Manchester City fans have been sharing their reaction to Pep Guardiola's starting XI vs Newcastle United. Guardiola has decided to make two changes to the side that beat AFC Bournemouth last weekend.

The notable change is in the attacking front three where Riyad Mahrez has been replaced by Bernardo Silva. Speculation has surrounded Bernardo in recent times with the Portuguese player attracting interest from Barcelona.

However, his current Catalonian manager joked earlier this week that he would definitely be featuring for the Blues when they face the La Liga side in a friendly on Wednesday.

City's other change comes at the back where John Stones is preferred over Ruben Dias who sits on the bench alongside his Mahrez.
