Front three fresh as daisies
Sore throat according to PepGonnna be fun on the match day thread today I bet!
Hope Laporte is nothing serious.
It’s not mad though. The only way to rest KDB, Foden and Gundogan was to play Zinchenko in midfield, which then automatically meant Mendy playing left back so we could rest one of Walker or Cancelo. Laporte’s injury meant Ake had to start, and Dias’ recent game time meant Stones starting. So the back 6 outfield players pretty much picked themselves (with Fernandinho). Then Bernardo was the first to be subbed off in the last match, so it makes sense that he was the chosen big-hitter midfielder to take the last midfield spot. Aguero’s injury meant Jesus up top was a given, with Sterling and Torres the two wingers that didn’t start v Dortmund coming in. When you break it down it is the absolute perfect team for the game. Whether we win, lose or draw is irrelevant, it’s still the correct team.The mad prof strikes again. Mind you got most of the side right.
Possibly not being risked if the pitch is bad ?
