Ffs ake not fit official

Bloody hell, I don't believe this!!

 

[balotelli's back pocket]

I have to believe he's saving Stones for the weekend. Compare Stones' performance against Wolves to Garcia's against Leicester.

He cant play for us in the CL this season

Sorry missed that news whys that ?

Ake’s clearly either picked up a knock, or picked up Covid.

Disappointing - but it happens.

Why the fuck Garcia is anywhere near our team - when he’s clearly demonstrated he can’t be trusted to turn up with the right attitude anymore - is completely beyond me.

We have Stones and Harwood-Bellis on the bench - both of whom should be getting in the team before Garcia.

A terrible decision from Pep which I just can’t get behind no matter how I look at it!

Stones is not better, that's the whole point. Why else would Pep want Stones out and keep Garcia (up until the moment Garcia said he doesn't want to extend)?

The fact that Garcia communicated to the club he won't extend, will NOT change the fact that Stones (in Peps eyes) has no future in his squad. This is chrystal clear for me and has been for some time. Stones will to prove anything to Pep is too little, too late. He had four years to prove to Pep we didn't need to buy a guy like Ruben Dias, yet look what happend. Stones is done.

And Garcia proved him self?

Makes me start to believe the rumours about Spanish players being treated differently than the rest of them...

Brilliant, there's 2 Spanish players in the team.

Rodri and gundogan in midfield and garcia at the back, going to be a long night folks.

Got to love Pep knows how to provoke a meltdown on social media

The others he`s upsetting are some of the mard arses on this very forum.
