Oh fucking grow up.

You’re actually going to argue that McAtee being named the 9th sub would have made us more likely to lose?

Come the CL he’ll name a full strength side and you’ll say “yeah but we need to win this Champions League”

no - you misunderstood. Mcatee played last night because the team want to win their league. Important to get the points - but they drew.

I really don’t need to grow up but you need to calm down

Strong team vs team bottom of Championship.. Pep getting twitchy about possibly bottling the league?

We actually don't need to win it.

I think we do. I don’t want dippers to get another cup this season

Took them a minute to say we have the most expensive squad in world football! Not convinced that's true either?? Maybe on current values but certainly not on transfer fees

Think it’s just the difference where the two clubs are, and part of the cup ethos. No biggie.

If you think this is the line up and bench if we were still 8 points clear then ffs yourself.

The PL2 is entirely meaningless. It’s only reason to exist is for the production of first team players.

The mistake McAtee made was signing the contract. He’d be on the bench if he was still holding out.

Is there an issue with Walker?

They all played yesterday. Personally I’m glad pep has gone so strong we need to get our rhythm back and are playing plenty of players who have just come back from injury or have not played for a while, The kids can play a part next week v sporting

My thoughts exactly - but we “need to grow up” according to one on here :) :)

Could 3 of them not played last night and at least have had the experience and chance to play tonight instead?

It is called bringing the youth on in other circles.

Yeah, probably. McAtee had a stinker too, by his standards. Delap is obviously still getting back to fitness. He wasn’t great either.

If you say so but I think the players & club would like us to win every league. Guess Mcatee has made the same mistake as Phil
