Rodri rested will worry me, if though the lad thoroughly deserves one

When do you rest him, then? The guy's dead on his feet.

Is this a game where we are thinking we could rest Rodri and maybe Foden?

Its always a bit risky to rotate in the prem but I think its also probably ncessary.

Kovacic Nunes (esp) Doku needed to step up - Think Alvarez may come back into the picture as well

There is the problem in your last paragraph. On the whole our new additions have been pretty underwhelming to say the least. Alvarez had been the best of them but his form.has dipped sharply of late. As a result our starting eleven is getting flogged to death.

CL for me again this year, to go two in a row would be remarkable and it's at Wembley.

Why not both? Maybe even 3 trophies. AIM for the stars and see where we land.

That’s a pretty dam good team methinks.

It would be, but not as remarkable as 4 PL in a row.

Thoroughly deserves one.

Hard to pick a team because we need to rest and rotate and we'll also more than likely have to against Chelsea in the Cup as well and it would be good if the likes of Nunes had some playing time before that game, but that's probably what I would go with.

It's showing on the pitch as well. He lost or gave away the ball VS Palace & Madrid quite a lot.

Nunes - Kovacic
Bobb - De Bruyne - Doku
Alvarez

Foden, Haaland, Silva, Rodri, Grealish rest, or sub on.


never gonna happen is it.

Hope not.

I also highly doubt we will make that many changes. We were 4-1 up at Palace and Gomez was about to come on. In the meantime we gave a goal away to make it 4-2 and Guardiola scrapped the idea of bringing Gomez on. If he isn't prepared to risk putting Gomez on for a few minutes when we're 2 goals up and with only a few minutes left, I doubt he's going to risk making big changes for this game.
