Inter (H) - Wed 18th Sept, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

Very surprised foden isn’t starting

 

[blueste41]

Are we all ready to admit something happened behind the scenes with Phil?

I'm not going to speculate what, but I find it very hard to believe he's being left out for this long from being sick/still not 'match fit'.

There was a story when he was first “ill” about a prem player doing the dirty on his other half, I found it coincidental then….

Bugger Belgium.

I’m more concerned with it catching up with him for the Arsenal game. I think think a rest for him today would have done him good for Sunday.

If players were dropped for fucking around it’d be five a side

 

[Fordyboy46]

Still no Phil, not sure what is going on why he's not getting a start

There are about 500 PL players but you decided it was Phil??

 

[Jonas.shaffer]

Are you Phil’s doctor? You don’t know anything about his condition so shut the fuck up

I didn't say I did, did I? I asked why Phil isn't ready to play despite being back and training longer than Rodri, which is a perfectly reasonable thing to wonder.

 

[discopop]

He's the PFA Player of the Year. He's been back in training for well over a week now. I find it odd after Pep has said for years he doesn't need time to be fit, etc. Why is Rodri ready and able to play?

What’s him being PFA player of the year got to do with anything? If you are looking for engagement you’d probably be better posting this kind of nonsensical shit on X

 

[Vienna_70]

Great vote of confidence for Rico.

Bugger Belgium.

What, all of it ?

 

[blueste41]

Purely because the story coincided with when he was first ill. I didn’t/haven’t decided it’s him I just speculated.

It's not that. Nothing dodgy.

[urban genie]

So are we wearing this shite definately maybe kit as rumoured?

 

[Roy Munson]

He bummed a rhino

Stop! You're giving me the horn.

There were all sorts of stories flying around, which admittedly has impacted my thinking, possibly for the worse. One user on this forum said, "He's not actually sick," but wouldn't elaborate further. There were other rumours on Twitter, as well. I'm well aware that rumours are just that, so I apologise if I offended anyone. I want to see him back out there like everyone.

 

[AliBobbyJ]

What, all of it ?

Just whoever keeps over-playing him.

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

Watching the highlights inter never really got a sniff, which is weird because on the night we were all holding our breath

Never got a sniff? Rodri and Dias kept us in it about 3 times at the end.

No need to apologise, it’s a discussion forum nobody fact checks you and anyway far more out there shit gets posted.

Walker plays against Arsenal I reckon. Would have liked to see Savio - Doku on the wings tonight but you can’t really complain about the starting 11.
