Our best formation and starting 11?

After watching the first five games I haven’t a clue what the answer is to this question. Zero consistency in performance and probably three or four at most that you would say deserve to be on the team sheet but in all honesty there has been no obvious consistent best formation and best 11 for me yet.
 
Depends on the type of team we're playing. A pressing passing game would work against most teams. The hoof ball game won't work against teams that can retain possession and pass the ball quickly as the team is too spread to defend.
 
The answer is simple we don’t have one as most of our players are largely interchangeable in that they are pretty average so one in one out doesn’t really have a huge impact on the over team dynamic.

is nemcha better than brit ? Is Saville better that Clayton ? Is fry better than makoudi?

the list goes on
 
Whilst a great squad with interchangeable players is great for Man City, in the Championship you tend to see teams irrespective of the opposition set out their own team by consistently players their best players. They don’t have is A better than B. They have a solid defence they they regularly start in the same formation. They worry about themselves far more than the opposition.
We win and get murdered in consecutive games with the same team in the same formation. Yes Bristol are a better than Millwall but without worrying about what Reading, Cardiff and Sheff Wed are going to do, what is our best 11, formation and playing style? Answers in a postcard!
 
Unchanged side, hope that Fry is less of a numpty.

At a push, drop McNair for Roberts or Tavernier.
