      I think Klopp has said Virgil is unlikely to play

      Let's make a real effort to win at City, after all we are the holders of this trophy. A 2  1 away win for the Reds would be a nice start on the resumption of the season.

      He has no chance Halland will start . Apparently all their Brazilians, Portuguese and English lads not involved.  Akanji and Ake at back De,Bruyne, Rodri,Mahrez, Gungodan will play I reckon

      aye anyone in the final will have at least a weeks holiday before being back with clubs, even then probs wont be pushed straight into teams. probably January before any of them start.

      What the f**k would you know?

      I hate this attitude or turning noses up at silverware.

      I absolutely loved winning this last season - let’s keep it going!

      I hope we trash ManCity but my expectations about our team have decreased since the start of the season. I hope we play well and show that we're improving. With a clear game plan and proper execution. I hope Klopp plays a proper team. Adrian starting would be a disaster.

      Have no idea what to expect to be honest from either side… just glad the club football is back to be honest.

      That's true . Both line ups no idea and also the rhythm of the players will be noticeable.  Still a massive game and win this we have a real chance of winning it again

      Obviously he's not going to phone in and play a vastly under strength side. It will be a mixture of experience with one or three younger players. Ramsey, Bajcetic. Doak possible. Milner and possible The Ox will be involved. Gone for a 2-1 win but with no great expectations.

      It would be a big confidence booster to get the win tonight giving us the foundation to go on a much needed winning run. It would be great to win it again, but I think we all agree securing a spot in the top 4 feels the most important goal for the rest of this season, it would undoubtedly damage our ability to attract top players in the summer if (God forbid) we were to miss out on the Champions league.

      Crucial Trent , Fab play this due to not having kicked a ball for over 6 weeks match wise.

      Good point. They might start.

      Alisson
      Trent
      Fab
      Henderson
      Konate
      VVD

      All rested tonight According to the echo, Trent and Fab WTF did they even play a game!

      With so many first teamers not available it might be a struggle tonight.
      Either way we have more important priorities like Top 4.

      Will come down to priority . Mancs played there English,Portugal and Brazil players. Pretty sure Casemeiro played all their games so not sure why Fab won't get minutes . Prob come on second half with TAA.
