Yeah, but I mean even if we dont rest, you notice how interested we are in attacking in 2nd halfs when we already leading? Imagine that attitude for a whole game, thats what we tend to have in last games of seasons when we have nothing to play for. It does not suit a hungry goal getter like Higauin, we already seen it this season in beginning, he was not used to a team that switches off gears after 1 or 2 up. His effort to keep going wasnt matched by the rests approach of killing off time and conserving energy.
But yeah, at that point there is not much to conserve energy for (except a hopeful CL final), so maybe we shouldnt switch off too much. Plus having it a dangerous 2nd gear where you effortessly attack is still good confidence builder and practice to keep the pulse racing for CL final.
