Stick with what works. Defender stepping into midfield with Rodri - rather than the ‚double pivot‘ with high and wide fullback(s).
I‘d go strong and hope to make subs early. Be nice to rest the likes of Rodri from the start, but don‘t think we can. Maybe bring in De Bruyne and rest Foden. I‘d probably keep Stones back for next week.

I'd like to see Stones get 20 to 30 minutes in his legs before Madrid game.

Jack looked decent so did Doku
Bernardo didn't play to his usual high standards so that would be my only change come Saturday. CTID

I see that Richard Keys thought Jack was terrible.

I don't get this analysis at all. I thought Grealish put in a very good performance where he kept the ball, manoeuvred their defence about and added to the tempo of our play. I thought he showed us exactly what we've been missing for much of this season.

Haha, classic keys.

Never an easy place to play and it'll likely be a fairly physical game.

1-3 not anymore, these are in a poor run of form. Should be beating these.

Should be. However, it has never been the easiest place to go.
