Anyone know whats wrong with serg?

Isolating

 

[Out on blue 6]

Fair to say Peps not messing about with a particular weakened team. Hopefully all over by 60 minutes to get the kids on. Matchday forum will explode if a first team starter gets injured

 

[Mayor West]

XI | Steffen, Cancelo, Dias, Walker, Mendy, Rodrigo, Mahrez, De Bruyne (C), Foden, Bernardo, Jesus SUBS | Ederson, Stones, Gundogan, Fernandinho, Zinchenko, Delap, Harwood-Bellis, Nmecha, Mbete

Would have liked delap to start but hey ho

Why the hell is kev playing , i despair sometimes

It’s an odd one but hopefully 3 up but half time and then take him off.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

In normal circumstances Doyle, Palmer and Delap would probably play, but one is isolating, one only came back yesterday, and Jesus hasn't played in two weeks and needs the minutes more than Delap.

he could easily have played bellis instead of Dias. And could have rested de Bruyne

Well, hopefully this will be done and dusted in the first 20mins with that line-up.

No Sergio.

Why KDB, Dias and Cancelo? Shirley Harwood-Bellis deserves a start?
