Liverpool (A) - Sun 3 Oct 16:30 | Pre-Match Thread

No it's not worth the risk. He's in woeful form.

I would be very tempted. They'll likely play Milner or Gomez there, and his pace would leave them for dead. Sterling's game has suffered because he's been brought inside but if you play him on the left he'd be a lot more threatening.

Don’t matter if klopp changes his braces or toothpaste or tactics its the same old hoof ball but their playmaker is out .
Also Rodman will eat all those hoofs like a fly on lizard’s tongue.
come on city Smash’em

A lot of people are also not factoring that while Liverpool will lose Mane, Keita and Salah for Afcon, they are also likely to have to quarantine for ten days when they return.

There is also the likelihood Egypt want their squad joining up two weeks before the tournament.

Liverpool could be without three of their main players for up to six weeks.

I reckon they won’t go something will happen why they won’t go especially if they have a chance of the league.

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

I'd play Walker, Stones, Dias, Laporte, Cancelo across the back

Klopp will ban his players from participating in AFCON, using Covid as his excuse. Wait and see.

Breaking: Pep Guardiola has confirmed everyone is fit for #ManCity except for Oleksandr Zinchenko and Ilkay Gundogan - both players are expected to return after the international break.

Presumably neither player will feature in the internationals.

3 at the back.

Walker and Jesus as wingbacks.

Kind of batshit idea I'd expect from Pep to be honest for this match.

I don't see sterling beating milner for pace the way he is playing, even at milners advanced years.

Wish pep would stop rimming the history clubs
