I really hope it's Palmer on the left wing and Foden centrally instead of vice versa.

The Treble is the priority though.

Some have forgotten already we put a lot of effort into the Madrid game and injuries are more common when a player is tired.

I'm sure some needy supporters are not at the forefront of Pep's mind.

2 huge games coming up.

Yeah I'd like to see Foden start getting more opportunities to show his chops centrally

did you not watch the first half v madrid? We pressed like maniacs.

Some danger signs here
I'd have gone strong today and rested vs Brighton and Brentford
The danger is we lose some momentum here through naivety.
Remember the 21 final vs Chelsea

The bookies will be happy lol

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

there s a smell of penalties in the air.....perhaps 2 missed.

I thought our A team would start today and next weekend to maintain momentum but get them down to 1 match a week.

Also think this could blow up in his face down the line. He did this at Bayern twice.

Would you say the same.if the likes of Erling , Rodri and Dias picked up an injury , let's face it Rodri and KdB are in need of a rest

It gives some squad players a chance to get some game time and show their worth. Everyone would go ballistic if he went full strength and Haaland, Dias and De Bruyne got injured.

The regular starters may naturally ease off with the finals coming up. He has picked a team of players with something to prove.

Would have played B team at Brighton and gone pretty strong here and at Brentford. But I'm going to shut up about it. Nothing to be gained now. Hopefully we will sweep all regardless.

Good choice give some a rest after all it’s been intense this past few months as long as he doesn’t bugger about on cup final day I’m happy
if the league hadn’t been ours last night I’m sure it would have been a completely different team
