Lol. He did it with Balde because LB position is about the best covered atm in the whole team :lol:. If he had more positions with 2 players on good form, he would've rotated more. It's quite clear.

He would've probably rested Pedri more, but didn't trust Roberto.

Nah Alba was terrible and Balde is the better LB who has been one of most rotated players in squad.

So no need to protect his legs.

It was tactical.

Rest them today and play the obviously stronger team v United.

Alonso 'on good form' was he?

Makes no sense to claim he has to have better back ups to rotate more. When choose to play Alonso at CB ahead of Christensen and get exposed tactically.

You were claiming he did it to prioritise league... now he rotates again.

Usual.

More fool him for 'trusting' Alonso at CB beside Alba v Man Utd.

Ah yes, hindsight 20/20 as usual. Alba was very good in the last games he played.

You reckon Xavi will stubbornly double down and go with Alonso and Alba at OT again?

Hindsight?

Learn what that means.

There was plenty on the line up before the game.

Try again.

Alba is decent v teams he can stay high up as has better final ball. Ask him to get up and down pitch and he cant.

Xavi left team exposed.

If we're winning well, hope he subs off Christensen early to rest him. I CANNOT watch Alonso at CB again vs United.
