One thing Pep does (which is great) is never hide behind a statement like we were giving fringe players a run out / try etc. Everyone is treated as a first team player even though players like Gomez , Ortega, Palmer are fringe players in the squad. This does us no favours media wise as there 2 x team thing rolls on without being questioned by is. But fuck the media. What it does do is ensure no hiding place for fringe players...makes yhem stronger and better..or they find a lower level to play such as Burnley.

Fuck the media is the best advice for many on here.
 
If Pep wants this flexible midfield option (4 at the back without the ball, switching to 3 when we have the ball) then he needs to play Philips and Rodri with a back 3 of Ake, Stones and Walker. When we lose the ball,Rodders drops to make a 4 and Ake moves to left back. This leaves us 4 defenders who can actually defend and means we don't have to play Gomes (who is so far away from being good enough at this point its frightening) or Cancelo who is frankly a liability defensively as he makes the same mistake time and again with predictable results.
 
Gundo’s comments last night talking about lack of desire matching up with Pep’s body language comment. Hopefully they can get this sorted out
