      Lads who of been off need minutes here before Madrid. So Firmino , Fab, Trent , Phillips all start for me. Really think Naby should start as well Robbo and Wijnaldum might need a break in this one

      Yeah I dont disagree but I just dont see Robbo not playing. Are Scotland in action or only a friendly? And has Tsimikas featured for Greece?

      Scotland play as do Greece notice Tzimikas didn't feature in friendly after playing against Spain so will see. Probably right but if he plays full 90 again its a lot to ask will be five games in 13 days including Arsenal and Madrid

      Don't ask for a link, but i'm hearing Gini's move to Barca might be off, and he's still not signing for us. IFF thats right, his head will be in a spin, so probably not a god time to play him. Especially after he was subbed by Holland and wasn't at all happy about that. Doesn't seem to be in a good place mentally right now, but who knows.

      Anyone know what commitment the Arse players have had to make in the internationals, compared to our lads ?

      A win against Arsenal, who have not been in great form themselves this season, would be a great start, to April's fixtures. Although a draw would not be too bad a result. Feel more confident playing away these days, the way things are going !

      Hopefully we can get the 3PTS... still think we can get top 4 if we can get a run going.... will be a slightly weird game I reckon with both teams eyes firmly on the European ties particularly them. We need the W more so going for a 2-1 victory.

                             Alisson

               Trent   Nat       Kabak Tsimikas

                         Ox   Fab     Keita

      Keep Robbo Jota Thiago and one of Mo/Sadio back

      Why in the f**k would you start Bobby, no need to be that nice to Arsenal, he can come on the final few minutes, same as Origi normally does. Seriously, Bobby is now back up, our front three for the rest of the season, barring injury and  fatigue, must be Mo, Diego and Sadio.

      Because hes been sat in the training ground the last 2 weeks while the rest have been playing competive. Hell be mad to go and it gives a chance to rest Jota for Madrid

      What kind of reason is that?? I'm sure Origi is chomping at the bit to start a game as well, but that's not enough of a reason to drop Mane, Salah or Jota!

      Jürgen said before the international break that he thinks it'll be unlikely that we'll be finishing top four and I think that'll reflect in the selection on Saturday with the majority of the lads away on international duty that might face Madrid being on the bench.

      Alisson; Trent, Phillips, Kabak, Tsimikas; Fabinho, Keita, Jones; Origi, Firmino, Mane.

      Could see Milner in for Keita/Jones or even at LB.

      You really start  all the lads who have played 3 internationals in the last 10 days against Arsenal even though we have a massive gsme Tuesday night?

      Can't wait for this -- been too long without any decent footie to watch!! 

      Jota must start.  Also, I want to see Keita get an opportunity with Thiago and Fab in midfield.  Fab can be the destroyer with Thiago and Keita given more license to get forward and be creative in the final third.  As such, I'd go for this:

      Ali
      TAA - Philips - Kabak - Robbo
      Fab
      Thiago - Keita
      Salah - Jota - Mane

      And why can we not build momentum if Firmino starts?  We wete quite lucky the Brazilian lads and Trent were not in action the past 2 weeks, we should use that to our benefit.

      Try telling me that if We go Mo Jota Sadio and one, even just one of them gets a knock that ruled them out of Tuesday that this place wont go into meltdown that they were not rested.

      People go into meltdown for any reason these days. Still have a chance to get top 4, playing against the likes of Comoros and Gibraltar shouldn't be too tiring.
