In the past that would have been risky because City had pace to burn all over the pitch but Sane is not available and the likes of Aguero, De Bruyne etc aren't as fleet of foot as they once were, the only real threat in behind would be Sterling but with Gomez in the back 4 all our defenders would be quick and I'd fancy them to match him in a foot race.
This City team isn't as athletic as some of the sides they've had in recent years, we need to run the legs off them and basically outwork and overpower them.

That would be a good plan.
I really think we're in a better position than them for this game, everything is on our side, for once. I see just one small problem for us, Lovren. He always costs us the derbys, I recall last season he was all over the place against City, we conceded two goals because of him. Van Dijk had to basically babysit him for the entire game, and you could tell he was furious. He's good enough for a back-up but he's always prone to brain dead moments that can cost us a game, and I'm sick of seeing that tbh.
Sadly, Gomez isn't really in form either, infact I'd say he's in even poorer form than Lovren at the moment. Although he does suit us tactically, that doesn't really matter if the player performes poorly. So really, it's a coin toss, anything can happen, with either of them.
