AFC Bournemouth v Liverpool - Sat 8 December 1230

[Gethin]

Should be another tough game

 

Bournemouth have lost 4 of their last 5, but 3 of them were Man City, Man Utd and Arsenal.  

 

Team selection should be interesting with Napoli and Man United up after this one - expect us to be pretty much full strength for this though. 

 

Live on Sky 

 

 

[Billy Talbot]

I hope Keita starts. 

[Hightown Phil]

They’ve got some midfield issues which is nice.

[McBain]

Lewis Cook out for the season is good for us. Less so for him

[Cobs]

Lovren out with concussion

[The_Adder]

Lovren out with concussion

 

TAA - Matip - Big Virgil - Robertson

 

Could be worse 

[Case]

Matip and VVD so... who else can play there?

 

Lucas?

Can?

[Cobs]

Mane - probably out

Robbo - back fit

[Gethin]

Nathaniel Phillips is the next CB cab out of the rank isn't he? I'd expect to see him or one of the other ressies on the bench tomorrow.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Camacho made the bench against Burnley

[Gethin]

Camacho made the bench against Burnley

 

That'll be the Camacho that isn't a CB, yeah? 

[D.Boon]

Lovren out with concussion

Physioroom has him out with twisted nasal hair

[Begbie]

Get Mo and Bobby back up front with Shaq. Defence picks itself....so who plays in midfield?

 

Keita, Fabinho and Gini for me

[Rusty Shackleford]

I don’t see a lineup without Henderson or Milner yet.

[McBain]

We've not done 433 with Shaqiri in the front three yet. Don't see us doing it tomorrow

 

I'd save Wijnaldum and Milner for Napoli and go Fab, Jordan and Naby behind the usual front three

 

If Mane's out go 4231 with the same lads but put Keita at ten and Shaqiri right

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Robbo back in contention. Mane out alongside Gomez, AOC & BIG DOM SOLANKE

having rested Gini midweek, be very surprised if he didnt start

[Case]

Gini should start for sure.  I think it'll be him, Hendo, Naby

[DanM]

We still don't have a straight swap for Mane in that left of the front three position, wonder if he might try keita there.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Gini should start for sure.  I think it'll be him, Hendo, Naby

 

Back 5 is pretty much obvious

 

You'd expect Mo & Bobby, probably Shaq & almost certainly Keita

 

So Hendo/Gini/Milner for the remaining 2 spots?

 

Bench - Mignolet, Moreno, Lallana, Origi, Studg, one of those who misses out in MF & Fab? 

 

Only gives us 1 defence option though unless Fab can slot in if needed

[Swipe]

Mane has travelled.

[Smith]

Mane has travelled.

Hard as nails he is. On par with Luis.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

'kin love Mane

[New York Red]

Yeah. Warrior.

[Bailo]

Clynee to make the bench?

 

Fancy Lallana to start this one too, just got a feeling in my water.
