Thanjk you.
Paul.S
was quite happy for us to be dumped out here, but don't fancy back to back defeats and our fringe players haven't had much minutes in recent weeks so if we can get some nice ties in the next round or two. Would be ideal and can give Gomez/Matip some time in the next round
Are any of the youngsters available and close enough to the first team to play in this?
I know Philips and Brewster have been out injured for a while but what about Jones?
The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.
I pretty much agree with the above team. We've had 10 games in about 34 days or whatever it is, anyone of the big lads are anywhere near here and i'll egg Klopp's house. Already feels like we are pushing our luck a bit with the amount Salah, Bobby, Dijk, Mane and Robbo have played.
If it's 1-1 in the 94th minute I want us kicking it in to our own net.
Ok maybe not that extreme and I'm absolutely sick of the years passing without us winning stuff but such is the position in the league we can't have anyone important near this. **** draw really but Wolves fans think Nuno isn't arsed and will rest loads too.
I'm happy for us to have a run in the FA cup as long as we can rest key players: Alisson, VVD, Robertson, TAA, Salah, Mane and Firmino, the way the midfield have been rotated I think we should be ok, Wijnaldum has probably played the most so it would probably be worth resting him too.
If we can give some minutes to the likes of Jones, Brewster, Camacho and Philips alongside keeping the likes of Sturridge, Origi, Matip and Lallana match sharp I think that's probably a good thing.

I’d like to see as go all the way with the squad players, otherwise it’ll be more weekends like international breaks
Isn't it only rounds 3, 4 & 5 that have weekends set aside for them? Once you get beyond that you have to start rescheduling PL fixtures. That potentially becomes a big problem if we are still in the CL.

Yep if we go out we have an 11 day rest later in the month and 10 days in Feb.
In Feb we have Bayern, United, Watford, Everton in 10/11 days so a rest would be ok before it.
The only interest I have in the FA Cup is if we can get there via mostly players outside our first 11. I would loathe if we played a meaningless 5th round tie and lost Virgil for 2 months due to injury. This is our most robust challenge for the title in living memory for most fans I think the FA cup needs to be put on the back burner for now. Hope the team later will reflect that
