Phillips not ready and Junior and Llorente on the treatment table.

I hope Raph can not give the ball away as much or we will get ripped open.

Just when I think I have figured Bielsa out he zags. I'm guessing he doesn't consider Philips match fit, Firpo it seems may get integrated slowly. One wonders if DMF is MB's long term view for Koch and push Kalvin up

Think we will struggle to control this without Phillips. Hope the boys prove me wrong though!

Junior is on the bench, so he's fit enough for that...

Phillips has been playing during the summer, he must be match-fit as he only had three weeks off :(

I can understand Firpo on the bench as he has only played 45 minutes of a game.

I don't get the omission of Kalvin :?

I mean a conspiracy theorist might postulate we're keeping him safe to sell ... Or it could have been agreed he'd be eased in slowly after the Euros ... Or he's slightly off colour. Or MB thinks he didn't come back fit enough

3 on that bench should be playing in the championship, roberts, forshaw, costa. desperately need good strong midfielders, 2 required minimum.

Massive risk by MB.

No KP.
No Firpo

Worried Cjay

No Llorente either.

Nice to see Summerville on the bench though

Forshaw on the bench & must be a million miles away from playing.

Sorry but after 2 years out Forshaw should be nowhere near a Premier league bench.

The man is a million miles off match fit and that is assuming even fully fit he is good enough to begin with.

This midfielder needs arriving soon
