Mangala has to play, you can't compare the speed and power of a 23 player against a 33 player. Remember the Chelsea game, he totally bossed Costa, and he is a hard one to get bossed.

He is on the bench, so most likely dropped. I am guessing Fernando isn't going anywhere near the halfway line and will sit right in front of the back 4 and just tackle and tackle.

and hopefully find a blue shirt after.

cheers

No Fernandinho, shocked at that.

Pellers biggest night so far, hope he's right.
