    I see some scouser’s moaning here about Pogba, wouldn’t have anything to do with Klopp saying Liverpool are ****ing skint would it? Spent all the money, just as they’re on the crest of a wave <laugh> ****in tramps.

    I didn't realise the players of the other 19 premier teams played for free.

    We just spent £85 million on a centre half, we don't need two DCM's for **** sake.

    It's one centrally, and then Pogba plays on the left of a more advanced pair. (Mata my choice for the other)

    Baffling your drop Dan James? Very odd.

    The front three would be James on left, No. 9 is Martial or Rashford or Greenwood.

    Right hand side, not sure?

    Personally I wouldn't move James there as it negates his strengths and Rashford and Martial are also less effective off the right. I wouldn't play Lingard there, so that position is a problem.

    Probably make Rashford play there, if he wants a game. Ashley Young?

    They don't? Did I say they did.

    If a player is even slightly injured, don't send him to England so they can finish the job.

    It's that straightforward. **** England, or any other international team, quite frankly.

    You'll know better than me but James is just young and needs to be brought in bit by bit other playing every game. The DM thing I agree on but my point is that both need to be workers for Pogba to be a lazy ****er and stay in an advanced position.

    In this respect, Mata may not be his best partner and Matic can't be the DCM.

    I'd have liked Fred to be given a chance but he seems to have disappeared.

    For now it seems to be McTominay and Pereira and we need someone better than the latter.

    I think if we can't beat Kosovo then we should give up on football.

    We're better than the Czech Republic though.

    They'd probably beat Wales though tbf.

    If that's the case then Kosovo beating the Czech Republic means nothing as well?

    Southgate and the lads were planning a big night out on the piss before the game before reading this post.
