I don't think it will. He'll play whoever he thinks needs to play for sharpness on Friday. I think we will be close to "full strength", if there is such a thing. Would be nice to get the game won early and make three subs on the hour. It's all about the 29th May now.it'll all boil down to the rags next 2 results what the team is
if the rags win the next two games i think he'll have to go full strength, we cant afford another dropped bollock if thats the case, if we dont need the points he can have a tinker with the line upI don't think it will.

I don’t believe that’s how he’s working. He knows the league is won sooner or later and won’t pick a team to “win it”. By the same token he won’t tinker, he’ll pick every team with the final in mind- whether that be resting players or keeping them in Rythmn.if the rags win the next two games i think he'll have to go full strength, we cant afford another dropped bollock if thats the case, if we dont need the points he can have a tinker with the line up
Not a prayer he doesn’t pick our strongest 11 if the scum win both their games this week. The players will have had best part of 10 days off for Christ’s sake, he needs to keep them sharp. Once the Geordies are beat and the league is in the bag then yes he will use the last games to keep certain players ready.I don’t believe that’s how he’s working.

Rags results should be non issue regardless .if the rags win the next two games i think he'll have to go full strength, we cant afford another dropped bollock if thats the case, if we dont need the points he can have a tinker with the line up
Personally, I hope the rags get beat every game, not just the ones that mean we win the title. It also doesn't matter to me what order we win enough points to finish first in, just that we get them. We won't be winning this title because they lose tonight or Thursday, but because over the season, we've won more points than them and everybody elseits not how we should be winning the title hoping utd get beat ??? we had the title rapped up and bagged up weeks ago on its way to the eithad. this city team is 15 to 20 points better than anybody else in the premier league. but the champions league football took over and pep wanted to protect his best 11 and forget all the hard work in the premier league
ok its a 38 game season and you don't base winning the title on one game. but for me the city squad should be winning the title in our games and not watching utd lose and pick up the title. pep could have played his best 11 vs leeds and still beat PSG then rest players for hte final. now i feel pep got no choice but to play a strong 11 vs newcastle away. thats why am giving utd both wins this week and pep would have been pushed into a corner with no choice
I want that match to be a draw to help keep the dippers out of top 4.
I don't want either of those teams to win a game.
I am quite happy to win the league on goal difference...
What I’m saying is that he will play our strongest team (apart from anyone with a niggle) whether they win or lose. He won’t make his decision on the back of it.Not a prayer he doesn’t pick our strongest 11 if the scum win both their games this week.
