Jordi Hiwula should have played, said it at the time and believe it now. The fact that he wasn't was because he was Spanish and cost money, where as Jordi was local and cost nothing. If you think that is wrong then the only explanation is that Pellegrini rated Pozo better than Hiwula which is a ridiculous decision on another level.

Wasnt he still at Yeovil (or had only just returned after being slagged off by their manager)?

That's not necessarily true. We got over 20 points in 11/12 which we lose next year. We have only 11 points this season so far. We are ranked 16th at the moment so depending on who automatically qualifies for Pot 1 by winning their league, theoretically we could drop down.

We do get another 4 or 5 for getting to the knockouts.

Aren't we on 15 now? 4 points for qualifying for group stage, 5 points for qualifying for knockout stage and 2 points for each win.

We are on 11, as Mooba says we will get another 4 for reaching last 16. However if we lose remaining 2 games and draw say PSG or Athletico we might struggle for more points?

I agree there is value blooding younger players. I just think we still should be going for more coefficient points so we are guaranteed Pot 2.

Resting the odd player might help us win the league and guarantee pot 1 though.
