Hull (a) Pre Match Thread

Can't understand people wanting to rest some here
We can put our best 11 out at Anfield and still lose
Let's get these 3 points done v Hull

agreed! no point in beating arsenal if we then draw/lose to hull!

Same, the players have a week to rest therefore we should play our strongest team

What Pep considers to be his strongest team will not necessarily be the same for Hull & Liverpool. But if he plays more or less the same teams for those games then he would almost certainly make several changes for the Burnley game. That could be the banana skin fixture.

If we play our best team against Burnley it's unlikely we'll lose considering they're dreadful away from home. We have the FA Cup a few days later, that's the game for rotation.

Full strength. Its a BPL game, can't underestimate anything. Must win this and Burnley.

 

[Ric]

Agreed, we should pick a full strength team for this.

Bravo
Sagna
Stones
Otamendi
Kolarov
Fernandinho
Toure
Silva
De Bruyne
Sterling
Sane

Harsh on Fernando after an excellent performance against Arsenal, but Fernandinho has to play and Toure offers more going forward.

 

[MarsLlama]

I would play Fernando next to Fernandinho, Touré will be fully fit for the massive Liverpool game then.

I'll take any win here: Liverpool is where we'll need a massive performance. All we need here is to try for a clean sheet. I'm going 1-4 though.

 

[prof-taf]

Full strength every game for me, rotate thise who look tired only. Let's try and get a solid run together and get a little bit closer to the rent boys. See how long the 1 nils can last.

 

[Adlab123]

We should play our strongest team and rotate for the FA cup.

Need to play our strongest 11, 3 points at Hull is a must if we're to stay in the top 3 after the new year. We can't afford to drop many more points if we want to stay in the title hunt after the new year.
