Obviously field a stronger lineup than vs. Crewe, but I wouldn't risk players like Mings (too injury prone) and I would definitely limit game time for Wesley, McGinn and Grealish. We should still be able to win. Only if they put out a weakened team they are an established PL team we are not (yet) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KenjiOgiwara Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 I'd probably play a full strength team this round, maybe rotate 2-3 players where we got adequate quality, i.e. Marvelous, Davis, Konsa. We're in football to win things ultimately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mic09 Posted August 29, 2019 Share Posted August 29, 2019 Play a full strength team. The lads will have to get used to playing mid week when we are away in Madrid on a Tuesday night next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
