Marseille (H) - CL | Post-Match Thread

So easy. If we had needed something and played a full strength team it could have been any score

Zero point?

You dont think having the youngsters in and around the squad, training with the top boys and getting to watch from the sidelines is an integral part of their development, "feel good factor", and gives them a great insight into what they will eventually be part of if they shape themselves?

Pretty dull affair, but job done and another win on the board with some key players rested. Hopefully we can continue with this consistency and put up a big performance at the weekend.

Praise again to Stones who continues to really prove his doubters wrong - of which I was very guilty of. He looks in phenomenal form.

Don’t want to hear Pep moaning about 5 subs again though. So frustrating having to listen about the league ‘killing the players’, only for him to bring on two subs in a dead rubber fixture with 5 subs available to him.

It was a terrible advert for the academy this evening and very disappointed Doyle/Palmer didn’t even get a look in. Zero point involving them in the squad if they’re just going to be benched.

I agree with the sentiment that we should had a couple introduced in the last 10/15 minutes but ensuring minutes means we stay fluid. How many times has Pep mentioned about resting the squad for dead rubbers and the performances drop substantially when they get reintroduced?

We can kick off about subs and not enough EDS but we also have to remember there's a balancing act to be played with playing enough and getting burnt out.
