What about Barkley?

Why didn't Barry take the pen?

Sancho, Mings and Martinez all trained today.

[Baldy]

It's said every week in football, A two goal lead is a dangerous lead. Bologna are no mugs and know they have to score goals.

We can not afford to make too many changes. Complacency is our biggest threat but Unai will not let that happen and will make changes as soon as he considers tie won to protect booked players.

Bizot

Bogarde
Lindelof
Pau
Maatsen

Douglas Luiz
Onana
Tielemans
Buendia

Bailey
Abraham

Sancho in for Bailey if he's fit enough.

Exactly this team for Thursday. Rogers needs a rest anyway and we also need to protect yellow card situation.

Unai apparently disagrees with you both. In the presser he’s said he’s choosing the best players because they can’t miss a game we don’t qualify for.

Pfft, what the hell does that bozo know anyway.

Tbf, could be mind games. He’ll probably leave all 4 at home and play a 12-year old in goal.
