Not surprised that jack and doku are eased back, but I’m really shocked that kev starts.

Pep has to have an eye on the next game in another three days then the derby. Return from injury into a match situation has to be carefully managed to ensure that a player doesn’t breakdown, leading to more time out, he’s a human being for Christ’s sake.

were you Gordyola in 2007, if so a very prescient choice of username.

I think it will be the same formation as we'd with Nunez and Savinho playing where Grealish and Doku did , so Bernardo still out wide. People have been crying for weeks in here to see Nunes in the middle so should be interesting to see how he performs

You forgot the 'non' in front of sense.

Look at the bench and tell me that it makes 'sense' to risk players who are just back from injury.

Only the club know the relative fitness of everyone in the squad.

 

[Jung the foreman]

Fuck the midfield. Long ball over the top to Haaland every time. He'd score at least a couple.

 

[Ezy]

Dont have a good feeling about this one please prove me wrong

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

We’re not playing Arsenal, Liverpool, Brighton, Bournemouth, Madrid, Juventus or even the rags.
We’re playing this seasons Crystal Palace. They are this good….

If he has to choose to rest players for Palace, Juventus or the rags I’d imagine it’s this one you’d choose!

Time for savinho to step up, needs a goal and I think he will be fine
