So once again…

Centre back at right back.
Right back at left back,
Left back on the bench!

Just why?

Plonker...

Phillips must be also questioning his decision to come to us ,why the fuck did we buy him ?

Pep doesn’t wanna win the league this season ?

He's injured.

 

[SWP's back]

Why? He's 22 not 18. Akanji already seems to have overtaken Ake and Stones in CB ranks, not sure why Alvarez isn't being given an opportunity to usurp Mahrez ect

Akanji is playing because Walker is out and he’s now our fastest defender to cover the counter.

I think Walker is on the bench. Perhaps not fully fit to start though.

Note do a bit of research before moaning

 

[Manc in London]

Grealish is a Villa fan, he will be desperate to perform against Wolves.

Villa-Wolves is now a big rivalry? When I lived in the West Midlands it wasn't. Wolves-Baggies and Villa-Birmingham are the big rivalries in the West Midlands.

We don’t play with full backs, never really have under Pep.

Cancelo and Stones are playing in deep midfield with Rodri, as our “full backs” always do. Cancelo is the best doing what he does in left midfield in the league. Stones has played there about a dozen times now under Pep and done well most of the time (Leeds at home, in the second half he was the best player on the pitch), he was a bit patchy on Wednesday but scored a screamer so gets another go.
