Paris Saint-Germain (A) - CL - Tue 28 Sep 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

Not arsed really, it’s a free hit. Bound to rotate heavily as scousers next week is a more important fixture than this one. All the bench guys will get a game and he will see who recovers well after today’s exertions.

Also this game won’t be played at anything like the intensity as next Sunday imho & so won’t need same fitness levels as our two PL games.

I'd go for a draw and rotate some players for the Liverpool game

Ederson
Walker
Dias
Ake
Cancelo
Ferna
Foden
Mahrez
Ferran
Sterling
Grealish

Finishing 1st or 2nd in the group really doesn't matter and PSG drawing with Brugge gave us an advantage anyway.

This match doesn't matter. Rest everyone for Anfield.

It's a free hit, beat Leipzig and Brugge and the games v PSG barely matter (outside of a tougher last 16 draw). Last 16 draw will still be easier than PSG (unless it's Bayern).

Obviously go to win it but Liverpool is more important.

Carabao Cup team! ;-)

Here’s hoping the lads get a nice warm down, some first class massage and recovery nutrition tonight and tomorrow, and a nice relaxing (short) travel day on Monday, with a walkthrough of the PSG tactics.

Light session on Tuesday morning to stretch the legs and figure out the niggles, good lunch, afternoon nap, do the business (bring home at least 1 point) and rest up for the Dippers.

F*ck it! Same team. Or give Mahrez and Sterling a go. But keep the back 4 as it is.

Getting into our groove , we are a proper football team , PSG are a group of individuals , we will hammer them on Tuesday.

F*ck it! Same team. Or give Mahrez and Sterling a go. But keep the back 4 as it is.

So you expect our back four to play thrice in nine days? The Liverpool game is the big one. We need to rotate as we have such a strong squad.

 

[MarsLlama]

I want to see pretty much the same team against Liverpool as we started today. With that in mind, happy to rest a few players in midweek and just see what happens.

Ederson
Walker
Stones
Laporte
Cancelo (Zinchenko if fit)
Rodri
Gundogan
De Bruyne
Mahrez
Torres
Foden

Pep will go as strong as ever here, no way he'll want to toss this one away with a weakened side. Ederson, Walker, Cancelo, Dias, Stones, Fernandinho, Mahrez, De Bruyne, Foden, Sterling, Torres
