You have to congratulate Jabba the hut Tebas , La Liga have given Real ten days rest before this game because they know the importance of a Champs league win and the kudos it will give to La Liga , the Premier league on the other hand awarded us an extra two and a half hours with the 12.30 early kick off against Palace.
The irony that if we did win Big Ears again it could lead to a fifth placed club qualifying for the Champs league next season , so one of our back stabbing competitors like the Rags or Spuds would benefit from our success , you can bet Levy or Ratcliffe will not refuse a place in the Champs league next season as a mark of solidarity against our club and the pending 115 charges , absolutely not , they will grab it with both of their sticky/greedy hands which only questions their lack of integrity.
Never underestimate the abilty of this site to generate ludicrous conspiracy theories.Everyone in La Liga got the weekend off to be fair, it was Copa final weekend.
Had Real Madrid got the final they would have played on Saturday.
At this stage of the season I would rather be playing every 3 days gaining momentum.
Can you imagine us going into this Real Madrid game after the Arsenal game having 9 days off? I am glad we had Villa and Palace in between.
He is also a bit slow to get back when we lose possession so I don’t think we can risk him despite how well he has played in the last couple of games.You'd think if all are fit, the back 4 would be Akanji, Stones, Dias and Gvardiol.
Lewis is a good player but isn't really a FB and I wouldn't want to see him up against Vinicius Jr.
Possibly but maybe just the mid week game with a 6 daybreak given some of the niggles we are carrying would have been ideal.Everyone in La Liga got the weekend off to be fair, it was Copa final weekend.

A comment like this is a classic sign that you're part of the conspiracy, JGL07 (if that's even your real name)Never underestimate the abilty of this site to generate ludicrous conspiracy theories.
Not a bad shoutThis lineup would not suprise me now
Edeson
Akanji
Stones
Dias
Bernardo
Kova
Rodri
Grealish
Kdb
Foden
Haaland
Rodri dropping into make a back 4 when defending??
Sounds like Gvardiol is a big doubt here.
Pep sounds generally pissed off…
“The way to play against Vinicius is with Walker but he got injured…. IN A FRIENDLY”
He never misses an opportunity to stress that. Waistcoat will not be looking forward to the next time he picks up the phone to Pep.
He played CB for Spain many times, so it wouldn't be an issue. Having said that, he is such an incredible player we would be wasting his talents at CB. I love his runs forward and shots from the distance.This lineup would not suprise me now

There’s a chance but I’m pretty sure it’s SouthgateI think it could be equally aimed at Walker.
Walker should have been man enough to say to Southgate, listen mate, you know I am going to be the main right back at the Euros, give me the two weeks off, I am going for a treble.
For me, both Southgate and Walker. Our players need to be more assertive in the future. How are the likes of Foden, Stones, or Walker playing pointless friendlies for 90 minutes when we have a chance for a back-to-back treble is beyond me.I think it could be equally aimed at Walker.
