That bench looks something out of a school team.

We can only do our best

He really loves Akanji and doesn't trust Cole

I agree about Akanji but Cole played in the week, so i would've thought most people would've picked Alvarez ahead of him for this one.

Idk how Pep could watch Akanji there versus Sevilla and go right back to it... I think it will be a more traditional back four... I hope, anyway.

If there is one thing we should take from the last few seasons.
Trust the boss.
He gets it right far,far more times than wrong.

It's called an Academy

Yep you could spend 90 mins talking crap to Phillips ;-)

Wonder if Tnt tells everyone how much our bench is worth ?

Well it's a designer bench not a B&Q one so coupla thou I reckon .

Our bench is woeful tonight. Great news Ruben is back but we are so lightweight in midfield.

Not if you are the kind of fan that would like to see some youth brought forward and given game time but I appreciate there are others that like us to buy every player under the sun as well.
