I've thought this thru. And if Pep does, he'll do the same :p
..,...............Eder Ederson...................
Walker.......Stones...... Laporte.... Zinchencko
...........................Dihno.................

Sterling,..................................Sane

No complications or overthinking needed. Just play the best players. :)

Ha, I guess there’s little point in having the poll if bravado is the only criteria in voting. We could just preset it as 100% win, in case anyone voting otherwise was accused of cowardice!

Especially considering our fantastic Anfield record

Eder is a bit old these days, and whilst playing two keepers might be prudent, I'm not sure it's legal.

Surprised so many are suggesting Stones in midfield. I didn't think it worked very well against Oxford, trying it against Liverpool is suicide.

For me, a lot depends on how he receives the ball. If he's facing our goal most of the time and forced into squaring it to the full backs whenever he receives it, he'll be pressed like never before and could be forced into mistakes but at least he'd have Dinho alongside him in most of the suggested line ups, which would help. If he can sort his feet out and manage to receive the ball facing forwards like the Hoffenheim game, we could be on to something. Whatever we do, Dinho needs help.

No chance... we've never beat a top team away 6-0.... I'll go 6-1.... think we might have done that before

Let see how Atkinson reacts when the Mercenary sythes down Merlin or Leroy in the first & minutes. That'll be the tell of how the match will go.
