He won‘t. He’ll put out what he believes is the best eleven for that day. It won’t be the first eleven.With another chance of playing the Rags in the FA Cup final, they will beat Coventry, and PL and CL results defining the PL title race and getting to the CL semi-final, Pep may put out his tired but strongest team for the FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea?
