I hope we can show a bit more intensity at the very beginning and make the 2nd leg a formality or at least a bit easier.

So Robertson is suspended for this yeah! Interesting decision to make as his replacement. I’d suspect Milner to cover there yeah? I really can’t see Moreno getting a start for us ever again but are there any other options?

Potential to break Gomez back in, definitely see two changes in the defence for this one

[Fosterbloke]

TAA to left back and Gomez to right back?

Nah least disruption as possible and Gomez has played LB before.

There's about 20 back four combinations that make sense. I'd be tempted to rest Trent for Sunday also give Matip a breather for Gomez/Lovren.

PS. I edited Australian times as daylight savings ends this weekend.

[SB]

Surely too big an ask for Gomez to come in for this? Surely?

[danperkins]

No way Gomez starts

[Exiled_red]

I had forgotten that Robertson was suspended for this. Hopefully the day off will do him good and he csn be fresh for the title push. Surely Milner to left back is the prefered option. TAA is not a LB so that won't happen, and I doubt Gomez will start anyway. Moreno could come in but I hope not (and I'm guessing I'm not the only one )

[Norbs]

What about Hoover?

[Fredo]

Moreno will play.

You are definitely the only one to even mention it though.

Cant take Porto too lightly and I don't think Klopp will. Back four of: TAA - Lovren - VvD - Milner

[Fosterbloke]

---------------- Alisson

TAA ---- Lovren ---- VVD ---- Milner

Henderson --- Fabinho --- Wijnaldum

Goals ---------- Goals ---------- Goals

Although perhaps Gini needs a break. Keita for me in CM

I was pissed off that Moreno made the bench v Southampton but forgot that Andy was suspended.

Would prefer to see Milner at left back
