    Can't see him displacing Ntcham or McGregor.

    Team I think has best chance of starting on Sunday

    Ddv
    Hendry
    Simunovic
    Ajer
    Tierney
    Brown
    Ntcham ( although if Armstrong is fit enough to make the bench I would start with him instead)
    Forrest
    Mc Gregor
    Dembele

    ( think mc Gregor will start ahead off Sinclair as scotty has been a no show most of the season but mc Gregor gives you more without the ball defending than Sinclair but also plays well with tierney though who ever plays wide left is always going to cut infield most of time to allow tierney to overlap and try get crosses in )

    You'd start Armstrong ahead of Ntcham?

    Armstrong is better than ntcham more old school box to box midfielder but will get you more goals and assists through season than ntcham

    Sorry but that’s just not true. There’s a reason Ntcham was at city and Armstrong was at Dundee United before arriving here.

    Armstrong should have no chance of starting this game. Aside from the fact that he's just back from being out for months injured.....he was poor this season before his injury.....Ntcham has really improved and I think this could be the game when he shows his true quality......and also Kouassi Eboue should be ahead of Armstrong in the pecking order as his performances have been outstanding when he's come into the team.

    I personally would go 3-5-2,

    De Vries,
    Ajer,
    Simunovic,
    Compper,
    Brown,
    Ntcham,
    Forrest,
    Tierney,
    Dembelle
    Edouard,

    I dont think * about with 1 striker will work in this one.....we need to go full battle speed at this mob

    Why?

    Armstrong's form has been well below par all season.

    After his performance in the last game and in general this season he has no right to walk right back into the team.

    If he does start, it will be interesting to see how he fares now he's hernia-free.

    Could be a masterstroke. Could backfire.

    As long as it isn't at the expense of Ntcham then I'm willing to back the manager if that's his call. I genuinely don't see it being a case for concern in terms of potentially losing the match. Still a lot would have to go wrong and a number of off days from a few players for that scenario to become remotely likely.

    If Armstrong starts BR needs a swift kick in the hole.
