[Sir peace frog]

Is Cole Palmer injured ?

Yes, think pep said cole and Phillips are injured

 

[stonerblue]

Well, it's clear now that Bernardo is going to go, nothing can be done about that.

Tenner on it?

 

[Centurions]

This is the perfect game to get him going for the season. Can’t drop him after one league game. Not exactly great for his confidence, especially when he’s obviously struggling

Dropped? He's been rotated on to the bench to allow Mahrez some game time.

 

[Gumzy97]

Weird Jacks not starting, Grealish and Haaland were starting to jell. Starting to know each others game

 

[SWP's back]

Feel a bit sorry for Jack he played well last week. But I don’t think we have a first team and subs. Everyone is “good enough” and everyone has to get games or we will lose them.

Think we 5 subs, we fans will have to get used to a squad game. More similar to rugby where there are starters and finishers for individual games.

 

[Centurions]

Yes, think pep said cole and Phillips are injured

Damn, I missed Palmer not being on the bench.

 

[stonerblue]

Grealish dropped after one game. Won’t do his confidence much good.

Barca are in for him..

 

[handsofstone]

Little bit concerning Bernie is on the bench again

Hopefully Barca can't come up with the funds as he's gone if they put in a halfway decent offer

 

[blueparrot]

Well, it's clear now that Bernardo is going to go, nothing can be done about that.

Clear as mud

 

[MarsLlama]

What does he mean, scared of getting shot ?

I assume he believes that Stones is anti-vax and that's why he wasn't on the USA tour.

Did you need to ask?

I honestly don't have the energy to keep up with stuff like vaccination status so I didn't know if it was confirmed that Stones is anti-vax and I missed it. AFAIK it's not confirmed though.
