Sevilla (H) - Wed 2nd Nov, 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[Tbilisi]

everyone that needs it, wrapped up in cotton wool and rested for this game.
Bernie, KDB, Cancelo need a rest.
As many kids as we can get away with.

Rodri as well

 

[Delphinho]

Do you think Borges will be in the squad?

The U19s has already won their group, so hopefully he’ll be on the bench. Pep usually go with a strong side, so I doubt he’ll play

 

[Mariosfireworks]

Rodri as well

Perhaps the club should give people back some money who have paid to see the 1st team rather than the under 23's if that's the case

Probably best they just ask for a full refund

Would probably be fair, could see the u23s for fuck all, people have paid good money for a midweek game that finishes possibly close to 10pm then have to get home and go to work the next day, the least they should expect is a decent team out

To be fair the tickets were already a lot cheaper as I'm sure the club anticipated this scenario. I'm actually surprised it's sold out as it previous seasons it wouldn't have.

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Might it be Carson time?

 

[Withnail]

Pep will play a mix of experienced players ands kids

Ortega
Lewis Dias Ake Gomez
Gundogan Phillips Grealish
Palmer Alvarez Foden

Phillips might be a long shot, but just hoping he is fit as Rodri needs a rest

All our players are decent.
Anyone who buys a ticket for any game, especially Game 6 of the group stage, shouldn’t expect anything in terms of individual turning out. Same would go for Chelsea the midweek after.

Personally I always relish the chance to see how our younger players fare playing for the first team in a big game, on tv, at the main stadium etc (rather than an U23s game).
On an occasional basis that’s equally exciting as seeing our “first XI” but maybe that’s just me.

Ok well you buy my ticket and get home at close to midnight to see the delights, last 2 games in champions league 0 0 let's go for 3 0 0 in a row, so if you want to purchase my ticket it's there
