This is it!

Our first game didn't go to plan but it's probably the game we could afford to lose so let's turn those frowns upside down and get three points on the board in our first CL home game for the 19/20 season.

[Norbs]

Quite looking forward to this, seems they're pretty attack minded so it'll be much better on the eye than Napoli

[The_weatherman]

Apparently Erling Haaland is doubtful, he's sick or something, I hope makes it, would love to see him against Virgil, I think he's got 4 hattricks already this season.

[The_weatherman]

Our last performances have been very agricultural, Napoli, Chelsea and Shee, Utd. are not our ususal performances, we have to get our **** together and start performing, the good news is we have loads in the bank and can improve a lot.

We don't have to do anything bar score more goals than we concede. If we're still winning despite being **** then great.

If we're **** all season and still win the league, then happy days. It just seems unlikely. Two home games will help us - we're not quite the same team away from home at the moment - not sure why. But home games will help our mojo. Shame about the international (yawn) break.

[The_weatherman]

Normally I agree, that I don't care how we play if we get the points, but the more games we claw over the line, the more likely we'll drop points IMO, hope we gather our Mojo now for the next two games, tbh I think it's also a case of not finding our rythm properly but maybe that kicks in now.

You really want their best player, who's scored 4 hat-tricks against us to play?


I'm ok with him missing it to be honest

You can only score what you are up against!...Most of the teams that Salzburg come up against wouldn't feature in the English championship, their league is a bit of the SPL where Celtic call the shots most of the time where Odsonne whatever is top scorer... exactly!

[frank the tank]

We've not been brilliant lately but on the back of the 4 away games we have had - if we were going to lose one then I would probably have picked Napoli. We all want the premier league title so badly this season.

Win 2 games this week and it has been an amazing start to the season. It is such a pity that we have international break coming up - just when we start to have a bit of momentum we seem to have a break in our season.

Getting back to RB Salzburg, I think most of the team picks itself. Options / potential changes include Gomez for either Matip or Trent? Possibly Ox or Naby for Henderson?

[Liverpool]

I've no idea how good these are tbh.

They will come out and attack us which in theory should play into our hands

It's still a pretty good record for someone who's what 18 or 19? One of those hat-tricks was against Genk too on his CL debut.

[BigChief]

Yep I'll be happy for Erling to miss this game. Can we afford to rest VvD? Probably not. Firmino is looking a bit tired now. And more sodding internationals coming up.

3 away games against teams that would rather stop the game than win it
