    If that means some rotation here then fine.

    Blitzing the CL group stage is a waste of effort anyway with this ridiculous format. As we found out last season.
    Finally
    Me, I’m either planning a holiday or I’m on one.

            Alvarez out is a huge loss for them, as is Baena & Jimenez although they have spent big this summer but sure we all know how they are going to play so up to us to break them down.

                We’ve already met them since then in the CL, in the 21/22 group stages.

                We won both games.

                    Yep. May as well rest players for each game and aim for 20th in the CL

                      Isn't that how PSG won it last season?

                        Did they? I know they finished low down but presumed they found form as the season went on.

                        On a side note, did you see the pundits predictions for thos season's winner? We're quite clear favourites but I think that's well off the mark

                            Why? We walked the PL which is by far the strongest league in Europe. We were clearly the best team in CL last year until lack of rotation killed us. We've strengthened immeasurably over the summer and improved on our two weakest positions (in Slot's eyes). All the AI algorithms have us as most likely winners. Bookies have us favourites.

                            None of that means we will actually win it, but it certainly doesn't suggest that making us favourites is wide off the mark. Why do you think it is?

                            If we are all only happy when we are really winning in the end, when your race finishes, what life would that be?

                              A quick Google : psg finished 15th last season. I still can't believe we drew them.
