I don't debate with rags anymore, a smile is enough. Great things come to those that wait.
Would quite like Napoli to keep playing on Wednesday and sort out the new WimbledonIf Napoli kick off, we just tell them "well if you'd won your games, you wouldn't have this problem." By winning our games we've earned the ability to rotate. It's a reward for how good we've been and Napoli can fuck off to Thursday night.
I wouldn't mind Napoli getting through second as it means there is a chance of a slightly tougher trip for another English team early next year. Thinking 'pro city' though, surely we have to rest the 'key' players ahead of the derby? (Kompany, Ota, Silva, Fernandihno, De Bruyne, Aguero, Sane). They could be replaced by Tosin, Mangala, b. Silva, Gundogan, Yaya, Jesus & Sterling and I for one would still expect that team to get a result there?Agree with Trumpton.
The way competitions work is to remove potential competitors at the earliest chance - we should remove Napoli from the equation, yes we've beaten them twice but they're still dangerous opponents
Will Stretford field anything other than a shadow team that week - errrr No!!!!
No way should raz and gabby make that trip,i'd even not send gundy as he will play in the derby if only from the benchI wouldn't mind Napoli getting through second as it means there is a chance of a slightly tougher trip for another English team early next year.

My personal opinion is there is literally nothing to gain out of the game vs Donetsk. The game vs United could win us the premier league, the two games differ in importance significantly, and anything other than 100% focus on the derby would be a mistake.No way should raz and gabby make that trip,i'd even not send gundy as he will play in the derby if only from the bench
I hope he makes an exeption,yaya can look after the kidsMy personal opinion is there is literally nothing to gain out of the game vs Donetsk.

But Pep, being Pep, will want to win both games... and let's be honest, he'll probably pull it off!
I would happily take a loss away at shaktar now. This winning streak has to end soon and better it is there and then we can start another one!
