Rest up for Wednesday please pep.

Rest up for Wednesday but play our most important player in Rodri who’s exhausted and has started almost every game this season ?

Odd.

 

[bluemoon32]

Agreed! Play a vastly weakened team today get beat and then get beat on Wednesday would be completely pointless! Today is our most important game of the season not Wednesday! Players can also pick up injuries in training so with all due respect, millions is spent on THE BEST recovery machines etc in the world? It’s a game in the northwest as well so no huge travel time? Make 6 changes today and we get beat imo but play well, win and it puts the arse under huge pressure and that’s something they don’t seem to handle too great at the moment, especially if it’s going wrong at home and their fans get on their backs.

Yep

 

[Haaland94]

This would be my team with Madrid in mind:

Ederson
Lewis Akanji Laporte Gomez
Bernardo Alvarez Gundogan
Mahrez Haaland Foden

We must make sure we have height in the team today. We know that they will bombard our box with free kicks and corners. We need Stones, Laporte and Rodri.

Sense at last.

Bernardo Alvarez Gundogan
Mahrez Haaland Foden

Gomez at LB is suicidal

 

[yerwot?]

score early, the hysterical fans will turn on the manager\owner\ players. The blip of a result last week doesnt wipe out years of under-achievement. Wont happen, but would love to see us try a counter-attacking strategy, we have the players to be devastating on the break. Injuries are the only fear. Time to scrap the Z-car dirge !!!

 

[Eccles Blue]

THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD.

We WIN every game!! EB has spoken. ;-) :-)

*rofl* as if me speaking makes a difference. I didn’t win JB’s shirt, you lovely people didn’t keep your fingers crossed for me did you?! :-)

Odd.

We don't have anyone else who is good enough.

..................Ederson
Lewis.....Akanji.....Dias.....Laporte
...........Bernardo......Phillips
Mahrez..........Foden...........Grealish
...................Alvarez

Rodri is knackered and needs a match off
Kev is too important for Wednesday to play today
Our big centre forward hasn't scored for two games and is bang out of form, so needs to be dropped

On Wednesday same team as the 1st leg with the exception of Foden for Bernardo
