WOW ! Szob, Robbo and Trent really fit enough for the bench ? Great news if they are. Massive trio to call on if needed.

Should find out tonight if Mo is gonna be available as well !

🤷‍♂️ Mo won’t be available until the AFCON is finished

NB: Team no longer available

I would rest Konate and Jones to keep them fit and drop Diaz.

Yes Jones asked to go off as a precaution. Felt his hamstring tighten up. So probably not available for Fulham.

🤷‍♂️ Mo won’t be available until the AFCON is finished

Egypt are playing a must win game again Cape Verde tonight and he's coming back to Liverpool after that match. His fitness aim is the semi final if Egypt get that far.

Semi finals are on 7th Feb so if Egypt do go out Mo might make it V Arsenal away 4th Feb.

As strong as possible really . Let the injured guys coming back use FA cup to get their minutes in no chance Robbo will.be risked being out so long and will more likely see him Sunday .

🤷‍♂️ Mo won’t be available until the AFCON is finished

Egypt may be out tonight 🤷‍♂️
What would be the point of him staying if that was the case 😳

Quansah in for Konate
Grav in for CJ
Gakpo in for Diaz

Ideally you can bring Lucho on for Jota around 60. I love Diogo to death, but I would still be cautious with him if the games permit it. He's played a lot lately.

Hope Szobo is back

I think TAA and Robbo may be little early for this game. Hope to see them and CJ back for Sunday...

Would be nice to see Middelsboro finish the job.

Get an early goal, and were gold. Use the padawan learner's 2nd half. L o l

Really looking forward to this game. They're a decent footballing team and deserve credit. So we can't take any chances. Strongest possible line up. With probably only Konate rested,Graver in for injured Jones.

0-2

Don't think we could rotate much even if we wanted to at the moment.

Kelleher; Bradley, Quansah, Van Dijk, Gomez; Mac Allister, Elliott, Gravenberch; Gakpo, Jota, Nunez.

Konate plays for me in a game of this importance,Gomez and Quansah can do Sunday

We don’t need to do Jack f***in sh*t, the onus is on them, they have to come out that will leave space for us to exploit, I don’t think Robbo, Trent will be risked, they might get a ten minute workout once the game is done and dusted, Szlobos might feature earlier than that but again, he won’t be over taxed,

Kelleher, Bradley, Quansah, Virgil, Gomez, Macca, G’Berch, Gakpo, Diaz, Jota Nunez,

 I’m going full on and for killing the tie early, hopefully we bag a couple before HT, we can then see where we’re at around the hour and if need be shuffle the pack, be great if Szlobo’s gets minutes, and even better if our two wingmen see game time too, make no mistake, this will Not be easy, so we need to be on our mettle,


I dunno but this has an air of inevitability about it, f***in arrogant Cnut aren’t I ?🤪 but I can’t help how confident i am that this just Pt1,  their is another 3 pots yet to chase and I wouldn’t put it past us we do them all ??


YNWA

Is Calvin Ramsay not available?

Don't know what his fitness levels are, or is he injured too.

I won't risk Jones, Trent, Dominik or Robertson for Sunday; with Chelsea, the Wednesday after.

This tie was left well in the balance. Away from home with a weakened XI we need to be willing to soak up pressure and then hurt them when we've done so.

Getting the first goal will be important for both sides as to where thus tie develops. If they get it again the heat is on.

Set piece goal would be lovely.

We should be aware of their ability from the first leg, so shouldn’t be underestimating them.
Strongest side available, but only fully fit
Players need apply. No injury risks going forwards.
They need to score, we don’t, so keep it tight and they will get impatient and that’s when we can counter effectively !
I’m thinking if we play this tactically right, we’re heading for a 0:2 win.

I’ve got it the right way round today. Against Bournemouth, I predicted  3:1 instead of 1:3 😱

Is Calvin Ramsay not available?

update, reading this morning, leeds want him on loan.

Look forward to this game, by the end of the evening, should be well and truly on our way to Wembley.

Hopefully more players will be fit by then, interesting who will be in the starting lineup for the final.

btw hope I am not jumping the gun !

Egypt are playing a must win game again Cape Verde tonight and he's coming back to Liverpool after that match. His fitness aim is the semi final if Egypt get that far.

Semi finals are on 7th Feb so if Egypt do go out Mo might make it V Arsenal away 4th Feb.

 

Egypt sneaked through on 0 GD...Ghana -1...so Mo still involved. Japan need at least a draw against Indonesia to progress.Playing tomorrow.
