  1. I’m so glad to see Pablo back.

    Decent lineup. An element of resting going on as expected, but if it’s looking like we can nick it we can easily be at our full strength with a round of substitutions.

    Pablo’s back, that’s great news! He gives much more as a second striker, and will be useful in the league.

  3. I hope we don’t run Disasi to the ground. We need him for the final games of the season…

    Very happy to see Pablo back but straight into the starting lineup seems a bit risky rather than easing back in. I guess just have to trust the training staff know better than I do! Would have liked to see Bowen rested.

    Thankfully the gave Diouf a full rest, fella was exhausted. I don’t think he recovered after AFCON

  6. If we get an injury, it’s over

    Also, not starting Potts after 3 games is mental, would be a nice way to get him up to speed quick and he’s the freshest

    There are so many things I wouldn’t have done with this squad, Nuno has to win the game now to justify this lineup

    Strong line up. I wouldn’t have risked Fernandes or Bowen, both are irreplaceable. Would have started Wilson, with Pablo back, he drops to the bench for City

    Not comfortable with how many first team players are starting. Bowen especially.

  9. I get the resting players. Shocked we have not given Bowen a rest tbh. He looks like he needs it

    I never really know how we should approach games like this. Yes it would be awesome to keep advancing, but I’m also wishing Bowen could get some rest.

  11. Still a strong line up – though given it’s 5 days since our last game and 5 until the next I’m surprised we chose to rotate at all

    The key of course is not picking up injuries

  12. With Pablo as a lone striker I think Nuno is hoping he’ll play like he did at Gil Vicente and be our main outlet for attacking chances. Would love a Pablo header. Surprised Lamadrid isn’t named on the bench.

  13. lol at Killman not getting a run in on the starting 11. Arguably the worst signing in the last decade. Roberto and Sanchez come to mind aswell but with our position in the league and the money we paid, Maximilian takes the cake

    Im pleasantly surprised by the team. I thought we’d rest Bowen, and possibly Fernandes as well. I wouldn’t have blamed the manager if he had rested more players
