This is our toughest game of the season so far. All eyes might be on Chelsea, we’re tired, Liverpool put the pressure on with a great win for them, and Watford are either brilliant or shit. If we win this, I’ve no doubt we’ll win the league because I see this as our biggest mentality test so far.

This sort of thing is said before every game we play!! Fact is, every game is our biggest test in order to win the league. The days when our “big game” was the derby are gone. We are a one of the best clubs in the world & to win titles, we need to respect every team we play. As for being tired - how ridiculous. Every team is going to be stretched at this time of the year - our squad size should make the difference (hopefully ). However, wouldn’t mind taking scousers luck off them.

don't think were tired squad rotation has put that to bed,Watford are a mid table side who can over or under perform but i expect 3 points in this one
 
This is not the time to rest Fern. He didn't play during the international break and will likely be rested against Hoffenheim and Leicester in the cup, meaning a game a week after this leading up to the Xmas fixtures.
 
Watford need to be respected, they're capable of beating anybody on a good day but they're a fairly open team that doesn't tend to rely on sticking 10 men behind the ball and playing for 1/2 chances a game which should benefit us. As long as we concentrate and don't get sloppy we should come back with 3 points and its vital we do, can't drop points before a crucial game at Chelsea this weekend. If we manage 6 points in those two games I think we can open up a gap over Christmas as Liverpools tails will drop the minute they lose ground to us, if we relinquish the lead or lose ground, it will rejuvenate them and we get more of their insufferable bullshit.

Ederson
Danilo
Stones
Laporte
Delph
fernandinho
Silva
Foden
Mahrez
Sane
Jesus

Danilo deserves to keep his place and I think we need Walker fresh to deal with Hazard weekend, rest of the defence picks itself with Kompany and Otamendi getting games in the champs league and league cup, midfield I think he either brings in Foden or he chooses to rest fernandinho bringing in gundogan and the two silva's, he won't play without 2 from fernandinho, silva and Bernardo as we lose too much control. Upfront Mahrez to come in for Sterling purely on rotation and Jesus to get another game to give Aguero extra time to be 100% 5 changes from Bournemouth but a very strong side and should leave us with a fresh squad for Chelsea.
 
Gabby hasn't scored since 19th august,he needs to step up tomorrow,we have enough time to recover so dave should play,we are much better with him,sub him off asap
