Wild prediction that I'll probably regret throwing out there but when we played Palace at home and we went 2 down, Pep adjusted the setup and the left back in the three was Foden. It didn't get a lot of attention because it's not been repeated but I remember Dias pulling him round like he was on a piece of string and him being in the right spot to cross for Haaland's 2nd or 3rd (the header).

Laporte would be a more conservative or conventional choice but given Saka's pace I wouldn't be surprised to see Foden in that slot tomorrow.
Someone suggested Bernardo playing there again like he did at the Emirates.
 
Even if he is back in training (and I'm dubious given the injury and the "recentness" (made up word alert!) of it, I can't see him taking any part tomorrow night. Not even on the bench. If he actually is doing light training, Pep might want to keep him for the Bernabeu game?
 
Instead of asking about Ake, they ask Pep his thoughts on Jesus and Zinchenko for the millionth time this season.
