So what do you think Peps take on this will be. Will he go full bore and high press and really go for it. At the same time leaving them open to our swift counters. Or do you think he may sit deeper endplay for a draw with a long shot of a quick counter and snatch the win ?
Ive a feeling he may go for the latter. A draw against the top side, away from home, might be just enough for him to stop the rot mentally.
They'll always have a chance to snatch one with that creature up top, so sitting deeper and playing longer balls up to him may be his plan, but can his players implement it, as they're not real trained to play that way.

I just think well have to much for them, even if they score, I think well just score more.

My gut feeling is 3-1

Win and we are 11 points clear - lose and we are 5 points clear

I think most, including Pep, will believe an 11-point gap is too much to claw back. It's not impossible by any stretch, but it needs us to lose four games while they win four games - so a four-game turnaround. While we could lose four, or more games from now until season's end, I believe City will also lose more games before the season's over. With a fit squad and confidence, I wouldn't put it past City to close the gap, but they are not that team anymore, at least not right now.

Do they go for it or play it safe? With their injuries, being away from home, and us in good form, I think they'll try to keep it tight and nick one on the break. I expect us to have a lot of possession in their half. We have to contain Harland, though. Gutted we lost Konate in the last few seconds of the Madrid game.

I think we win today by the odd goal, but I wouldn't be gutted with a draw, because we at least maintain our 8-point gap.

Cheatys strength is their attacking options. I think they will go for it today. They have to. They will find form soon. Hopefully not today !!!

That's the other issue, they might see this game as a turning point in their season. No better place to reinstate yourself as top dog and regain confidence.

Let's just win the game this afternoon, dent the Cheats confidence even further.

Any scoreline will do providing it's another win for the Reds.

Well Jack..(or is it Earnest)..would like Nunez to start.Yes they will wind him up but he is a handful. Granted he hasn't scored enough, only 2 prem this season but he offers much more. my front 3 Mo, Nunez,Diaz. But Diaz and Gakpo play well as a pair and interchange so it's a good shout and it could be the way to go. Depends obviously how Slot sees it. Close call.

Hopefully VVD and Gomez can keep that big donkey upfront quiet

A win today would obviously be massive. A loss would be a bit of a shocker and a draw would be fine.

A gap off 11 or 8 to them is quite significant. A gap of 5 not so much.

Think we have to park the 'cheaty' stuff..for now, and get on with the pure football challenge we are faced with. Tough game, wouldn't take a draw now as Arsenal would creep 2 pts closer but it would suffice I suppose.

Can't go gung ho right from the off as they have that oddball daddy long legs primed for the counter. Increase the heat gradually then create the Anfield pressure bubble that could kill them off.

Darwin also gets the crowd going. Arne will have a plan so I think he may go with Cody and Diaz in the middle. Joe alongside Virgil and Trent back in

Haaland: Nick Names so far:

Nick...The Blob...Donkey...Daddy long legs...The Octopus...The Farting Viking...Bucketface...Th e Experiment...and many more..

 Champions put their foot on your throat and if that’s what we want to be, that’s what we have to do today.

this really does feel huge. no matter what the position is great, i mean if the worst happens we're still 5 points clear. if we win...…im not gonna be able to control myself. still expect it to be one hell of a game, absolutely not having it that they aren't going to be seriously tough.

Honestly… even though this is kinda a free hit being 8 points clear… I’m absolutely bricking it… I’d be devastated if we gave them anything…

The Anfield faithful will get us over the line today.

Apparently Pep has opted to drop Ederson in favour of Ortega.

Mancheater115 now 5th,  candidates for the dreaded Thursday League..against top sides like Bodo Glimt..ho ho hum..

Rumour has it he'll be wearing gloves today...he might need them..

We know lfc will put us through the wringer today we won't will 4 =0 with two goals each half. I see City coming for a draw
