    Well, a point away from home is always good, especially when it's against a top team who are bang in form. Plus it's good that our forwards banged in a couple of goals. One can only be positive about today's performance and result.

    They wouldn't be available for the replay, but yeah could play against Leicester thereby allowing one of the current first team players to not need to be rested.

    But us, sign someone in January. And by mid-January, at that...

    Just seen result, worst possible outcome imo. Another match against a team who are not a big draw, at least no travel though

    I just can't accept all this resting/rotation nonsense. Too many happy clappers on here this evening.
    Things have to change and that is not more rotating/resting.

    Do you suggest the same XI for every game this month?

    Could give it a go. About the only line-up that has yet to be tried by Puel is the same one as the previous game.

    Today was valuable experience for the youngsters whilst resting the senior players for a cup semi-final, no damage done.

    Maybe, just maybe he has one eye on Weds? Maybe he's addicted to rotating, maybe he just likes annoying people on the internet.
    Its hard to call.

    You just can't play the same XI every match when you have the schedule we do ... wish people would ****ing realise that. Bored of hearing the same old ****.

    Results would be even worse if we WEREN'T rotating.

    So, Liverpool weds. Burnely Sat.
    Whats going to upset people the most. Strongest team, then rotate, or vice versa.

    Yes your best eleven as I don't see any of them benefitting from being rested/rotated.

    Why not? At least the spine of a team should stay consistent.

    You don't know they would be worse. I'm ****** bored of ****s saying that we should ***** rotate every ***************************** game and *********** like you who constantly say the same ************************************************************************************************ thing.
