I would say genuine opportunity. I can't see the club picking anyone just to get an extra bit of cash for them. The majority of top academy names are well known so the fact they play first team football doesn't suddenly bring them extra attention. Borges has torn it up at EDS level. Most teams in Europe will know who he is and how much they'd be willing to buy him for. If he's in the squad and gets on the pitch I'd imagine it's more because Pep thinks he's good enough and deserves it. And if he impresses on the pitch then even better. I hope we see a few lads tonight.
Would be amazing to have three young kids in there alongside the likes of Palmer, Lewis and Foden! This one is a free hit. No injuries, no suspensions, just a run out for the boys. Result is irrelevant.
I agree.
By window dressing,i was meaning 'lip service'
On the bench,but with no intention of playing them.
