Lot of cutbacks from the wingers today. No idea why he sticks with it.

 

[Cheadle_hulmeBlue]

It wasn’t going to happen, but I’d have liked palmer to start.

Not usually one to comment and flap about the team an hour before the game but that looks all wrong. Two wingers on the wrong side, a right footed right back and a centre half at right back. We certainly wont be getting behind them from the wings. Hopefully Kev can pick out Erlings runs from the middle or else I think we might struggle to score today

How is Grealish on the left and Mahrez on the right, "two wingers on the wrong side"?

No Foden :/

Can only assume he's keeping him fresh to rotate back in on Tuesday. Still a bloody strong team though.

 

[OntarioBlue]

Cole is never going to get a start

I know he’s being managed but every time I see him he looks like he deserves to be out there. Tbh, I‘d rather seen him start than Mahrez.

The usual critics have already started on Grealish which is totally unfair as his last 3-4 games he has played more than well and deserves a start.

 

[Irishblue93]

Pep must be thinking of ball retention with those 2 wingers

 

[Don Karleone]

He turned up vs Southampton? Grealish needs to turn up if anything.

Grealish has done it more than once this season. I like Mahrez but he hasn't been great, so far.

It is more the combination of him and ffs

Would of put Grealish in Gundo position put palmer on the left because we all know Mahres can only play right side I’ve never even seen him play or pep try him on the left but pep no qualms of playing a kid either side! It’s a weird one! Oh and of course a pep knows more than me..
