Atletico Madrid AWAY CL match day 3

[Alex]

Didn't Robbo come off with half hour to go on Saturday? Thats the most rest he's ever had during the season

[kev776]

Klopp wants qualification done ASP, I expect him to go full strength.

Yeah both full backs got hooked on the hour.

[BigChief]

Wtf are you talking about, a draw guarantees that they stay 2nd… a loss will keep them 2nd as well unless Porto win by 5 minus the amount athletico lose by.

After we beat the other 2 teams, I can’t imagine athletico would turn down a point off us.

Oops my mistake. For some reason I thought Milan beat them last game. If they're only playing for a home draw then we should take it easy ourselves.

Only way they are going to score is by us pressing high and leaving spaces at the back. Best way to frustrate a low block team is to play low block too. And if we do take that approach I'm happy to see Konate and Gomez both start.

Alisson
TAA Konate Gomez Tsimikas
Hendo Fabinho Keita
Salah Firmino Mane

Yeah, compared to last season Robbo's game time is being managed very carefully.

We have strength and depth all over the pitch, and that is taking into account the injuries.

[Shaggy]

You could be forgiven for thinking 'No Sign Of' were Thiago Alcantara's first few names.

[Mark79]

Yeah, Klopp speaking about him in last weeks’ presser sounded like Thiago is out for an indefinite period again, no timeline on when he’s expected back.

I'd be tempted to play Milner and Hendo and rest Naby for United as he's had a busy couple of weeks.

Or would be nice to see Jota AM and try to blitz Atletico early.

[S-RED]

Ox will start IMO, Naby has played 4 games in a little over a week; not sure we will risk him

A draw suits both teams. A win would be amazing for us though- would be one hand on the top spot in a very tough group, already.

Haven’t watched much of athletico, but they looked very lucky to get 4 points from their first 2 games in the group- I reckon if both teams go for it, we should be favorites.
