Kovač changed 4 at half time. I changed 1.
James Tarkowski came on for Ibrahima Konaté at the break, because I told him he would get 45 minutes and I was not going to be the manager who says that and then does not do it in a friendly.
Konaté came off and sat down and did not sulk, and Tarkowski went out next to Aaron Wan-Bissaka and started talking before he had crossed the halfway line.
He put Kingsley Coman on for Ribéry and Juan Bernat on for Rafinha and 2 Campus lads on in midfield, and the tournament had agreed a friendly variation before a ball was kicked in it.
Unlimited substitutions. Both benches. As many as you like, as often as you like.

"Aye. And you have got 17 on a bench and a Community Shield in 7 days."
"Yes."
"So neither of you is going to admit you want to win this."
Prrrrp.
"No," I said.
51 minutes.
