[balotelli's back pocket]

why stones isn't playing well and laporte probably not up to speed

Vinny was really poor against Basel, burnley... stones has been fantastic this season.

True, but since he came back from injury he's been awful. I think the only logical choice today was either Otamendi and Laporte or Otamendi and Kompany. It looks like Pep has gone with the latter.

Harsh if Bernardo isn’t given a start. He’s been having a decent game lately.

Stones is still better suited to the way we play.

Fuck sake not Danilo at LB.

 

[lionheart]

Danilo is the man for the big occasion whereas Zincho may conceivably bottle it. Worry not coz Pep knows best.

Wish jose would do one,takes away the build up waiting for the official team news

 

[deano ou812]

Take it sterling isn’t fit enough then if that’s the team,worried about arsenal pace up top with Abamayeng against kompany Danilo and otamendi..
