I'm really surprised no one has come in for Nat Phillips, he'd do a cracking job for a mid tier PL team.
The only player on their team who has looked vaguely ok has been HernandezI wouldn't be surprised if Milan are in for him after this game, £40 million should get the deal done although I'm not sure Phillips would want to drop down to Scottish league quality football.
Edit: Still 10 minutes left but Kessie's not impressed me in either game. Might stand out in the Italian league but he'd disappear in ours.
slightly in jest, but given how slow the Italian league is, he'd be great there.I wouldn't be surprised if Milan are in for him after this game, £40 million should get the deal done although I'm not sure Phillips would want to drop down to Scottish league quality football.
That was beautiful from Walker. Frustrated ****housery in a pointless game, what a way to showcase your maturity as a player!
Henderson, Wan-Bissaka, Bailly, Matic, Shaw, Van de Beek, Mata, Amad ,Lingard, Greenwood, Elanga | Subs: Heaton, Kovar, Hardley, Mengi, Savage, Iqbal, Shoretire.
Well complete change, not even got the first teamers on the bench. 4 appearances from the 5 outfield players on the bench
I think Matic is playing at CB with a Mata VdB pivot?
Interesting team, but makes a lot of sense. I bet he's wanted to focus on training with the main squad, and letting them recover from playing 3 games in 8 days.
Huge chance for Van de Beek to shine.
Interesting to see Amad Diallo too...had forgotten about him and he cost 37m.
