      I'm not confident it'll happen, but I'll laugh my cock off if we do get a result. Just reading all the squirming on here afterwards alone will make it a classic. In many cases, the self same people who are slagging Brendan off for his selection are the self same people who've been clamouring for change.

      Anyway, I think we'll do better than most are expecting. I think we'll still be in the game with ten minutes to go, from there who knows?

      I think to be fair there's "making a change" and then there's wrapping your best players up in cotton wool for the weekend. This looks to me like the latter. Fair play to Brendan he's got balls either way.

      Going for 5-1 to Real. Our 1 goal being thanks to the absence of Mario Balotelli. Hopefully I'm terribly wrong :D

      Defensive but attacking too.  Plenty of energy, pressing and tracking back from the front lads to keep their defence on their toes and 3 solid defensive mids behind to interupt their play.  I might like this, I can see the reasoning behind it, would be great if it works.

      True.
      One of the main problems we had at Anfield was that Gerrard couldn't press for more than 20 mins, and when he stopped, it seemed the rest of the team took a step back as well, which allowed them onto the front foot.
      I think it's a very bold selection.

      brendan takes a huge gamble, if we get thrashed tonight, lallana, markovic & co. confidence will never recover in this season, making our revival almost impossible

      For me, it's not a question of playing well. The problem here is that Brendan doesn't have ambition and have no faith on his players or his tactics. This a statement that we are so far behind Real that our own manager doesn't think we have a chance to win.

      F**k it. Why not? I like the team selection, should be interesting to watch, maybe it'll give a kick up the arse to some of our first team lads. Shows that if they don't perform they don't get to play these big games.

      Everyone has been acting like we are starting the game 5-0 down anyway, nothing to lose here. Just hope the other game in our group ends in a draw.

      the man has just thrown off the towel, madrid starts with their best formation possible, because bale and carvajal are slighty injured, and we start with markovic and toure, F**k off

      Just forfeit the game, if he didn't want to go out and play.

      We were awy from UCL for 5 season and, when we come back, the manager gives up.

      are we being respectful to a competiton we have won 5 times against a 10 times winner.
      Not sure what is going on to be honest I am shocked by that line up but we start the game at 0=0.

      For all those who seem to have forgotten the words, and the meaning of those words.
      It's easy to support when we're winning.

      Have you seen the perfomance of our strongest team against New castle and Hull?,I was thinking like you only, but after remembering those matches,Only Sterling needed a rest . Rest were all due to form than giving up.
