Guardiola should give these 3 Man City stars a chance against Man United

Fabian Delph

David Silva is a big doubt for the Manchester derby after coming off injured in their FA Cup defeat to Arsenal on Sunday, following a hefty challenge from Gabriel.

And that could mean that England international Fabian Delph gets an opportunity in the centre of midfield against United.

The 27-year-old has only managed two Premier League starts in an injury-ravaged campaign at the Etihad Stadium, but his most recent league outing saw him net and produce a fine display in their 3-0 success over Hull a few weeks ago.

Delph also got a further 20 minutes of action on Sunday at Wembley to suggest that he’s right back in the fold at the club, so he may well get the nod on Thursday.
