Poch didn't play a full strength side all tournament
That says it all. Prem is the priority

i agree with him that prem should be the priority, but I would have played full strength in the CL too tbh
Poch did the right thing, we were extremely unlikely to win the CL anyway so the PL has to take priority.
The reason we are out of the CL is the bad luck of our draw, Monaco were in pot 4 and meant to be the group whipping boys, but have instead won the group.
If we had drawn a genuine whipping boy like Brugge, we would probably have had 6 points, instead we lost twice to Monaco.
Monaco are a decent team, they are second in the French league, recently beat PSG and are the top scorers in the whole of Europe.
Walker & Vertonghen HAD to play!
