I reckon he'll rest aguero, dino clichy and komps. maybe even kev. don't forget the guy is a loon.
Bayern, Athletico and Real all rested several players during this weekend matches.
Just because some of his decisions are naive or rigid doesn't mean everything he does is rubbish. This is the champions league final at stake, and we are in with a good chance.
The risk is in fact that he does play aguero and kdb, they were visibly knackered by the end of the first leg and no way can they be at 100% recovery for next week if they play Sunday as well.

the difference is, the other 3 side can rest players because they are guaranteed a place in the competition next year we arent
 
Well the margin for error is minimal now.
The fact that were in this position and the fact that this thread exists is unbelievable if were honest.
Too many shit performances, injuries and abysmal games vs the teams at the top mean that our hopes hang by a thread.
Tomorrow is more important than Wednesday but I fear MP will ride roughshot with his team tomorrow and by next Sunday we could be staring down the proverbial barrel

Somewhat melodramatic. Did you see how piss poor Arsenal played today?

Yes but unlike their annual surrender when they play the Rags they always turn up for us.
My fear is we come unstuck tomorrow, get taken to extra time Wednesday and it could go horribly wrong.

Yes it could easily go wrong but isn't this why we support this team and invest so much time, money and emotion, for these very opportunities? I hope we rest most of the team and give everything on Wednesday. The alternative? Play full strength tomorrow-maybe still lose and pick up injuries and/or leave the team short of energy against Madrid. As I said elsewhere there is no point finishing top 4 if when given the chance to go all the way we don't give ourselves the best possible chance.

Totally agree. Need a fresh and strongest team for Wednesday.
