Right attention turns now to Chelsea v Man City, which strangely considering how close we are to the end of the season is a fairly meaningless game. Only City with a theoretical if highly unlikely chance of winning the league. Teams coming up...

Man City: Hart, Zabaleta, Otamendi, Mangala, Kolarov, Toure, Fernandinho, Jesus Navas, De Bruyne, Nasri, Aguero. 

Subs: Sagna, Fernando, Caballero, Bony, Delph, Demichelis, Iheanacho.
