10 changes for the Leicester game and then 10 again tonight vs Liverpool. Trying to manufacture Leicester finishing above Liverpool. Thought there used to be penalties for fielding an under strength team ???

I mean they played on Tuesday and are expected to play on Thursday, which is absolutely mental.
Of course there were going to be massive changes.

The 10 tonight is the change BACK from the Leicester game. Obviously. The point here is that they played a massively weakened team vs Leicester and a full strength team vs Liverpool and therefore gave Leicester an advantage when they are competing against Liverpool for a top four finish

Pretty sure Spider's response takes away any debate. It's named squad, simple as.

They are mentally tired and fatigued so they have to rotate.

Why are we calling the manager of The Shit by his Christian name and our player of the season by his surname?

They have a squad and the manager can use it how he sees fit.
I don’t get why it bothers anyone.

Ridiculous jam-up of games lasting until the 23rd. Then there's a pesky FA cup and then some other Chumps league thing. It's not going to do our Euro chances one bit of good.

Doesn't matter to me but was a blatant attempt to favour Leicester over Liverpool I don’t think it was so much that as that they were always going to put out a stronger team against their biggest rivals than against a side they don’t have anything like that kind of rivalry with.

Exactly my point It wasn’t done with shafting Liverpool in mind though so much as of course you’re going to want to beat your biggest rivals. What team wouldn’t?

The difference between a top manager in Pep and an average one in ole.
Pep just plays to his strengths and attacks. Ole shits himself in big games and still persists with two holding midfielders. Once that useless Fred goes off the balance of the side look much better.
Sure someone on here said Fred was excellent not too long ago. 🤣 I wouldn't have him down stoke.
Southgate will be the same. Instead of playing our excellent attacking players and midfielders in the summer, he too will shit himself and play two holding midfielders, invite pressure and still lose. Just play to your strengths.

He would not be very popular amongst fans if he put out a weakened side v Liverpool. Amazing that the general feeling being Salah has had relatively a poor season yet he is joint top scorer in the Prem
