Barcelona started 7 of their kids & won against Madrid


Lets do the same against Spurs

GK- Ortega
LB- Wilson-Esbrand (played in the EDS 5-0 win today) or Braithwaite (if JWE isn't ready to go)
CB- Ake
CB- Stones
RB- Rico
CM- Wright
CM- Gundo
CM- McAtee
RW- Foden
CF- Haaland
LW- Nunes

Honestly, no idea what will happen. Hopefully 2-1 win.

Maybe we'll see an academy debut. Winger Alfa Ruprecht is one I'm looking at. He's been playing really well for the reserves lately.

EFL Trophy Tuesday so we might not even have some of the younger lads available

Pep could hold a handful back from that game if they are going to play on Weds. No harm in throwing a couple of extra u18s into the EDS for the EFL trophy game.

The "7 kids" in question:
Iñaki Peña (25) - 100 career appearances
Pau Cubarsí (17) - 37 Barcelona appearances, 4 Spain caps
Alejandro Baldé (21) - 91 Barcelona appearances, 7 Spain caps
Marc Casadó (21) - 83 career appearances
Pedri (21) - 156 Barcelona appearances, 28 Spain caps
Fermín Lopes (21) - 88 career appearances, 2 Spain caps
Lamine Yamal (17) - 65 Barcelona appearances, 17 Spain caps

Hardly the same as throwing in a bunch of debutants from the EDS, is it?

This will be closer to the XI and not the youth team fantasies some are having.

Don't think JWE will start though as he has enough 1st team options in defence.

Bit of a free hit this one. Our squad isn’t big enough to compete on 4 fronts so unfortunately this competition is far from priority this season. Expect plenty of rotation from Pep with a few of the younger lads given a start.

Will be nice to sit back and watch with the pressure off for a change!
