Anyone else a little disappointed?

Perhaps Sarri knows something we don't ?

Surely he saw him pre-season to!!

I'm still more than pleased with what Sarri's done but I feel he could have included CHO and Ampadu a little more than he has, without prejudicing performance, even if it were just to have them on the bench.

There seems so little incentive for the kids at our club!

It'd surprise me if either feature in our next 2 matches. Which then begs the question...... when?

Liverpool have given Trent Arnold and Gomez opportunities and they are now 1st team regulars. We have players as good or better in those positions out on loan.

I get what you're saying Brummie

But what i'm asking is if these players don't play in matches like last night, when are they gonna get a shot?

Massively disappointed yesterdays match wasn't used to play full second string but not the end of the world, there's still plenty of ideal opportunities over next three months to play them (in EL/LC matches).
Europa is a reserve team competition in group stages.

Hope the trend of playing first-choice in future cup games doesn't continue or first-choice will get burned out quicker (Hazard is already the warning sign of fatigue). More fixture congestion incoming.

I'll pass judgement on Sarri rotation (or lack of) after that period.

And by second string...I don't mean the likes of Cahill, Drinkwater, Moses who are no-use/ill-suited to the set-up. Unnecessary blockers to Ampadu & Hudson-Odoi...

Again with Pedro unavailable Moses gets the nod on the bench in front of Hudson Odoi.

I'm starting to wish they didn't even try the youngsters in pre-season. They look the part and get you excited for seeing them in the coming season only to see them disappear for sight. It's like being given a tasty starter only to have it taken away.

I'm starting to feel like I've more chance of seeing Lord Lucan in a Chelsea shirt than Hudson Odoi.

Why would Sarri play kids though. If he doesn't get top 4 he's gone so he'll do what he can to keep his job. He has no interest in developing a player so they're great in 3 years.

I don't know or really understand it.

If I'd seen pre season what Hudson Odoi could give me over Moses who brings very little, I know what I would do!
