The 'not looking good for Kalvin' stage is long since passed.

Yeah, I think that ship sailed when he came back overweight at the start of last season although it has to be said he’s not exactly done himself any favours when he has played.

I was wondering why we have two goalies on the subs bench? Anyone?

Because it fills the bench. Carson travels so he may as well be a sub if there is a spot

 

[Haaland94]

Pep resting a few, IMO. The likes of Kovacic, Nunes, Stones (if fit enough), Ake, Alvarez will all start vs Arsenal, IMO.

Well that's a better bench isn't it?

 

[Franny 1234]

Johnny Stones and Bernardo have both travelled to Germany for tonight

Great news he's on the Bench

 

[mosssideblue]

Good starting 11 with strong options avail if needed

Interesting to see the contrast in style from Wolves. Wolves, with Kovacic, Nunes, Doku etc was direct with no control. Tonight is the opposite, less direct, slower, more control.

John Boy’s back!!!
Bernie’s even more back!!!

The team axis and core is getting back to normal I hope. :-)

@ Eccles Blue back, on the crack pipe ;-)
Enjoy the game :-)

Very much looking forward to watching John Stones play football again, if he’s given a few minutes in the second half

Wow, only 64% for the win.

RBL are a decent team but I still quite fancy us to put them away.

We’ve only won twice in our last ten away games in the CL.
