The fact we'll have a stronger team and bench here for a dead game than for a quarter final next month doesn't make much sense.Glad Morton's got a start. Hopefully get Nat on at half time. Shame there's not a few more youngsters on the bench.
Crosby Nick never fails.
Nat should have got these last two games. We wouldn't even be in the competition without his contribution last season.
So bloody what? If you watch football to be absolutely miserable then go watch cricket.
Maybe I'm reading too much into this but the front three seems to be about Minamino getting comfort and rhythm playing with our first-choice forwards. With Firmino out injured, I suspect Minamino will be coming off the bench to replace one of the front three and occasionally starting (like tonight) so we need to give him the rhythm through minutes.I like the line-up. I suspect we might see a fair few changes between 45-60 minutes regardless of scoreline.
Starting Thaigo in this is nutsGood luck everyone - im off to sacrifice a small mammal to the god of soft tissue health
As I've said before, the Full English is just the base upon which the Scots/Welsh/NI have improved upon. Sorry but the Full English is the worst of the British breakfasts.
Give me the date you don't complain and I'm throwing the biggest party this godforsaken land has ever seen.
No injuries and a result would be great. Let's try and finish the group unbeaten alive.
Don't think we needed to play both Mane and Salah from the start, but obviously, we don't have many options upfront right now.
Imagine being a Porto fan thinking that you might finally have an easyish night against us with a weakened side then seeing that it still has Alisson, Matip, Thiago, Salah and Mane in it. Must be like fucking Groundhog Day.
Really don’t see the point in starting Salah and Mane. Thiago can do with more minutes at this point, but for those two it only takes one Pickford-esque moment and we lose an irreplaceable player. Why risk it?
In such a sumptuous festival of shite, I wouldn't be so quick to pick a winner..But he'd make the shortlist
