Team News: Jack Wilshere starts for Bournemouth against Manchester City

Wilshere starts for Bournemouth

Jack Wilshere has been handed his first Premier League start for Bournemouth in their trip to Manchester City this afternoon.

Callum Wilson, the scorer in last week's 1-0 victory over West Bromwich Albion, is the man to make way for the Arsenal loanee.

For Manchester City, Vincent Kompany returns to the matchday squad as he takes a place on the substitutes' bench.

John Stones is rested and moved to the bench, while Pablo Zabaleta, Jesus Navas and Sergio Aguero - serving the second of a three-match domestic ban - are also out of the starting XI from midweek's Champions League thrashing of Borussia Monchengladbach.

In come Bacary Sagna, Gael Clichy, Nolito and Kelechi Iheanacho, who scored a last-minute goal in midweek.

Manchester City: Bravo Sagna, Otamendi, Kolarov, Clichy Fernandinho De Bruyne, Gundogan, Sterling, Nolito, Iheanacho Subs: Caballero, Stones, Kompany, Zabaleta, Sane, Navas, A. Garcia

Bournemouth: Boruc, A Smith, Francis, Cook, Daniels, Ibe, Arter, Surman, Wilshere, Stanislas, King Subs: Federici, Ake, B Smith, Gosling, Gradel, Afobe, Wilson
