Gabriel Jesus starts, Raheem Sterling out - The Man City XI fans would like to see vs Liverpool

Manchester City fans would like to see Gabriel Jesus return in the central striker role for the trip to Anfield this afternoon (Sunday).

City take on Liverpool in the Premier League just four days after being in Champions League action against Paris Saint-Germain.

Both clubs go into the game knowing that the right result could see them go into the second international break of the season at the top of the table.

Ahead of the match, MEN Sport gave City fans the chance to have their say on who should be in the starting lineup vs Liverpool with City fans wanting one change to the team who started in Paris.

That change comes in the front three, with fans opting for the usual 4-3-3 system.

The game against PSG saw Riyad Mahrez, Raheem Sterling and Jack Grealish all start, and while supporters would like to see Grealish and Mahrez continue in the 11, Sterling has been replaced by Gabriel Jesus in the most popular XI.

Jesus scored the winning goal in the 1-0 win over Chelsea in City’s last Premier League outing with City fans opting for the Brazilian over both Sterling and Ferran Torres.

The 23-year-old has scored three goals in all competitions so far this season and has started the last five Premier League games.

Here is the most Popular XI, as picked by City fans.

Man City fans starting XI: Ederson; Walker, Laporte, Dias, Cancelo; Rodri, De Bruyne, Bernardo; Mahrez, Jesus, Grealish
