TONIGHTS CCFC TEAM: GOUTAS BACK AS RIZA MAKES CHANGES:

Tue Mar 04, 2025 6:46 pm

Update:


Once again Looks like a pretty defensive 5-3-2 to me.

Yousef Salech gets the nod over Callum Robinson, with young winger Cian Ashford playing off the big striker. That perhaps gives you an indication of the game plan tonight - with City needing a focal point up top.

A stable-looking midfield three of Calum Chambers, Sivert Mannsverk and Alex Robertson looks to have been picked to snuff out the Burnley danger in the middle, while Joel Bagan and Perry Ng flank Dimi Goutas as Will Fish has to settle for a place on the bench despite impressive recent form.

Still no Will Alves, but Aaron Ramsey and Rubin Colwill on the bench.

Five at the back, looks quite good.

Interested to see how Salech, Robertson and Mannsverk link up together.

Decent options off the bench too.

I like that team a lot. Possibly the strongest starting 11 we've played this season.

Where's Alves? Injured?

I think this is our strongest 11, including all injuries etc.

Strong team... for me both Chambers & Mannsverk is a bit defensive at home but you're right game plan is clear, keep it tight until 2nd half and then you have options to be more attacking.

Fish very unlucky to be on the bench after his last 2 games
