Remember this is an early KO

Can’t imagine it’ll be a thriller. Just hoping to not pick up injuries or daft suspensions

Should be a comfortable win but we aren’t usually great in dead rubbers so could easily be a draw. Be surprised if we lose though

3-0 Foden Akanji Alvarez
Edit

2-1 Grealish Bobb

Micah Hamilton starts.

XI | Ortega Moreno, Lewis, Stones (C), Akanji, Gomez, Phillips, Kovacic, Nunes, Bobb, Grealish, Hamilton

SUBS | Carson, Grant, Walker, Dias, Ake, Rodrigo, Alvarez, Bernardo, Gvardiol, Foden, Alleyne, Susoho

Stones starts as Captain. Didn’t start at the weekend. I just hope he’s ok for the Palace match. Otherwise predictable. Kovacic Nunes Phillips in midfield. Bobb starts.

I see Stones is starting, I think some will be unhappy with that

I am one of them. Saturdays game is far more important. Why risk him?

As long as he doesn't pick up an injury and Akanji doesn't start over the weekend

I can only assume Pep feels he needs minutes. Didn’t start at the weekend though.

I'm another of them. Why risk Stones - fucking stupid

Rhythm as pep would say.
Not sure I get the beat.

I think he needs minutes, he was awful against Villa. Shouldn't be too hard for him tonight, he could get injured training.

He would get injured taking a slash.

99.9% of us know that risking stones is a mistake

Nunez showing a bit of pace down the right early doors. Promising

Stones looking very rusty. Exactly why he needs a game like this tonight.

Red Star unbeaten in 122 domestic league games at home.

Some fucking achievement that is

The C team hasn't started too badly.

Micah Hamilton with a lovely goal on his debut

Who needs Nunes

He seems to have sorted himself out a bit now. Reading the game a lot better.
