If Haaland isn’t playing why take him off with 30mins left last night

He’s got to play. He’s just hit top notch again. Leaving him out will seriously damage his rhythm again and stall him. Let him run loose and take him off after 60 mins
Ortega
Walker
Stones
Laporte
Ake
Rodri
Kev
Foden
Alverez
Mahrez
Haaland
 
Burnley are in great form and could be tricky if we're not on it. That Teller on loan from Southampton is banging in goals for fun.
 
We could just go full strength and make subs if we are winning but certain players need games. I expect alvarez Phillips and laporte all to start, not sure there will be many more changes than that though from the regulars of late. Gundo probably gets the game off with the birth of his kid.

Ortega
Walker
Lewis
Laporte
Stones
Phillips
Bernardo

There is absolutely zero reason not to go full strength, except for Ortega who has been promised the cup games
Fuck international football. They show us no respect by needlessly flogging our lads to the point of injury so they should get zero respect in return

Totally agree as it is 2 weeks to our next game. These international breaks are a pain in the bloody arse. Do fans of any clubs actually like them?
Our FA Cup record isn't as good as the other domestic competions over the past decade in truth is it, so a date at Wembley in early June would be good. If we don't win it I couldn't see anyone else stopping the rags either, and we really do not need that! (Realistically it also has the be the one of the 3 we have the best chance of winning )
No pissing about Pep, go as strong as possible, as we could well be embarrassed if we rest too many.
Our old mate has made Burnley look very good in The Championship without doubt. Hopefully though they will find the step up in quality too much (as Fulham did last season).
The optimist in me says 4:0, the Pessimist (the 80s,90s City fan in me) has a nagging 1:2 feeling..the rational one thinks 2:0 or 3:1 and a much tougher game than Liepzig.
 
I think he's gonna start Haaland you know.

Ortega
Lewis---Stones---Dias---Laporte
Foden---Bernardo---Rodri---Grealish
Álvarez----Haaland

Ortega
