      Yep,  sometimes i do tend to talk out of my arse, yours is a much more sensible option ,  i don't even think Rhian is registered as a  CL squad player anyway,  plz forgive my inane drivel,  it's that time year you know when my two brain cells re-align themselves 😜

      VVD playing as striker?

      Don't forget:
      Quote
      At the beginning of his time in the first team we actually used him as a striker, first and foremost, especially at the end of games when we were looking for a goal,” Tim Sparv, who was with Van Dijk at Groningen, says.

      Will the starting line be different against Barcelona tomorrow if LC get a point or three against City today? Asking for a friend!

      I don't know why it would, we have plenty of time for players to recover before the next game.

      Does anyone know if Lallana is healthy? I know he was out a few weeks back, but I actually think he and Ox pairing with Hendo or Milner in the middle and then Shaq, Sturridge and Mane up top could give us a different dynamic and they are all capable of producing.

      It looks bleak I know, but maybe we turn our disadvantage into an advantage? I'm sure Barca have been preparing for the last couple of weeks to play a team with Mo and Bobby and with us playing a certain way. We are likely to have a vastly different lineup and possibly formation..may be able to mix them up a bit. Anyway, I've got for 6-0 to us in the prediction league.

      If City drop points today we'll not even bother with CL. We don't have the team for both anymore.

      What on earth are you talking about, who exactly would you rest against Barcelona and why?? We have 4 days off between Barca and Wolves, our final game of the season. If by some miracle we get past Barca we then have 2 weeks until the CL final by which time all our players should be full of energy.

      Klopp confirms mo and Bobby out tomorrow, but adds Mo will be available vs. Wolves (which subtly infers that Bobby will not be).

      Salah and Firmino are out, that's a fact. Virgil didn't attend training, if I had to make the difficult choice to not use key players to make sure to have a team capable of defeating Wolves, I'd do that. However if City don't drop points today winning the league will be unlikely, so I'd go all out against Barcelona. Believe it or not we don't have a large squad, the only reason we managed with what we have is because we dropped out cups early. If you are asking who I would rest, Van Dijk if he's not 100%. Wolves are no walkovers.

      Already had a mountain to climb, in this return leg against Barcelona. Seemingly the mountain appears to get larger and larger.

      Noticed how he said can and not will. Can be available doesn't sound 100%. If City drop any points we must play our best XI against wolves, even if that means resting Van Dijk against Barca.

      Well well well. This is a right royal kick in the balls. In all fairness to Firmino and Salah, they are usually bulletproof but this once again goes to highlight how much we need to strengthen our Squad.

      Natural like for like replacements are Sturridge and Origi, nowhere near good enough at the elite level of competition.

      I don't have a clue who Klopp will deploy but i'd go with this team.

      Alisson in goal, van Dijk & Joe Gomez as centre backs, Alexander Arnold & Robertson as full backs, Fabinho, Wijnaldum and Henderson in the middle, with Henderson as the link man.

      As far as the front three goes i'd go with Shaqiri on the right, Oxlade Chamberlain on the left and Mane down the middle.

      That's about as dangerous a team as i can think of with what we have left.

      Have no doubt i'll be completely wrong though.  :D :D :D

                  Sturridge
      Shaqiri                  Mane

      Best 3 available, but if anything happened to Mane we might not be able to beat Wolves.

      Not sure about being fit to go from the start. He is coming off a major knee injury and was out for a year. I think he is only a sub option for this season.

      I think the already slim chances of success have hit the skids totally now. That being said I hope Anfield is in celebratory mood tomorrow whatever the result today and tomorrow. The lads deserve recognition for their season.

      I just hope we give them a game now as a one off game forgetting the 3-0 deficit.

      Because Klopp picks the team, not a club spokesperson.

      The tweet is coming from a 3rd party.
