7 points from our next 3 league games would be excellent. I think our nearest challenger also play liverpool very soon?

By the way pal you owe me one. Watched the game last night til the scum went two up, stopped watching by way of depression, saw on my phone that you’d equalised, so started watching again, at which the scum immediately scored, I stayed with it until 92nd minute and gave up and stopped watching. Without me you equalised. Similar situation to when you drew 4 all there under Gollum, we went in to win the league that season due to your draw. I also think Tim Howard made a wonder save from Turdinhand (after I switched back on and nearly jinxed it!)

that was almost a mirror of what i did, switched off at 2-0, got a text telling me 2-1 then another 2-2, resisted temtation to put it back on until 88th min, saw the score and turned it off until i got about 5 text messages in 5 seconds, i knew then it was good news

I suppose there are 8 players I very much expect to be picked:

Ederson, Cancelo, Dias, Stones, Rodri, Gundogan, Bernardo, Sterling.

Maybe Fernandinho instead of one of the midfielders (with Bernardo possibly moving into the front 3), but I doubt it.

There are 3 possibilities for the other fullback slot being Walker, Laporte, and Zinchenko. I have no idea which he'll pick. Walker might be seen as the safest bet.

Up front I strongly expect Foden, but I didn't include him earlier just because Pep is very unpredictable with some players. I expect Jesus too, but Pep might mix it up with a false 9. I wouldn't be shocked to see Mahrez start, although I doubt it. Who knows, maybe it's Torres.


If I had to guess:

Ederson

Walker
Stones
Dias
Cancelo

Rodri
Gundogan
Bernardo

Sterling
Jesus
Foden

If I crept downstairs in the middle of the night to grab a cheeky water biscuit and she was in my kitchen, things would get messy.

Not if you use a plate.

Can't wait for the team sheets to come out.
iv changed my starting 11 so many times in my head but always end up with the same conundrum, Sterling or Mahrez.
I think it boils down to which one of these two do Liverpool have most/if any fear of by them just being on the pitch.
Both can be very good passengers in our team, but which one would liverpool have the most concern over?
