    Don’t the first teamers need to get some minutes their belts?

    Exactly,a bit of practising passing to your teammates and shooting on target wouldn't go amiss.

    on a side note, Barca in their AGM have just approved a loan of 1500m€, this from a club that can not afford to keep their best players and have reduced the wages of the ones that stayed!

    Guess it depends on who's fit to return against Wolves.

    The match against Norwich (a) has now become far more important than a Carabao Cup game.

    What we need is a settled side este.

    We played well against Watford but then had to make 3 changes for the next game at Southampton. Had we been able to put the same eleven out I'm sure the result would have been different.

    Totally agree, we just end up square pegging.
    I think we might have to go shopping in January, I know it's not the best time, but we are still missing a class no8 and maybe a RB.

    Agreed but do you throw them in cold or let them play some time?

    Phillips & Firpo can hopefully go straight back in.

    Bamford might need some minutes, to be honest though I've no idea when he's likely to be fit again.

    Latest in Junior Firpo is another 2 weeks, which isnt good if true. Ayling not going to be back yet and when he does he will be in the 23s. We really need a top midfielder in January and someone who already plays a version of Bielsaball so not long to learn. Square pegging is bad news its not working. Phillips and Raphinha will be back I hope but the mention of Kalvin having a hip injury too ffs? Is it time to stick Raphinha in at 10 or even James because having no LB this season in the 23s we need Dallas back there.

    small squad is in danger of killing this season

    I’d have Raphinha at 10 in the blink of an eye, I’d have James, Raphinha and Harrison alternating positions and confusing the **** out of the opposition. Annoyingly you and I both know it’s not Bielsas way and Roberts will start

    Id also start Joffy and play Rodrigo in midfield.
