I think this shows that we have been fortunate in not losing key players Rodri , Dias , KdB etc to injury in the 2nd half of the season . We have a very weak bench.

Rico has been good today. Playing everywhere.

I've not shed a single tear in regards to today's match/performance/selection. Perhaps I just realise resting players before 2 huge games is a necessity. If they lose the games it won't be because they had a bit of a rest. We can't all be as stupid as you.

Great goal Foden, get in!

This game, and the previous two, are obviously meaningless and the most important thing is us not getting any injuries. But its hard to see much positive about us being poor (at least poor enough to assume we would lose both finals if we don't play considerably better) in 3 straight games before the finals. I think its easier said than done to just start playing well again when its a game that means something. Sure we have rested a lot of players, but I would have been a lot more confident before the finals if our level hadn't dropped a considerable level in these 3 dead rubbers. Hopefully, and perhaps likely, our team will come out well rested and full of energy when the finals come, playing at the same level we have seen us play the weeks prior to this one. But until I see it, I will at least be a bit worried about 3 straight performances like these.

Will we ? Okay carry on.

Are you saying we won't?
