Kyle Walker returns as Man City fans choose line-up to face Bayern Munich

Manchester City supporters are calling for Pep Guardiola to bring Kyle Walker back into the starting line-up for their Champions League quarter-final against Bayern Munich.

Walker, 32, has played just over half an hour of football since representing England over the international fortnight after being named as a substitute in each of City's last two Premier League matches.

The defender did not feature against Liverpool immediately after the break and only appeared as a second-half substitute at Southampton, replacing John Stones moments before Jack Grealish doubled the lead. It comes after Guardiola explained that the decision is tactical due to City using a 3-4-3 formation as of late.
