    Crap he has gone for a weakened team. Milner will be run ragged before being sent off. Midfield is to slow and back four will not have VVD to organise them. It could be a long night

    That’s a risky defence and midfield. Hope klopp knows what he’s doing here and doesn’t do a madrid and make this a lot harder than needs to be.

    Bonus, if we get through with that team, should be fresher for city at the weekend.

    Too slow too weak, asking for trouble. It might get difficult to claw back if it goes wrong

    I thought it felt like we play them a lot.

    Christ that's a risky team! Benefica looked dangerous last week with our starting XI. Could be a very long edge of seats game...bench looks strong though :undecided:

    Well that's that then.

    Serious risk taken so the players.picked need to man the **** up.

    Konate. Milner. Jota. Gomez.

    Look they are all part of our squad and all good players so let's chill and I'm sure they'll see it's over the line. Like most said earlier the attitude is what's important.

    Yup.

    Jota right wing doing nothing for 60mins.

    Defence all over the shop

    Midfield over run.

    Just get through it.

    Let's be honest that team should avoid a 2-0 defeat if they play anywhere near their capabilities. Definitely a risk though.

    It’s not a bad team let’s be real. Matip and a Konate been great, just haven’t played together. Same with Gomez he’s done well at RB. Kostas again been solid at LB. We all know what Hendo and Milner bring. Keita needs a big game. And front 3 are all very good.

    Think it’s just because we don’t have VVD organising, Fabinho covering. Salah and Mane need a rest and been out of form
