Manchester City Starting XI v Tottenham: Yaya Toure Back To His Best

Manchester City predicted XI v Tottenham this weekend. Fully fit City should dominate Struggling Spurs…

Manchester City are flying high this season as expected, but they will be looking to keep up the pressure on league leaders Chelsea and take all three points as they host Tottenham this weekend.

The Premier League champions should be able to field a full strength squad as they have very few injuries. A struggling Tottenham side should be brushed aside if City are at their best.

Here is how we believe Manchester City will line up against Tottenham:

 

GK) Joe Hart

Although Hart’s place in the team has not been guaranteed this season since the acquisition of Willy Caballero, expect him to take his place between the posts against Tottenham.

LB) Gael Clichy

The French full-back offers slightly more than Aleksander Kolarov defensively, so may get the nod with the likes of Lamela and Chadli to contend with.

CB) Vincent Kompany

The captain and really the only mainstay in the City defence, sure to start at the back.

CB) Eliaquim Mangala

A mixed opening few games from the Frenchman, but he is slowly being integrated into the first team.

RB) Pablo Zabaleta 

One of the best right-backs in the league, likely to get the nod over summer signing Bacary Sagna.

DM) Fernando

Adds a bit of stability in midfield, and allows Yaya Toure to maraud forward when he wants to.

CM) Yaya Toure

After getting his first goal in the league this season, City will be hoping for a revitalised Yaya Toure against Tottenham.

LM) David Silva

The creative spark in the Manchester City team, an unbelievable talent and a vital part of the squad.

RM) James Milner

Industrious and in a superb patch of form, Milner has been one of the standout performers for City this season.

ST) Edin Dzeko

His contrasting style compared to Aguero makes him the perfect partner up front, sure to start if as predicted Manuel Pellegrini goes for his 4-4-2 formation.

ST) Sergio Aguero

Arguably the best striker in the league, the first name on the teamsheet when fit. Will be looking to continue his superb form this season so far.
