Rodri has given the ball away or been caught in possession more times in last 2 games than rest of season put together.
He seems mentally exhausted - and needs a break.
If we can't find a way of resting him vs Luton - it shows our recruitment strategy has been awful
Nunes being shunted out to left-wing indicates that Pep doesn't trust him to look after ball centrally.
His ability to break the lines and carry the ball forward is far more suited to a counter-attacking team - not the possession heavy football that we play.
Bernardo said Nunes was having...
We must have been watching different games recently.
I hope Rico plays well tonight, but he does lose the ball a lot and gets bullied off the ball as well because of his size.

My Dad drove us up from Birmingham to Stoke - never been so excited ahead of a game.
Football is about dreaming - and he made us dream of success...

These guys only had one job!! but still messed up
After the F1 farce yesterday - this has not been a great 24 hours for elite level sporting competition
I'll tell you why people stress out over City's handling of mobile tickets
My only confirmation of a ticket was an e-mail that explicitly said:
..."THIS EMAIL CANNOT BE USED FOR ENTRY"
Not all of us are tech-savvy + I can honestly say that I have spent more man-hours trying to verify / download...
For Android phone users waiting for tickets to be downloaded - a glimmer of hope
Updates appear to be slow but coming through
I have two tickets on one phone - first was updated first thing this morning
Second ticket just updated at 11.00 am
On cup scheme + seats next to each other - so no idea...
Champs league: read the books about Pep + his sabbatical hanging out with chess grandmasters in New York.
Having won loads of league titles with all his clubs - he wants to go down in history as the first guy to do something funky en-route to a CL final: the football equivalent of a queen...
