They couldn’t count on it though. You could see them getting more ambitious and aggressive once they heard from the other game

He's playing regularly, he's played 90 minutes every week now for 5 or 6.I woudlnt say he was poor but something didnt click for him - think he does need to be playing regularly and not on and off so he gets some rhythm
Maybe.
Maybe the club put more importance in him playing last night, against a team wanting to win, in a team that needed to win, than playing in a game tonight that could give Garcia minutes, in what for the club was a meaningless game in the grand scheme of things ?
Why not give those minutes to Doyle and Palmer last night as well then?

Foden gives us somethign that not many of our midfielders can do (with the exception of KDB) and that is that drive forward with ball from midfield and boundless energy.....

Great result, good performance, great to top the group, but leaves a bit of a bitter taste pissing the kids about like that. Dunno if it was another weird/unnecessary sort of test Pep's conjured up but hopefully the youngsters aren't too demoralized and they stick with it instead of jumping ship like others have.
I get that we have lots of players that need minutes but would 10 or 15 minutes at the end when we're coasting in a dead rubber really have done any harm?

Then they are stupid. You expect nothing, you accept what you are given. If you are good enough and the circumstances are right then you play. Nothing more.They had expectations BECAUSE they have aspirations.

He's been used midweek only because Southgate played him midweek, I've said this a number of times now, he shouldn't be playing every 3 or 4 days at 20.i mean plying in the prem and champs league......how many league games has he started this season...cant be many

He wasn't good tonight though, maybe he's trying too hard, maybe he he just wasn't good tonight ?
I doubt he'll play on Saturday after tonight.
