Rodri

Rated 8 by James for his midweek performance, where we saw the return of the tactical foul which saw us able to control counters and the tempo of the game. He put in a great performance both defensively, and with his distribution.

De Bruyne

After his rest against Nottingham Forest, I expect him to return to the starting line-up on Saturday.

Bernardo

It’s hard to leave the mighty Portuguese out of the starting XI after his most recent performances, we know he has the energy to keep going with little rest.
