i have a feeling he just dont want to play cesc up thier incase they do an alonso on him, might play arshavin or cesc but might not risk them both because they could get a good kicking and lose both at a time when rosicky and nasri are out would leave us very short on craft in midfield.
the way he is saying we will play the sttrongest possible team!! why would he say that surely that is a given
I'm assuming he will be playing, but if he doesn't it would be a big blow to us, we are definitely much better at maintaining possession when Cesc is playing and that will be important to take the sting out of Celtics big game, raised passion and adrenaline levels, the last thing we need is for them to get up a head of steam.
