Genk (A) - European Cup Gp E - Weds 23 8pm

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

Let's batter these 1-0

 

I'd change a few things - look at Trent & Robbo for potential rest time, get Keita starting, have one of Brewster or Elliott on the bench.

 

Likely no Mo

Likely no Mo

Is right.

 

Alisson

Gomez Matip Lovren Milner

AOC Lallana Keita

Origi

 

Plus two others, obvs.

had we not lost to Napoli, he might make several changes, but too risky away from home when a win is a must. Keita and Milner may come in but that might it.

[Swipe]

Yeah we need to win this. It’s not a league cup game.

[Cam]

I get that, I really do. But if that nine can't be part of an XI that can beat Genk then they really shouldn't be here.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

not saying wholesale changes & bringing in the kids. Use the squad intelligently.

 

I can't see Mo traveling so it'll be Divock, Bobby & Mane most likely

[Gunga Din]

get them beat. then beat them in the return and its just about job done. 

[growler]

It’s away - will be strong line up I think. Keita should be good for a start. Milner too. Brewster should get some time in I would think.

[Sion]

Brewster playing based on what? He can't even make the bench.

 

There will be no more than 2 or 3 changes. We need to win.

[New York Red]

Any form on these? I can’t recall them being in the Champions League before.

[Maldini]

Any form on these? I can’t recall them being in the Champions League before.

 

They drew with Napoli

[épieur]

Make sure Gomez, AOC, Lallana, Milner and Keita get starts. Work out the rest from there.

[Conrad]

 Brewster should get some time in I would think.

why do you think that?

If we don’t win this then qualification is uncertain. Even if we do Genk at home, drop points here we have two really difficult games.

[Earl Hafler]

had we not lost to Napoli, he might make several changes, but too risky away from home when a win is a must. Keita and Milner may come in but that might it.

However, it's the ideal game to improve form of some squad players.

it's competitive, we need points..

 

I'd start Keita, Lallana, Ox and Origi. Rest Bobby, drop Hendo

[McBain]

4231

 

Same back five. Wijnaldum and Keita. Ox, Bobby, Sadio, Div (else Salah)

[Begbie]

I'd rest one of the full backs, probably Robbo for Milner.

 

Otherwise Gomez for Matip and play Keita and Ox for Gini and Hendo

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

They drew with Napoli

 

and lost 6-2 to RBS

 

So who really knows? On paper it's not a strong league

[McBain]

They drew with Santander and beat Halifax though

[Conrad]

ha ha very good McBain

[honourablegeorge]

I get that, I really do. But if that nine can't be part of an XI that can beat Genk then they really shouldn't be here.

 

A few of them shouldn't be. 

They drew with Napoli

 

Yeah - not to be treated like mugs. We blew our opportunity to rest players for CL games with that Napoli performance. And can't rely on beating Red Bull easily either. 

[Hassony]

Is right.

 

Alisson

Gomez Matip Lovren Milner

AOC Lallana Keita

Origi

 

Plus two others, obvs.

Mad, we lost to red star last season with a better team

[Ombudsam]

They drew with Napoli

So we’ll lose 2-0 then.

[Ombudsam]

and lost 6-2 to RBS

 

So who really knows? On paper it's not a strong league

Ahh so we’ll beat them 10-5

[Bootle Buck]

Time to start trusting in the likes of Ox, Naby, Lallana and Milner to start more games and give the likes of Gini, Hendo and Fab a break.
