2) Target City’s vulnerability on the left-hand side

Willian

Benjamin Mendy has shown himself to be a liability in recent games, having to be substituted in the 1-1 draw against Leeds last time out. With the likes of Phil Foden and even Kevin De Bruyne having been used on the left-wing by manager Pep Guardiola in recent games, there is very little protection on that side of the pitch.


Both Willian and Hector Bellerin could well have the best chances to get forward and exploit this vulnerability and they will need to make the most of the chances they get.
