Looking at both teams and OliVAR this match won't be a 0-0.

Could be 5-4.

So liverpool are starting with no CBs, hendo and fabinho at the back. interesting

You have a guy like Zinchenko who can’t defend for his fucking life. You have a Sterling who’s had an awful form for the past 4-5 month, unable to finish pretty much everything coming his way. And then he puts Mahrez in there who is as predictable as a sunrise and pretty much never fights for the ball and run.

This line-up will probably cost us. Unbelievable. Pep never learns.

Dont mind me but I think Pep knows bit more than about his players than you think

Assuming walker is injured seeing as he's not on the bench. Would have gone with laporte and I think jesus harassing their makeshift defence was the way to go, he would force them into mistakes. Whilst we've looked strong at the back, that defence is a bit too adventurous and lacking in pace for my liking. Not as confident as I was before the lineups now. Big big games needed from the entire back 4 and sterling and mahrez

Why don't you fuck off and support another team to then

Zinchenko worries me against pace.

thank you

Would have gone Laporte over Zinch but otherwise all good.

A few pre match nerves on this thread.

fucking ell If we were in a boozer there would be fights !!

it’s a good line up.

3 nil city . zinchenko hat trick

 

[yankblue]

Happy with that lineup, but my nerves are starting to hit

Fabinho is a very good centre back but Henderson not so much, good that he's not in their midfield. Laporte at left back might have been an interesting option here, 3 centre backs attacking set pieces vs a team with none.
