Just watching the senior group in training - Haaland, Grealish, Kova, Gvardiol, Phillips Bobb, Lewis plus Perrone and is it Hamilton?

Not sure, but I think so.

The way traffic is I think you are about 5-1 to make kickoff!!

No problemo, just pulling up at stadium now

Susoho at RB and Lewis at LB?

Phillips getting dropped for a friendly when he’s one of the few senior players available is really quite something.

Stick a fork in Phillips, he's done.

The fact Pep would rather play Susoho totally out of position at right back than put a senior international there speaks volumes about the lack of trust.

Anyone know what sort of team AC Milan are fielding?

Relatively strong. A few starters and some bench players, one or two kids.

Susoho got decent minutes for a fringe youngster last season. That’s generally a sign that Pep trusts him. It’ll be interesting to see how he does at RB as we’re obviously looking at options to play there.

We also need to allow Lewis to look poorer at left back as it isn’t his position.

Will be good to see Perrone at 6 too.
