UNDISPUTED NO 1,
Craig Gordon must start. Playing Barcelona can be the ideal showcase for a goalkeeper- ask Fraser Forster, or a slow unwinding nightmare- again ask Fraser Forster!
The Southampton No. 1 played four times against Barca with the first two matches much more memorable than the final one- a 6-1 defeat which could have been much much worse.
Leo Fasan could do with some match time but not against Barcelona. Gordon was hot and cold against Astana, 90 pressurised minutes against the Barca front line will get his eye in for the return match with the Kazak’s.
