Bench one:

Yoshida (STO)
Vertonghen (hul)
Monreal (EVE)

Also benching Stephens

Opinions appreciated!

I'm benching Monreal from the same 3 plus Stephens as I think that Everton could pinch a goal, while Stoke and Hull may not. But it is a close call.

I'd bench Yoshida. I need to bench 2 from

Yoshida (STO)
Fabregas (SUN)
King (lei)

I have no idea what Conte will do. I currently have Alonso starting as well

Do I bench Heaton or Caballero?

The odds say 3.5 and 2.1 for clean sheets, respectively. But it feels much closer than that! Plus my ML rival will be playing Heaton and I'm protecting a 6 point lead...

I'd probably plau Heaton to block. Clean Sheets are a total bingo game in GW38 anyway

I'd play Clichy, spread the risk.

Still torn between Clichy and Davies myself, with one vote to Davies so far (from Jocki).

Yeah. City are capable of conceding in every game at anytime.

They were lucky not to concede against Palace, they didn't got a clean sheet against Leicester and didn't against West Brom either. Those are their last three games - all at home - in which they were very much pulling the strings. Especially the last game was a kick in the teeth for me and lots of others (Caballero) with a late unexpected consolation goal.

Spurs on the other hand are defensively very well organized.

I'd also play Davies from those two Notned. Spurs defence is better than City's and Watford have better strikers than Hull.

The monreal benchers can't have watched the last game, he was unlucky not to score
