Now we're in the Champions League, kinky things may be expected of us.

Once the game is over, let's tie-up Eze, Olise and Mateta, throw them in the boot of the team bus where they can have a threesome on the way back to Body-more Heath before signing for us.
If we could put it to music, it could be next years UK Eurovision entry.

I'd be OK with Watkins taking a pen if we get one.

I hope they were all in training early today, working on set pieces for the game.

Have we scored from a corner this season ?

Of course. SJM v Luton, Lille, immediately spring to mind. We’re one of the top teams for scoring from set-pieces aren’t we?

I know we've been quite inventive but don't remember that many coming off  .

We’re joint 4th in attacking set piece goals.

I know I’ll get shot down for this, but this game is pretty meaningless. Rest as many as we can and give the 2nd string some experience. The first teamers deserve a rest

They're all about to have the summer off. Unless there's an injury worry, we should start the best available 11.

Not quite as lots will be playing in international tournaments.

Some of them will be in squads, not sure how many of them will get a large amount of playing time. They'll get extra time off after anyway. Point being, we don't need to be resting anyone unless they're genuinely fatigued and an injury risk.
