    We've named 2 CB's and 2 full backs in the line up. How does that work?

    They have greatly improved and we have got worse. Their front 3 can destroy any team if on song

    Bertrand as a centre back. He has played in the 3 before. Think he is being used there for his pace to cover Hoedt/Vestergaard being slow as **** and Mane/Salah being rapid

    You could be right with a 4-5-1 with Targett in front of Bertrand in a super defensive left hand side to deal with Salah

    Fair point, forgot Bertrand has done that before.

    I'm assuming Shaqiri hates Hughes, so he'll probably go all Arnautovic on us.

    I saw it as 5-3-2.

    Long and Redmond on the counter for long balls whilst the other 8 hold their shape and try to frustrate the feck out of Liverpool.

    Back 5 on the edge of the area, Long on the half way line, everyone else in between. Easy.

    I'm going with 4 5 1 I don't think he would use Bertrand as a CB when we have other options.

    I quite like it - flood the midfield to stifle service to the three amigos, two rapid fullbacks mostly staying at home to track them when they pull wide.

    Well if we can hold and frustrate them, and they're a bit dozy after their PSG game, and Redmond sneaks one in.....we have a chance....

    Please, please can Van Dijk shank one into his own net or get sent off. Or preferably both.

    If it is 3 at the back then Yoshida must be seriously questioning his future

    I've had two bits of luck today so I've had a few quid on it just in case.

    Built an insurance bet too just in case of course :biggrin:

    Up the ****ing Saints <cheers>

    just tried to do that bet in Serbia but they don't have Vestergaard on their system! So I'm stuck with Saints to win 1-0 at 30 to 1. Come on Shane!
