Pep Guardiola has promised something tactically ludicrous for the Manchester derby, with man-marking Wout Weghorst surely among his brightest plans...
‘Tis the season. There is an option to put the team selection to a fan vote – but Guardiola passively aggressively hinted that was behind his deployment of Joao Cancelo as a winger with Rodri dipping between defence and midfield at Chelsea.
Scribble some positions on a load of balls and wait for the fun and japes to unfold. Phil Foden in net. Erling Haaland in holding midfield. A central defence of Riyad Mahrez and Jack Grealish. John Stones up front. Lisandro Martinez might have a World Cup winner’s medal but he won’t have a sodding clue what to do.
That substitute cameo in the second leg of a Champions League tie City led 5-0 against Sporting was only the keeper’s second appearance for the club. His debut came in May 2021 when he saved a penalty in a 4-3 win over Newcastle. There is no better time than now for Carson to complete his personal hat-trick.
