Well, I am a big fan, so I have no problem with that.

if you're happy with him starting yet again in midfield then that makes no sense whatsoever

Wouldn't have Alvarez starting tonight but if he does then I expect Bernardo isn't quite fit enough to start

I’m expecting it to be a very similar team to when we played them few back weeks back. Foden off the left but operating centrally with Bernardo rw

He started against Brentford a few weeks back and we played very well. It’s makes perfect sense.

Can't speak for anywhere else but it's on Canal + in France. I'll be going out to watch it and have a jar or two tomorrow evening.

Where are you , we near La Rosiere. 10 euro a pint. Costing us 160 a session

If Brentford defend as poorly as they did agaisnt the Dippers then we will score a hatful , but they are playing the best team in the world and will no doubt raise their game ,because they were only playing Liverpool last weekend , jus another game against title pretenders :)

If it makes sense to Pep I'm happy with that, because there's a 99% chance he's right.

 

[oldius]

My team would be
Ederson
Walker Stones Dias Ake
Rodri Bernardo
Bobb KDB Phil
Erling

Three interchanging behind Erling.

Yeah right enough, Pep knows best.

Just dont think he has much impact there, bernardo or phil much more suited to that central role.

Well there are lots of things that I think and we all have our own opinions but at the end of the day I know to kkep in mind I'm wrong and he's right. So I know while it might not make sense to me It probably will make sense.

Pep knows how to win titles and resting and rotating key players at the right time is essential at this stage….hopefully Bernie gets a well deserved rest

edit: Silva hates scousers…..as long as he’s fully fit for that game, all good.
