[Withnail]

Prob be something like this

Ortega
Walker
Akanji
Dias
Laporte
Rodri
Bernado
Lewis
Alvarez
Mahrez
Foden

Not sure Rodri will play, think Phillips will start.

 

[TonyM]

I'd start ...
.................Ortega................
Walker Akanji Dias Laporte
...........Stones Phillips.........
Mahrez ...Alvarez .....Foden
.................Haaland..............

2nd half I'd replace Haaland and by the end of the game have it as close as possible to...
.................Ortega................
Walker Akanji Dias Laporte
.............Lewis Phillips.........
Mahrez ... Perrone ...Gomes
..................Palmer ...............

 

[super_city_si]

Pep will go with

---------------Ortega
Walker---Stones---Laporte…Lewis
--------------Phillips
--------KDB---Gundogan
Mahrez--------Alvarez--------Foden

Dont mind that but think haaland will play and alvarez will take kevs spot.

Phillips has to play over Rodri.

Can see quite a patched up team with Arsenal on the horizon.

Surely you have to play Phillips in this game. Rodri needs a rest and Phillips is an England international for goodness sake.

 

[DallasMCBlue]

ortega
Walker
Akanji
Laporte
Gomez
Phillips
Gundogan
Palmer
Foden
Mahrez
Alvarez

If Foden is healthy I think that’s your team.

Bloody hell folks, we've just beaten Bayern fairly comfortably over two legs, we will beat these lot in which ever way we wish

No doubt we will make 3 or 4 changes, and the game will be over by half time

That's not being arrogant, it's because we are a phenomenal side who are flying, whilst Sheff United are missing two of their best players, and are up against the best team in Europe

3 or 4 nil and we will win at a canter

I wouldn’t be so sure. That second half against Leicester was a reality check. If we make wholesale changes which we should considering Arsenal on wed then I expect a tight enough game.

 

[Victorinodennistua]

If we don’t play a keeper I will be very cross

If we don’t it’ll be 10-1 to us.

 

[fuskarn]

are mcatee and doyle allowed to play on saturday?

 

[I'm not really here]

are mcatee and doyle allowed to play on saturday?

Nope

 

[US47Blue]

Could see something similar to the lineup that nailed Chelsea 4-0.

Walker - Akanji - Laporte - Gomez
Silva - Rodri - Foden
Mahrez - Alvarez - Palmer
