Mount benched as Sterling and Aguero lead Man City attack

1,744 Comments

Mason Mount (£6.8m) finds himself on the Chelsea bench for the daunting visit to Manchester City this afternoon.

With a recent injury to Callum Hudson-Odoi (£5.8m) and Christian Pulisic (£7.4m) carrying a hip problem, it had been though that Mount might be afforded a start in the front-three.

However, Frank Lampard has named Pulisic and Willian (£7.1m) either side of Tammy Abraham (£8.0m).

In anticipation of Manchester City’s powerful attack, he has gone with a 4-3-3 formation featuring Jorginho (£5.1m), Mateo Kovačić (£5.3m) and N’Golo Kanté (£5.0m) in the midfield trio.

For the third match in a row, Emerson Palmieri (£5.5m) starts at left-back.

Meanwhile, Raheem Sterling (£12.0m) and Sergio Aguero (£12.0m) are both in Manchester City’s front-three, joined by Riyad Mahrez (£8.3m) in light of Bernardo Silva‘s (£7.9m) suspension.

For the first time since Gameweek 10, Benjamin Mendy (£5.8m) and Joao Cancelo (£5.3m) are named in the full-back positions while John Stones (£5.3m) and Fernandinho (£5.2m) are trusted in the middle of the defence.

Line-ups

Man City XI: Ederson; Mendy, Fernandinho, Stones, Cancelo; Rodrigo, D Silva, De Bruyne; Sterling, Aguero, Mahrez.

Chelsea XI: Kepa; Emerson, Tomori, Zouma, Azpilicueta; Kovacic, Jorginho, Kanté; Pulisic, Abraham, Willian.

    TAA and Robbo are going to torment me all season. They do just enough to stay in my team by picking up the odd assist and *almost* keeping a CS. They just aren't worth 7 mil. But with those fixtures I can't get rid

        Actually this^. Betting on Liverpool conceding exactly one goal would have been magnificent. Yet, it shouldn't continue forever. Strange do happen though, but no reason to be superstitious.

      Take a deep breath and just get rid of Sterling for now. Salah was on the bench so is likely to play next week. Wait until near the end of the week. You could easily regret those moves.
