Needs to trust the youngsters more because Elneny and Jenkinson are bottom tier players.
Could give 1 player who should have been given a look-in ages ago for the Jenks problem: Jordi Osei-Tutu. Has the athleticism and strength to withstand the PL already.Needs to trust the youngsters more because Elneny and Jenkinson are bottom tier players.
It was always a gamble to rotate but it had to be done with 4 games in 11 days. If there was one game where you might be able to get away with a weakened team, it was today rather than Wolves/Leicester away or Valencia. Crap performance but without a Mustafi howler and a horrible penalty decision on Wan-Bissaka he might've got away with it.I think he did the sensible thing rotating, it was just a bit too much at the same time.

I didn't check but it would be interesting to see how much did Klopp rotate Liverpool's attack. I have a feeling they play every game, and if that's the case, why do we need to rotate every game? Torreira didn't play a lot, AMN played less than 20 games, Iwobi was on the bench for the last couple of weeks...It was always a gamble to rotate but it had to be done with 4 games in 11 days.

Emery doesn't actually have any arguments in his favour for constant rotation, players don't look fresh or better, we didn't avoid injuries and we don't have quality to change every game and expect results.
Instead of the usual crap that fans are being served, it would be nice to see for a change that he takes the blame and fixes his mistakes.
Summer window is near and we have a manager here who didn't really impress with anything, especially player management and team selection.
If I'm Kronke I definitely wouldn't invest a lot in someone like Emery.
Even if he wins EL I wouldn't feel confident with him next season, he just likes to frustrate everybody with his team selection, and too often it doesn't pay out.
Came to post the same thing. Doesn't send a good message to the youngsters about their chances of playing for the first team. Not sure a Willock-Guendouzi midfield would have done well though (not to mention we don't have many options at right back anyways among the youngsters). I actually think our biggest issue was not starting with two at the back, then we would have had another forward player on to put more pressure on them defensively. We gave them too much belief with our **** show in the first half.Needs to trust the youngsters more because Elneny and Jenkinson are bottom tier players.

I think he played a lot of games lately if he injured mean our RB is more f**ked than already isAlso why rotate AMN? He is young and should be playing. Red Zone? Injury?
