I may have disrespected Huddersfield when I suggested how good a team did we need to put out there today. But as Pollo says, there are players who perhaps didn't need to play.
I think Poch is saving Lamela for Barca, I can't believe the last time a side worked as hard as huddersfieldWhat must Lamela do to get a game? Both Alli and Eriksen out and he cant get in? A nd we are playing a rather defensive lineup against a supposedly weaker team?
Lucky or not depends on next week. We may catch ourselves facing the full wrath of a Barca rebound or beat them whilst they r in disarray.I said a scrappy win would do, I'll take it. We were poor again though lets be honest. Goals aside I thought the first half we were horrendous.
Luckily Barca seem to be on a bad run at the moment, we really need at least a draw against them or we are in serious trouble. Hope PSV get something against Inter...
Vert has a hammy issue and Dembo is Quad related. Alli was a reoccurring hammy issue possibly due to being rushed back. Poch has said Wanyama and Winks deputised fine....So why not start them ?
I guess they would have broken down anyway but we have been saying Vert is playing too many games. Dembo will always be in and out to be fair.
I seriously don't fancy this Barca match now.
Bring it on. This is what football is all about.
