Nyoni on the bench.
Robertson on the bench.
No need today though. Only issue was Macca but clearly he’s fit enough to get 60+ mins today
Yeah sure, but explain the two right backs on the bench.
Against Burnley away, not Chelsea away, Burnley.
Slot isn't gonna rotate unless he has to. We saw it last season.
We're just getting into the flow. 6 games in 17 days - there will be a lot of rotation.
If we’re unusually ahead and in control of the game, Slot should use all his substitutions and start the process earlier than usual.
Atletico is always a rough game and the players have racked up some minutes, and air miles, for their countries.
We should be smashing these. No last minute please!

Arsenal had Rice on the bench.
Spurs, Richarlison.
Slot doesn't take risks, it's good in a way, but we all know how our players usually look at the end of season.
Be interesting if the moon collided with mars. Both things are exceptionally unlikely to happen though
Don't hold your breath.
Salah is getting 90 mins today.
Sorry for spamming the thread with my complaints but we play our next game on Wednesday. After that lunch time kick off on Saturday. When is this supposed rotation supposed to happen?
The benefit is soon we'll have Isak or Ekitike on the bench, as well as Macca or szob. Just need to ride it out til then
Yet 2 of them have played match winning roles from the bench in the 3 games so far.
Have a little respect man come on.
Frimpong returned from injury 2 days ago and can play RW.
Bradley played 176 mins for NI during the international break after just returning from injury.
It’s not rocket science that they start on the bench.
Slot was on camera chatting about fitness.
Alluded to Slobby being replaced during today’s game and in midfield against Atletico.
Isak is where he would be after 2 weeks of preseason but is hampered by us having just tactical and recovery sessions. Might get 45 on Wednesday but as the Wissa injury shows, we have to be careful.

And how many minutes did Szobo play?
I saw the Hungary - Portugal game, he looked dead after the final whistle.
Here's an idea, play Gomez.
What about that?
we’ve got a sweet bench though… if you’re a tired fullback. 30 minutes each
Szobo is a fitness freak, and as Slot says will see reduced minutes today. He also has no injury issues.
Given that Gomez still can’t train/play in successive days, I’m not surprised he isn’t starting yet.
Poor the Chiesa
He had no injury issues either until Klopp destroyed him in his last season.
