'Utterly baffling' - Fans cannot believe Pep Guardiola has left Manchester City striker Sergio Aguero on the bench for Champions League clash with Liverpool

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola certainly raised a few eyebrows with his team selection against Liverpool on Tuesday night.

The Citizens welcome Jurgen Klopp’s men to the Etihad with a 3-0 deficit to overturn if they are to progress to the Champions League semi-finals.

With Fernandinho potentially lining up at left-back, and no other naturally defensive minded midfielders in the starting XI, it looks as though Guardiola is opting for an all-out attack approach.

However, with goals being what the Spaniard so desperately craves, many were surprised to see Sergio Aguero on the bench.
