Foden on the bench

 

[discopop]

As good as we can put out

 

[CC1]

Wow. What a bench!!

 

[Gumzy97]

Oooo Doku and Savio on the wings

 

[Mighty men]

Like that team.

 

[Vienna_70]

Bloody hell!

I do believe I get it right.

There a first time for everything!

 

[give it to gordon]

How come it's out early ?

 

[kaz7]

Feels a bit lightweight

COME ON BLUEBOYS

 

[Trickyblues]

Nice team.

 

[Phil1]

I’d say our squad depth isn’t as shabby as being made out by some judging from that line up and bench..

 

[Gumzy97]

Bang on. And it was still the reason we also lost the Cup Final, Kovacic couldn't help a knackered Rodri with the running.

If Kovacic plays as the six like he did at Arsenal last season, with Rico alongside him, they are going to run right off the back of us.

Kova is only good deep with a destroyer next to him or ball winner. At Chelsea he had Kante under Tuchel.

 

[Kamaro011]

Cancelo isn't in bench.

It's over for him

 

[Ric]

Big fan of that starting XI, given what's available.

They have changed it for some reason
