Cannot see anyone who played most of the game starting apart from possibly Konate . PL 26-8-2 CL 9-0-0 FAC 6-0-0 - W LC 5-0-0 - W
If City win tomorrow, play the under 18’s and the unused subs from todays match for the next 2 games. Have everyone rested and fit for the CL final
It's tricky. I don't think it helps particularly to have too much time off. Players need to be match fit, not merely fit. Of course at this stage of the season there's a high risk of exhaustion so this is where the coaching and medical staff come in - getting the balance right. If City win tomorrow then yeah, we need to rotate those who are at risk of burn-out, but there'll be some who benefit from keeping ticking over.
Ridiculous that we have 2 more league games. What ever happened to fa cup being show piece final of the season followed by the CL.
this actually felt more like a showpiece than many recent ones as no other in PL games today unlike some recent ones .
Origi, Bobby, mini front 3 Elliott, Milner, ox/Jones kostas, matip, ?, Gomez kelleher entire team will rest if city win
I would say it's because of the world cup and the meed to finish the season a little earlier than usually but we've seen the FA Cup final take place before the final league games a few times in recent years.
Who is realistically fit for this game? Kelleher in goal after Alisson took a knock Trent may have to play to allow Gomez central Konate or Matip partnered with Gomez Tsimiskas to play Milner will play Jones too Don't know who is fit to make up the mid 3 Firming up top Origi too Maybe Minamino with them
If Man City win as expected... Keheller Gomez Matip Konate Tsimikas Milner Hendo Jones Jota Origi Bobby
If they drop points at all, we have to go strongest and hope they drop points against Villa. If they win today, we play the reserves.
