If Pep Guardiola was asked to pick his strongest Manchester City starting line-up, assuming everyone was fit, it would look very different to the current Blues side he is relying upon.
In the summer, City added Erling Haaland to their all-star team and made the decision to permanently move Joao Cancelo over to left-back. Phil Foden had just enjoyed his best season at the Etihad from the left wing, and Bernardo Silva was back to his best.
Manuel Akanji was a late addition in the transfer window to add depth to the defensive ranks, but he wasn't expected to displace Ruben Dias and Aymeric Laporte. How times change.
