for those of us who have to work, how are they getting on?

i can see us struggling in this one tbh. we will concede at least 1.

Fernandinho surely in. Walker at CB and Cancelo at RB? Or will he take a chance on Garcia?

In these situations theres always a clamour for youth to be given a chance. In a ideal world we would all love to see it happen.
But its risky, particularly in that position. Garcia is still young and a bad experience is likely to set him back.
A young forward / winger makes a mistake and the team can recover it quickly. A young CB makes a mistake and it's a goal conceded. Then he is the fall guy.

I dont think we will see him risked. PEP doesn't have form in that area. However second guessing PEP is a dangerous sport.

Shakthar beat us a couple of seasons back with a few of the fringe players and youth team. That was a dead rubber if I remember whilst this is the opener to our campaign.

Go with a strong, experienced team please, let's get back on the winning wagon.

Ps. Will be listening to this on Talkshite tonight as I'm driving back from Manchester, darn sarf, so will have to put up with their inane shite. Hopefully Matterface commentating, at least he comes across as impartial. And no Danny Murphy, he was in tears last night

Having watched the video above last night on my phone I got the impression that he was going to play Fern at CB with otter that or possibly Garcia it was hard to understand and I may have had a few......

Pep is hard to decipher at the best of times

Thought cancelo might get a start.

Can't understand Pep. It's like he punishes a player for doing well. Bernardo - what the fuck has he done wrong?!

Glad this is a CL game. Be disappointed if this was the line up for a PL game

Bernie should be playing and otter ffs, he should of played walker in cb and Cancelo at rb, why chase him all summer and pay big bucks for him and then don't play him

ffs gundo starts again?? we should have got rid when we had the chance!!
