FC Bordeaux (A): Build Up

[DannyMan2006]

Realistically it may be our only hope of Champions a league by the time Rodgers gets the bullet, so let's hope we hang about for a while.

[Fredo]

Do we have to go through this again and inflict misery to our already battered souls? Kill the football forum for a while ffs.

[PTP]

I'd like to see us just play a completely different XI...no reason why we shouldn't. Well apart from injuries because I'm not sure what we've got in reserve at the moment haha

But certainly starts for bogdan, sakho, Moreno, origi etc

[Exiled_red]

I think I'd probably go with something like this (assuming Henderson, Allen, Lallana and Sturridge aren't fit enough to start

----------Bogdan---------
--??-- Sakho Toure Moreno
---Can Rossiter Teixeira----
-----Ings - Origi - Ibe------

Not sure who would play at RB as other than Clyne and Flanagan I can't think of anyone. TBH I would have liked to have kept Ilori and given him a run out in these games instead of Toure but as he's on loan that won't happen.

Play Gomez at right back, keep Moreno for the league, give Enrique a run out if he's fit.

[frank the tank]

I would like to see:

-------------------------------MIGNOLET------------------------------

CLYNE---------GOMEZ------------------------SAKHO-------MORENO

-----------ROSSITER----------LUCAS--------MILNER----------------

-----------------------------TEIXERIA---------------------------------

------------INGS--------------------------ORIGI----------------------

Think it's time for Gomez to have a breather TBH. Has done relatively well for his level of experience, but the last couple games have been tough going for him.

That's why I didn't put him in the side I put above.

[danperkins]

We should play a weakened side for this one. (i.e. our first XI)

[Fan65]

My hopes & aspirations for my team are at an all time low

I fear it's the turn of a second tier French team to embarass us

To feel like this after so many great years in Europe is a sad testament to how poor we have become.

I hanker for the days of listening to the wonderful Peter Jones commentating on the steam radio (pre sky and live midweek footy on the Beeb )

Mostly battling hard for a point away from home knowing they had no chance in the return at Anfield, great days indeed, St Etienne anyone?

[Mattshark]

Terrible really, but i can't be arsed with the Europa right now, not because i wouldn't like to win the thing, but because i know we wont, and it's just more time spent treading water, waiting for the inevitable.

If we're to waste another season, then lets do it by being in transition, a new manager settling in, getting to know a new squad, who'll stay and who go, all looking ahead to a new start next season with a decent transfer kitty.

While there are decent candidates available.

The idea of watching us is depressing at the moment.

enrique has not been named in the europa league squad.
