Mancini makes 4 changes to the side that drew with Sunderland last week with Micah Richards and Wayne Bridge the only injured players. Shaun Wright-Phillips and Nigel de Jong drop to the bench. The only surprise for me is to see Joleon Lescott at left-back; I was expecting to see Javi Garrido. I thought Mancini would opt for a 4-4-2. A very attacking line-up from the Italian which is good to see.
