      You can take the Met line to Wembley Park ( 20 mins ) then walk from there which is about 10mins

      Good morning Reds everywhere, just woke up, no I donā€™t mean Iā€™m more socially aware, from a sleep which was alcohol induced, so Iā€™m nursing a bit of a hangover, fry up on the go, preceded with ice cold Irn Bru, feeling better already,ā€¦..

      Itā€™s here at last, a day out at Wemberlee, a day where we once again light up North London with our colourā€™s our flags & banners, where the swirling of red&white scarfs at the final whistle will be a sight to behold, belting out ā€œYouā€™ll never walk Aloneā€ with the tears flowing with joy & happiness so looking forward to all those celebrations, a league cup final, A domestic cup final we havenā€™t had for a wee while, but the taste will be so sweet we will want moreā€¦.


      Our boys will be ready, not just fitness levels but mentally, JĆ¼rgen and his staff are specialists at preparation for these kind of games, big games where a win is the ultimate no matter what, everyone knows what their task is, everyone on the same wavelength, we work as a unit together as one, we are the mentality monsters, we know how to get things done, especially finalsā€¦

      The X1 to start ā€¦..
                                            Kelleher
                              Trent   Matip   Virgil   Robbo
                                Hendo  Fabinho  Thiago
                                   Salah  Mane  Diaz

             Bench;  Alisson, Konate, Kostas, Milner, Naby lad, Jones, Ox, Taki, Jota, Gomez, Divock


      Much debate whether Konate plays with Virgil but as accomplished as Konate is, I think Matip is better suited, he gets my nod, big shout out to Kelleher, he must be absolutely buzzin, to play in a major final and more importantly knowing that he has JĆ¼rgenā€™s trust, that in itself will fill him with confidence, with Trent, Joel, Virgil & Robbo in front of him is extra special for him,

      Henderson, Fabinho and Thiago are probably our strongest midfield trio, ably backed by Milner, Naby Ox, Jones, donā€™t think Harvey will feature, so plenty of options and trust, up top itā€™s possible Jota starts but given that he struggled to be fit I doubt JĆ¼rgen will throw him in at the start, so for me it will be Salah, Mane & Diaz, with Mane through the middle,

      Five subs are allowed giving us extra options,  probably see Milner, Jota, Taki, & Divock, & Ox or Naby, bit of a lottery depending on how weā€™re doing?


      Think itā€™ll be as tight as a Nunā€™s punanni with only one or two in it either way, however, I think at the moment we are flying and will take some beating, so Iā€™m edging us to win it within 120, canā€™t see it going to pens but if it does, well Iā€™m biased, 5-4 to us.



      3-1 Mighty Redmen

      My wife's birthday dinner today and we've a table booked for 6pm.

      37 weeks pregnant so I'm not wanting to cross her

      Hopefully we've it sewn up by 5.45 when we have to leave and I don't need to sit on the phone until its over 🤣

      No debate for me Kelleher should and will start the game.

      After that it's full strength for me and I include the skipper despite a poor season as last three games or so he's been back to approaching his best.

      Kelleher

      Trent     Matip     Virgil     Robertson

      Fabinho

      Henderson    Thiago

      Salah         Mane         Diaz

      Well itā€™s all your fault mate, couldnā€™t keep it in yer pants could ye, tut tut, shame on ye ! What happened wis ye pissed or summit, donā€™t you know that all male Liverpool  fans are not allowed sex until August, and only in August after which weā€™re all wankers, thatā€™s what everyone calls us, anyhoo you dirty man, you better hope the latest Red holds on for another 5 hours before making his debut, ā€¦

      Anyhoo Happy Birthday to yer Missus, be nice to her, donā€™t get locking her in a cupboard for instance when the gameā€™s on, youā€™ll pay for it later, trust me, all the best pal to you and especially your wife and the wee one, hope he/she hangs on.


      Up the Reds

      I'll be sound mate don't worry. Had already made a decision not to go, had both mine and my brothers seasies come up I was gonna tell my brother to take my nephew the match. So boxed someone from work who'd been asking me from start of season for any spares 

      Paris or the run in for the league will be sound  :laugh:
