Suspected as much ... but wasn't going to pass up such an opening... also won our CL group and went out in the Q/F to a dodgy pen to Atleti ... if only we'd managed to hold on to Kante ... if wishes were fishes ...
Good luck this time around btw - will be rooting for you![]()
We'll see what happens. Think we have potential to do alright in either PL or CL (as in making a fist of it) not both.
Saturday was first time in well over a decade that we actually had some really decent options for some positions to come off the bench and effect a game that was actually tactical as opposed to a first teamer being eased back in due to an injury and was so refreshing to see.
We were able to bring Wilson on for Isak, Barnes on for Gordon. Now have options with the keeper position with Dubravka and Pope and options at right back with Tripps and Livermento (Hopefully) and once Willock is back fit he'll be an option for Joelinton.
We've not had that sort of option since Ashley rocked up.
Still well shy of the traditional big 6 but coming along nicely.
