“I replaced Wojciech because he had a bad game,” he said. “I still think he is a great goalkeeper and I want him to have the opportunity to show that. They know the rules. It is based on merit. If you have a disastrous game you don’t play in the next one. Once you have the rule, based on the fact Wojciech had a good game against Manchester United [in the previous round], there is no special reason to drop him. You have to accept that nothing is definite. You don’t have many goalkeepers who play all the games. They need their moments of breather where they can recharge and focus again.”
