[Rammy Blue]

Team out any second now

[kaz7]

 

[Onlymcfc]

Sterling benched

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

Ilkay, not Bern or Raz, De Bruyne off the right...Laporte at left-back, odd...

 

[Ric]

Gundogan starts, bit of a surprise.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Not Gundo?

He melted last time.

 

[Clercqs]

Hmm, Silva up front?

 

[kippaxwarrior]

Agreed, important match and no getting away from that, fuck sake xD

I'm really relaxed about this. My only worry is Salah but then I think about Sane up against Arnold and our midfield trio against theirs and I feel a lot better

[HolisticJim]

What times kick off?

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Gundogan starts, bit of a surprise.

Does that mean De Bruyne and Silva can also hang out wide?

 

[Delphacito]

De Bruyne on the wing? Not a fan of that.

 

[abu13]

Well that is a surprise, I wasn't expecting Gundo and Ferny both to start.

Nearly time to set sail to the pub, third trip to the bog of the afternoon first. Another here who is rarely nervous but been in and out of the shithouse all day. I need a pint.

Fasten those seat belts tight I think this week is going to be a bit of a wild ride, And when its finished I will have an arse like a blood orange judging by today.

 

[kaz7]

gundy and dinho on a card from suspension,why play them both pep

 

[Delphacito]

Pep's clearly trying to overload the middle here and avoid getting pressed by the Liverpool midfield.

 

[MCFC1993]

Interesting, 4 in the midfield will mean we outnumber them.

Always knew the shape was going to change with Sterling benched but expected 3 at the back.

Gundogan loves this competition though which may be the thinking behind it.

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Seriously?

That defence and midfield should be punished.
