Another Kakuta on our hands.

Another bench player. I would rather pass.

He could break three massive records this season and he ain't even 30. I would agree with most English players being overrated, but I don't think he's one of them.Bony might be more of a finisher, but Rooney offers more on the whole.

Only one match has been played and shit is going on. Not good.

I would put Rooney ahead of him as well.

He is never worth that sum of money any day of the week, but usual thing that happens with English players. Price tag is massively inflated.

He was voted the best player in Germany last season. That's a massive achieve for someone in his debut season and not playing at Bayern. £45m is lot of money, but it would be better spent on him rather than Sterling IMO.

I'm surprised we're appealing a one match ban. I doubt it will be overturned.

I would like us to go for the win, but we all know Mou will be more worries about no losing. The importance of this match will be bigger if City win against West Brom.

That's not saying much IMO.

Defensive ability will always come first whilst Mourinho is around. Those names won't be muttered around here.

I would personally prefer him putting himself about in the box instead of taking set pieces.

He can be useful at times. His winner against Sporting last year was one of those.

Not sure why he was taking set pieces later on in the match. He should be in the box making the of his presence.

I know what he can do, but that should be dismissed after several poor performances. Did nothing all match.

Looked fit and determined. Happy with his performance

This!!!!

Was a bit more lively later on the in the game, but was quiet for the most part.

First of many.

Did what he needed to do. Next week should be a bigger test.

Shocking. Play Azpi at RB and drop him ASAP.

Iva will cost us another goal if Willian doesn't track Montero.

Thibo injured now. Confident in Begovic to do the job.

Costa starting is a big surprise, but I hope he is actually fully fit. It has backfired before. Let's start the season with a comfortable home win.

I'm guessing Costa will be out, so I would just go for Remy ahead of Falcao. I hope the team as a whole turn up. It's time to defend our title!
