Kuro Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 3 minutes ago, 8MileBU said: At this stage of the season, with the frequency of matches and having it all to play for, I doubt training is overly strenuous, so maybe the players are fresh and don’t need a rest? Can’t say I’ve noticed anyone at Barca, Liverpool etc looking particularly fatigued. It's been a big problem for Barca overplaying their top players in the past, if they'd looked after Messi in particular but also others better they would have wo the CL one or two more times. Busquets needs a rest, Pique too. Maybe Alba and probably Rakitic and Suarez and Messi always would benefit from one. You also take the risk of injury. They're at home to Levante tonight. I think it's crazy not to be resting guys like this. I also have no doubt had Barca looked after Messi a bit better in 2013/14 and Argentina done the same (idiotic to play him in 3rd group game) then Argentina win WC14. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as if they're 1% likely to take any chances at this stage. Playing very very well at just the right time Flutie . -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, Champions League thread for this pish. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcor Roar Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 If you are 3 up by half time against Huddersfield then you are hardly expending any physical or mental energy staying on the park for the second half. I would be a bit annoyed if I was Shaqiri though. Klopp obviously doesn't trust him enough but he's a great squad player for a top side if you can keep him happy and match fit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s been carrying an injury and got a decent 20 minutes. Tough competition for places with a big squad playing very well. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Few things better in life than beating Spurs. Last side to beat them at Wembley, first side to beat them at the new place. The hammers were also the first to beat Arsenal at their new place. I was there and worried I’d be labelled a jinx and not be invited back.Arsenal, Spurs and Man United have all only got 6 points from their last 5 games. Chelsea’s draw with Burnley means they have 10It’s as if nobody actually wants those other two champions league places. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
