CORY

No VVD.

Looking at the subs bench, don’t see many options other than Jota and possibly Grav in a game of this magnitude.

If we’re well ahead at any time, leave well alone and save them for midweek !

There’s enough in that line up to go and win this if we go for it with high tempo and hard press.

No VVD.

Is he rested or you think injured maybe.
Strange he’s not on the bench if he’s just rested.

No clue. Can't see any info on the official site. Must be rested.

Strange Virgil isn't even in the bench.

Strong line up that.

Can't be injured. Klopp said everyone was fit in his presser on Friday bar the ones we know about. Must be rested.

Konate won't be able to play against Fulham so I expect Virg back for that one.

Club have said VVD is ill.

Big virg is ill. Owen beck is suspended for 2 yellow cards in the Scottish league cup.

Surprised Jota isn't starting to be honest. Made the difference at Burnley and helped turn the game against Newcastle. Gotta good record against Arsenal too.

Team as good as it can be right now. Bench very light.

No VVD in the squad which is bit of a surprise.
Not much to change the game from the bench apart from Jota,  Gravenberch has been mixed lately.
Few changes in the Arse team though too.
They've had a dip in form and we're on an upswing, so going for us to pinch it

Too right. Only Kelly,Jota and Graver are senior pro's by the look of it, so pretty skinny bench.

Who is our pen taker?

Quite surprised at the strengths of both sides. 

Can't get my head round the fact that Anfield has a bigger capacity the the Emirates.

Who is our pen taker?

Might be Trent. Elliott might be wide with Cody just off the front 3 maybe.

Amazing and I never did find that threepenny joey I lost in the boys Pen in 1963..

BBC saying Jomez is nearly back to his best and he has stepped up lately. Can play all along the back 4 so a very valuable player. 

Looking for Nunez to have a big game. Pace and aggression. Really like this lad and love his attitude.

VVD a big loss, he’s been back to his near best lately. Big chance for Elliott and Nunez needs to grab this with both hands, score a couple and his place in FA Cup history is assured!
Come on Redmen, let’s do this!

Not sure how I feel about this one. On one hand I want to beat these cu*ts so badly but on the other I’m deffo no where near as anxious as I am for a league game.

Would love a win
