All the players will 'lose' their place at some stage this season ... lovely situation to be in
You and I both know there are players who's names are etched in stone on that teamsheet. Silva, Hart, Yaya and Kompany would only ever lose their place due to injury or playing a 3rd game in a week(well not Hart). Certain players are under jeopardy due to the sheer weight of competition. Not saying there won't be games for all, but when the strongest lineup is fit, rested and available there will be some players who will miss out on a game.
Certainly don't see the harm in the thread at the least, was the point I was making in an earlier thread until the fuckwit brigade got ahold of it.
There will be a 'strongest 11' which would play for instance if we were playing Barca tomorrow but even that may be a different 'strongest 11' than if we were playing v the rags when you think about it; different styles of oppo & all that. I think we could all pick a forward 4 for that strongest 11 right now, after the last game & would all pick the same one, but I wonder if we'd all pick the same one in six months ?
It's a fantastic position to be in.
