Let’s go with this. The resting ideology is getting out of hand. I remember we played the kids at OT got beat and won nothing through ‘resting’. Top players want to play and then it’s maintainance in between not heavy training. No one has mentioned the potential effect on losing our unbeaten run days before the derby through resting.
Pep has earned the right this season to choose the squad for Shakhtar.

Why?

Because it undermines the most elite competition. Napoli and Shakhtar have still got qualification to play for so we have to be seen as competitive.

Where in the town are Blues getting together for this? is there an away friendly bar that will have us for a couple of days?

We fly out of Manchester tomorrow at 6.30, quick stop for a few beers in Warsaw, then onto the Ukraine.

From City twitter the meeting point is Freedom Square. That’s where the Thomas Cook trip is dropping us off too

And this is a dead rubber 4,000 miles away a few days before the derby

A tad harsh Karen as for one thing given the game still has something on it for Shakhtar and Napoli were we to turn up with a few kids, a couple of groundsmen and the tea lady in goal, we could get slapped legs off UEFA.

I am sure that he will be keeping to a minimum the exposure to fatigue and injury those who he expects to start amidst the effluence in the Old Toilet on Sunday. I grant you were it the shitehouse dwellers they would magically have 11 players carrying minor knocks and this would be accepted sagely by the powers that be and all would be right with the world. However we are not them and this has to be considered in every equation.

Gundogan and Bernardo have the opportunity to step up in the absence of KDB and Silva. Hoping for good performances from them.

Pep,the rags will be pissing themselves and rightly so

Fuck the rags why should we priorities that game this sends out a big message to the horrible vermin twats. We don't fear any team.

 

[west didsblue]

KDB & Silva will be rested as will Fernandinho and a few others. No way was he going to play 11 kids. That would be irresponsible.

KDB is suspended and Silva apparently isn't fully fit.

It sends out the wrong message to the team and the footballing world to play a very weakened team. Pep is lover of football and shaktar is just another game to win to keep momentum, like the derby it's just another game to him.
