      Alisson

      Alexander-Arnold
      Gomez
      Van Dijk
      Milner (c)

      Oxlade-Chamberlain
      Fabinho
      Keita

      Mane
      Firmino
      Origi

      Subs:

      Adrian
      Lovren
      Robertson
      Henderson
      Wijnaldum
      Lallana
      Salah

      Should be able to rotate here and still get a convincing win.

      Think we will win this one 3-0.

      Can we get away with Robbo missing this and Trent ,? Salah  a non starter for this and Henderson or Wijnaldum. Would hook Firmino 60/70 mins and Mane this game is not even  close to importance of Sunday and we must gain any advantage we can

      Genk had a couple of chances against us in the first leg, so they're not total mugs. I'd stay as strong as poss until we are 3 up. Then we can rest players. Deffo no Mo, Back four as usual, front three Mane, Bob and Origi. Fab a must holding, with Ox, who deserves a start and possibly Gini or Millie. Not sure Ox and Keita work well together, a bit similar. I know they did when they were both subbed on, but that was against a tiring side. Sure Jürgen will sort it out, he's always welcome to call me if he needs any advice. :couch: We'll have a strong enough bench to rest players around 60-70 mins if were doing o.k.

      I think you almost have it right. I bet Jürgen leaves Trent out as well with Lovren in and Gomez at center back.

      Also, if Salah doesn't start be shouldn't be on the bench either. Brewster can be in the sub role.

      It's not about "relaxing" it's about using our assets in the best way and keeping players like Ox and.Keita sharp. A win here and we are pretty much qualified

      Should put out strongest side possible with the exception of salah who definitely is carrying a knock, win this and presuming Napoli beat Salzburg in Italy all we will need to qualify is a point from our last two and i think Klopp would love to use that last group game away to salzburg as a chance to rotate as its at the beginning of a hectic few weeks of fixtures

      Save game before you start the match. In case you lose, reload the saved game. Save game again only after you win. ;D guaranteed 100% record!

      Has to be a strong line up but may be with one eye on the City game. I don't think the defence will be pushed to hard so they'll be same again.Might give Gomez a game.

      Mid Fab,Milner & Alex. Up front Mane,Bob and Origi. Boss doesn't have that many options up front and media reports say he is looking at Werner, striker at RB Leipzig.

      Just thinking as I type here but definites for this are Alisson, Gomez, Milner, Ox, Keita, Origi. With Milner at LB and Fab sitting out for a good week, I think he will play too.

      Who plays with them will be down to fitness. Salah wont be used I would guess bringing Lallana into the picture too.

      Need to juggle with winning the game and managing the work load of the usual front 3, middle 3 and the 2 full backs.

      On a positive point we will be camped in their half and this should end up being a nice game before we move on to City.

      If we win and Napoli win then we look set to more or less qualify for the next stage.

      I stopped playing a few years ago when I won the European Cup with Sunderland. It suddenly hit me I could do just as well lying in bed and fantasizing about any accomplishment.  :)

      It can be a fun waste of time, but it does seem to promote a simplistic view of what it takes to build a winning team and manage said team to success in real life.

      I would expect about 5 or 6 changes to the side with Citeh game coming up we need to lean on the squad players to get the job done like last week vs Arsenal and get us three points. A win and Napoli win would mean we only need 1 point in the last two games to secure spot in the knockout round.

      It would be nice to see a comfortable win and clean sheet to get a little mojo going, hoping to see Ox bang in a goal or two. If Salah is fit to play would like to start him and see if he can fine his scoring boots.

      Gomez-----Lovren-----VvD-------Milner
      --------Ox-------Fabinho-----Ketia-----
      ----Salah--------Firmino-------Origi----

      Got to get the likes of Gomez, Keita and Ox up to speed in games like this one. We are an injury away from depending on some of them so they need to be ready.

      Them three, Milner at full back and Origi in the front three are the changes I’m expecting (and Fabinho to play as well as he’s been off 10 days now).

      Win this, and we may well have the option of resting some players in the latter games, which would be a huge plus given our schedule.

      Ox, Keita and Fab in the middle. Hendo has been poor (goal aside) Wijnaldum is like he hasn’t returned from international duty and Lallana is, well Lallana.

      Going to be bold and go for a 4  0 score line, obviously for the Reds. Need to put them on the back foot from the start. A clean sheet would also be welcome.
