It says it's prevention, meaning he's actually fit enough to play. He probably comes on last 10 if we had needed a goal. But even assuming we were never going to play him, having him on the bench does him no harm, gives the opposition manager that concern of him coming on from the bench and the alternative is maybe some kid thats never seeing a minute sits on the bench or more likely, we name one less sub.Why the hell even on the bench then ?
Pep puts players he's no intention of using because of fitness concerns on the bench fairly regularly.
