5605
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Which is best:

    A - Mahrez > Sane
    B - Mahrez & Okazaki > KDB & Depoitre for -4 hit

  7. Dr. DOOM

    Hazard to Kdb very much on the cards

    eh, what was wrong with the 'og' comment, the only angle I saw it looked like Lloris deflected de bruyne's shot back towards the goal as it looked like it was swerving away, guess I was wrong ?

    Palace and Liverpool are the only teams that I think will give City a run for their money. They're the only teams that play with wingers and I think city will struggle against that.

    When it comes to Champions league, City will get found out.

      Don't understand why teams don't try more one touch passing and long balls against CIty. You are not going to pass through them in midfield. So go over them or try to move the ball so quickly they can't catch it.

    Thoughts on Gross + Choupo + Morata -> Silva + Sterling + Quaner (-8)? Should pay itself back.

    0 points for those with both Jesus and Aguero

    1. HamezMace
      • 11 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      I have 1 point from a front three of Kane, Morata and Jesus.

      Would be better playing Elliot up front instead

      1. Fred54
        • 11 Years

        True that.

  12. Touré De Force

    Finally all agrred KDB is a steal at his price?

    1. Lumberjack
      • 10 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No, Sterling has the same points for quite a bit cheaper...

  13. Sim Simma

    RMT was right.. I should have benched Kane

  14. Guy Demel
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Still waiting for Davies to come on for no reason just to finish my season off

    1. Guy Demel
      • 12 Years

      classic

    Nearly sterling again

  16. GOTHAM City F.C.
    • 8 Years

    Sterling misses

    City are walking this league!

    Anyone think they will become the second invincibles?

    1. Sánchez
      • 13 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      Yes. Can't see anyone beating them

    2. Sterling is £11Mill..…
      • 8 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      No they will become complacent and pick up some injury. Only a matter of time until they are found out at the back

    3. money face bandwagon
      • 12 Years
      8 years, 2 months ago

      They might not. But they will definitely get way more points than the so called invincibles

  18. Rainer
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Ohhhhhh

  19. Speédy
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Sterling almost....

  20. Limited & Mediocre Mana…
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    I think Sterling actually lost BAPS for scoring

  21. justlikehoney
    • 9 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Sane owners being repaid for showing a little faith here.

  22. Total Foot 5
    • 12 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Better duo:

    1 silva + 4.3 Ogbonna
    2 sterling + 4.1 Mariappa

  23. fedolefan
    • 11 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Sub Sterling damn it.

  24. Fanta sea
    • 10 Years
    8 years, 2 months ago

    Hopefully this year is a repeat of the 1967/68 season. City win the league but United win the Champions league.

  26. GOTHAM City F.C.
