Welp, if the club doesn't care about this match I'm not sure why I should
Meanwhile Arsenal field the strongest possible 11 that they can despite them having a trip to Chelsea on Sunday. In genuine disbelief at what I'm seeing
He rotates half the first team vs Arsenal
But why are we the only team that rests key players in big Champions League matches?TBH, Im not that surprised. We need some rest, and dropping momentum in the league for winning a reputationally big, but likely results-wise unimportant match I kinda get. It will sting us from a pride perspective, but if we want to win the league, every point counts and the game on the weekend is bigger than this one in terms of season impact
Obviously I say that now, we'll fuck up and drop poinst against the shitters in the CL in Jan.
shrug, a bit of pragmatism doesnt hurt tbh. It stings our pride a bit but we're massively lacking in squad depth - if we had to play 2 of 3 games with our first team, Venezia and Napoli are the right choices in terms of overall season impact IMHO. We barely passed Venezia obviously.But what are we the only team that rests key players in big Champions League matches?
Here's whyI don't know why people still think that an international break is something good.
Worried about, the "overrated" Saka in this one. Inter's lineup may make him look really good today.
It's really not a rocket science, we probably have the oldest team in europe fighting for major trophies, plus we are playing a style of football that would be demanding for a squad half our age. Inzaghi is the last person on earth who would rotate unnecessarily, he always sticks to his trusted players, so when he rotates this much you know it's because he has to.But why are we the only team that rests key players in big Champions League matches?
