I don’t think Gio was left much choice was he?
Rest them when and replace with who?
Even on Sunday I wanted half the team rested but looking back he couldn’t justify it had we been done by 2 or 3 because the low morale etc.
The only thing I would love clarified is this, when he was pulling up early in games and red star away comes to mind, should he have been pulled earlier then or did Gio just take it literally minute by minute to get through and then worry about, which isn’t the wrong tactics as we could have taken him off, lost momentum and lost the tie.
The Columbia trip is what sticks in the throat, did he push himself to hard to get in the team which again fair enough but as a professional I would have thought he would have know his body and that whatever went was going to go.
