You’re not going to play Milner are you absolutely mental?! Would bet my house on it.

Think in the press conference Pellegrini said Mangala has a problem with his hip/thigh and is not in the squad tomorrow.

Don’t see any evidence that Dzeko deserves the place over Jovetic myself.

Think youre right about the fact 3 of the 4 midfielders are more forward thinking, would be suprised with that starting line up. However I do think this could be a good game for Nasri to get some sharpness and he could be a key player in the next few weeks with Silva out.

Personally I would go with Mangala as I think he is a better option in the long term, although the critics will say you need a settled back 4 so would understand if people think Demi should play.

I understand the author may be picking the team he thinks
Pelligrini may select but navas, yaya and nasri cannot play effectively defensively in a 4 man midfield. Milner would have to start. Dzeko has done nothing to warrant a start

Milner has to start before Nasri on current form
