Aymeric Laporte returns as Man City fans choose Premier League line-up to face Fulham

Manchester City supporters want to see Aymeric Laporte return to the starting line-up against Fulham in the Premier League this weekend.

The Spain international was an unused substitute against Arsenal in midweek after playing the full 90 minutes in matches against Leicester City and the FA Cup semi-final versus Sheffield United earlier this month. An unfortunate injury to Nathan Ake appears to have afforded Laporte another opportunity in the first-team after falling out of favour for much of February and March.

Manuel Akanji made way for Laporte versus Leicester, and City fans want that to be the case again as the 28-year-old comes into the side at left-back. On the other side, Kyle Walker remains flanking Ruben Dias and John Stones in the middle as Ederson continues in goal at Craven Cottage.
