Over the weekend yet? Here comes the Champions League...with Liverpool, Man City, Mikel Arteta...
City missed their chances to kill off RB Leipzig when their first-half domination wasn’t reflected in the scoreline. Likewise, Leipzig will rue not making the most of their second-half opportunities to at least take a lead to the Etihad.
But the Champions League does funny things to City. Usually in the later stages, we grant you, Guardiola and his side too often in recent years have found a way to lose and the longer their pursuit of the European Cup goes on, the greater the stigma becomes. In their Europa League last-16 first leg, the Gunners were sloppy and indecisive, which might be expected given the changes Arteta made. Rotation prompted uncertainty and much more chaos than the manager would have liked.
So Casemiro is the one player we know for certain who will start in Betis as United look to complete the job with a minimum of fuss. The midfielder owes the Red Devils one last dominant performance before he disappears off the radar for almost a month, until the Europa League quarter-finals on April 13, assuming nothing catastrophic happens to United in Spain.
Reports suggested he was the engine room staffer most likely to be laid off this summer, and some of his performances haven’t helped his cause. Against West Ham in the FA Cup, Ten Hag tried to rest Casemiro but found himself having to send him on from the bench at half-time with McTominay lost in midfield.
