  1. Really happy about semenyo but haaland should be rested after half time if we’re up. Man’s tired fr

  2. Kill the game within the first half please lads , would like most these to get a break in the second half for the derby next week

  3. Semenyoo!!! But seriously? Haaland? Against exeter? Maybe Pep is hoping he scores a couple to get back into form but man I’d sure have loved to rest him here

    Would’ve liked to see a few more kids, at least on the bench if he wants to start strong

    lol people were talking about Haaland not even on the bench and semenyo maybe having some minutes off the bench. What’s this lineup lmao

  7. Is Pep trying to use this to build some partnership between Semenyo and Haaland? I don’t think Erl should play more than the first half…

  8. surprisingly a strong lineup, would’ve thought that at least some of that front 3 be rested for next week games

  9. I’m surprised we went with this strong of a lineup given the two other games we have this week. Hopefully we’re up big at the half and get some guys off

  10. Strong line up. Probably pep wants to try a tactic or adjustment  and this is the only opportunity to do so. 

  11. I know Semenyo has played a ton recently but I like giving him some minutes in a game like this to get acclimated. Hopefully the boys can get this wrapped up early so we can get some subs out there.

    Surely they get benched at half time cause how are we going to line up Vs Newcastle. I would be expecting Haaland to play at St James Park then we got United

  13. Aside from Semenyo ofc, one thing I wanna focus on is Cherki and Reijnders. I really wanna see how good they are off the ball and their pressing. We’ve been struggling since Kdb and Gundo went out of our midfield, they did *so* much defensive work, and Bernardo has struggled to do it alone lol. Hoping they step up to it.

    It can be better to start with a strong lineup and if the team is able to win by two or more goals, then make a lot of subs.
