Hard for me this one as I don't go on the match threads until after the game but having opened my big mouth thought it beholden of me to do the thread.
We need senior players to kick into gear so do we play them or do we give some younger players the opportunity to step up to the first team right now. Bajcetic springs to mind? Kelleher Ramsay Konate VVD Tsimikas Bajcetic Elliott Jones Salah Nunez Carvalho
phillips? in general if we had any kids we really wanted o progress in seniors now is the time. we lack any forwards in u21 category. gordon is long term injury clark is meh cannonier is decent at youth level but imo well off the level needed I owuld have to ay i'd agree wiht oyur team and not cae if its 2-0, 10-0 or 0-0. (to napoli) infact i'd as good as nod at thie rlad and sa no injures, no hammerings top spot is yours.
Is vvd? do we need to rest players/ get some fit or ae we trying to do somehting esle with your line up? usrely if its ramsey, kelleher and konate for getting a run out then we might as well rest vvd as well. I'm all for carvalho and those 3 getting some game time and seeing if they are arsed to work. you've also jone sin so about 50% of that line up is guys needed game time or bajectic getting a game. why not go they whole way and give the "seniors" only 2 games in next two weeks to turn their form about of be perma dropped in January. (spurs and Southampton) And I'd be the harsh type to speel that out in no uncertain terms. I'd also be deluded enough to think that a deal or two could be struck early in decenter to get players in to do exactly that. (if we ant to show ambition)
It really doesn't mater. This doesn't do much bar a 4-0 means we can be top of group. its almost impossible as at this point so really not what we need for collecting the scraps of points in the league thats left. By all means give a few a go. but if we are pulling out and running awya form the ball (fabinho, vvd 100%) then why bother playing them? Why not give kelleher (must be rusty as ****) Ramsay (30mins i think), Konate (we really need him back), Bajetic (why not) jones (to try rest others), carvalho (at LM/LW to try prove something to klopp), tsimikas (cos why not) but id as soon stick Philips in and try show he still exists so we can sell him in january as watch vvd mind himself again I'd not be that bothered to stick the ox in but we might as well put salah on the bench as well We have aready qualified for the u19s uefa CL thing. we play napoli and need a draw to get top spot min. havey Blair wouldn't be near ready for this. clark is more a 10 at best. doak is quite young but is RW as well. frauendorf is again more of a 10 Cannonier sincerely doubt klopp would grab. think he got a knock anyway musialowski is also seemingly not loved.
Napoli arguably the best side in Europe atm...............lets have a go at them. They have Atalanta at the weekend which may help us.
I really don't think they are that good TBH. we absolutely gifted them goals. yes they at top at hom and unbeaten and obviously have had it easy in europe but i do not think they are as good as all that.
