I wouldnt mind seeing us rest a few for Saturday. We can afford to lose this one and still top the group. Beating dippers more important
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This.
Rest whoever to make sure the team to play the Dippers is: same team as Chelsea but have Brown as false 9, Phil in midfield, Jesus on the wing.

Worry about the CL after we tear the Dippers a new arse hole.

Priority has to be the league game with Liverpool. Rotate the squad against PSG to ensure we can play our strongest team on the weekend.

We should still qualify from this group without too many issues.

Plus we all know deep down we will not be winning the CL so the league has to be the priority.

Would not be surprised to see Stones for laporte. Fern in for Rodders and Sterling getting a game. Keep the starting 11 for scouse same as Chelsea lets have them bastards sunday. That said, Pep will want to win tonight, beat Brugge twice and we can relax with two games to spare

I agree with you mate. It’s a win win for Pep PSG away you keep the whole squad onside. Tough one to not get right. Unlike the scum bus driver who is scared shitless.

Story in the MUEN that Stones will have to wait, I reckon it'll be unchanged from Saturday, which is the right call for me.

After the dippers game there's two weeks before we play Burnley. Our players are fit enough to play 3 times in 9 games, so play our best side (ie the one that beat the chavs) tonight and Sunday then pull them from the national squads as "injured" the way some of our rivals do. 13 days rest, they'll be fit to go again after the international break. Simple.

Yes they are fit, but also human. Look at the level of performance Bernardo Silva put in against the chavs, I cant see him being able to do that three times in a row in such a short space of time, and on Sunday we will need him at this best.
For this game, Bernardo, Rodri and Cancelo should be rested and saved for the Vermin game.

My main worry for this one is that they’ll try and injure some of ours. They started to try towards the end of the second leg last season.

Chelsea’s season wasn’t over on Sunday and they were trying to injure us from minute one?

C’mon it’s schoolboy stuff Azpul acting like a hard man when in reality there was not one tackle in that game. It’s non contact. The PSG game was edgy after Rhiad finished it but the players saw it coming a mile away. Fernandinho is the last enforcer to ever play in the Prem. And he is also a top footballer.

Did you watch the match Hazy? It wasn’t just him, it was a number of Chelsea players that tried to injure ours.

If we go 2 up and you think PSG won’t start booting us you’re silly.

PSG are a really nasty bunch of entitled, over privileged, ego driven prima donnas.
They will put the boot in if they see the match sliping away from them.
Only plus is that we will know what to expect and I expect Fern will be playing.
