Balde is doubtful, and I would rest him anyway. He was visibly exhausted last night.
And Olmo doesn't need rest imo, since he barely played vs Benfica. Not to mention he is key if we rest Pedri and Lamine.
I think they are equally important matches.
Especially considering that we will go into the second leg with a goal advantage.
We cannot afford to drop points in the league now.
Agreed. Both him and Lamine have had a dip compared to earlier in the season.
On the other hand, Pedri has been stepping up.
Hope we see their best version in the coming games.
Perhaps we would have had a new stadium by now and we wouldn't have made the transfer blunders post-Neymar? Meaning we would be in a more stable position now.
Bartomeu + Covid nearly bankrupted the club.
