To be fair I turned it off at half time v Inter and watched a couple of episodes of Veep.

 

[Deepest Blue]

Nice mix of yoof and experience.
Should be a good watch.

Actually really like that lineup. Top players needing the match time, plus kids desperate for a chance. Should be good.

 

[Vienna_70]

Wow stronger than I thought with walker and doku starting. But very very fun team

So Pep can have both Walker and Lewis in the same team.

 

[Nellies left peg]

Nice mix of yoof and experience.
Should be a good watch.

Not too pleased to see stones starting in a game like this

Wilson-Esbrand doesnt seem to have a future with us

 

[Fordyboy46]

Interesting line up, Braithwaite is a totally left field selection

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

Have to assume Wilson-Esbrand is injured. Otherwise he'd at least be on the bench.

 

[deano ou812]

8 out of the 11 English..

Hope this euphoria continues.

Phil Foden - Stockport
James McAtee - Salford

I suppose the good thing with the game tonight is that there is no extra-time so if it's all square at 90 minutes then it's straight to a penalty shootout.

That’s youf if you don’t mind

Great to see Foden back. Hopefully just 60 mins for him and straight in for newcastle (assuming Kev is still out)

 

[ninjamonkey]

Stronger than anticipated starting 11 but a much stronger than anticipated bench. Some of those should have been given the night off and a kid could have filled their spot. Hope to see a few on the periphery impress, they need to take this game and play like it's a final to show pep they can be useful.
