[Teams] Man City vs Liverpool: Confirmed Line-Ups

Manchester City entertain Liverpool in a top-of-the-table clash at the Etihad Stadium on Boxing Day.

The Reds head into the game sitting top of the Premier League but City are just two points adrift so will leapfrog their rivals with a win this evening.

Man City

Hart, Zabaleta, Lescott, Kompany, Kolarov, Fernandinho, Yaya Toure, Nasri, Silva, Negredo, Navas

   Agger’s not a natural left back but Cissokho is like a dynamite waiting to explode. We don’t have a good bench. Let’s hope City partied all night and forgets how to play football.
