      Expecting a lot of changes here, just need to win but without over working key players. Any win will do.

      Id leave Bobby in after netting on Saturday, see if he can get a run going. Minamino and Jota up with him.

      Back 5 as is so my roation would be Jones Milner and Shaq in the mid give Gini a rest

      Have no real knowledge of the opposition, although by the sounds of things, a decent win on the cards. I will go with 3  0 to the Reds.

      No Matip or Tzimikas would play Milner at LB but would leave us short midfield no Keita or Thiago

      Always be cautious of any unkown opposition but honestly our B team should be more than strong enough for this.

      Could play the same back 4 giving them more game time to gel and build up familiarity and confidence in their play. Jones might get another go in midfield.Probably Shaq as well.

      Alisson. Trent,Fab,Gomez,Robbo,Shaq,Jones,Milner,Mo,Mini,Jota. But could be Origi gets a start.

      3-0.

      I only care about getting 3 points on the board.

      Everything else is secondary to that.

      I'd be surprised if we see that many changes, best to get points in the bag and qualification sorted before taking it all for granted.

      Back 4 the same, Hendo & Milner, Minamino possibly replacing Sadio or Mo to give one of them a rest

      Keep Bobby in the team and hope he can bag again.

      Agreed; resting/rotation is nice but secondary.

      Think some want to treat this as a Carabao cup match...

      I see no reason to play Adrian unless we have no other option,. Allison could do with another game to get up to speed anyway, he was a teeny bit rusty on Saturday.

      Qualify for knock out rounds first, then let’s talk about rotation. Take no team for granted.

      The medical team know who can play and for how long.
      The reality is that sports science these days, monitoring fatigue etc is really advanced.

      IMO, it's get the 3 points in the bag, then bring on subs.
      We're allowed 5 now, so it makes sense to use them.

      Without being too disrespectful I’d be very tempted to play a full strength in yer face X1 and F**k them up good and proper for 45 minutes, let’s get this won a.s.a f***in p, let’s be honest they’re not gonna give us any grief are they ?

      So first half batter the F**k out of them, non stop pass & move and see how many times we hit the onion bag, second half change things , get the inexperienced on and give them valuable minutes, and batter them again, F**k em, be ruthless we’re not in this to be friends, you don’t win sh*t being friendly, so I’d be saying this to my players, take no prisoners we have another ‘big ears’ to win, do it for Virgil, do it for our fans, show them how much we miss them, most of all do it for yourselves, I want their players crying at HT, crying of embarrassment, show them & the rest of Europe we’re coming to retake our crown,


      Let’s f***in do this  ! !

      Was a very attacking line up for the Sheffield, but thought we were a bit open thro the middle.

             Alisson
      TAA Fab Gomez Robbo
       Hendo Gini Milner
      Shaq Minamino Jota

      With Keita, Fab, Ox and Thiago unavailable to line out in the middle, lucky we still have good options there. Really glad now Gini didn't pack his bags.
      Tough day for Jones getting pulled at HT, really good going forward but maybe needs to work on the intensity getting the ball back.
      Would start a diff front three and give them a solid base to work off from the middle, let them work the chances. Thought Jota and Minamino at least showed enough that they should be given a chance in CL match.
      Weakest team in the group, prob Jürgen will start at least one from Bob/Mane/Salah, but lets see.
      Looking forward to the game...
