Liverpool (H) - Carabao Cup 4th Round - Thu 22nd Dec, 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

Can't remember Guardiola picking all his top players at the same time for a League Cup game and don't see him doing it for the upcoming Liverpool match. It will be mostly second choice players with first choice players on the bench as back up. Scouser's will do the same.

Unique circumstances though.
First game back with the need to get players back up to speed, six days until our next fixture, I think both will go close to full strength

Our players at the World Cup have been fairly anonymous.

Lack of form, past their best or just buggered from the intensity of the last few seasons?

Not expecting great things from them when they return.

Let's be honest which Prem players have really shined?

They are the last team we should want to meet in Final

I'd rather play literally any body else other than these lot in the final.

Rashford has been likened to Mbappe apparently .....................by Ten Haag

More hype on the back of two goals ( 1 a big deflection ) scored, but just like bears shit in the woods etc etc

Mbappe will be so fucking angry at that comparison .

Correction - would be fucking awful if we lose to the cult club , but a game to savour if we win ?

Why
Does Mbappe do a soup round also?

Add the problems with their fan behaviour, attacks of our players, their ticketless fans and congested flight routes, I can’t see why anyone would want them in the final

As usual you contradict yourself in your own post

They were the best of a bad lot

2 goals scored against a Wales side with a dodgy keeper who would get relegated from the Championship.

Rashford’s bang average but I’m happy for the media to fawn over him on the basis that if their deluded fans think they’ve actually got a top class striker there’ll be less of a clamour for them to buy somebody better. Danny Welbeck for example.

Walker was brilliant v Mbappe. Stones carried slabhead. Rodri was good as was Alvarez.
