Sunday front three

Jota gets goals though. Diaz and Salah draw defenders away. Diaz with his raw pace and agility and Salah tends to draw two as teams know just how little room they can afford to give him.

Jota, a solid goal getter, in between two guys that will draw defenders towards them sounds like a good idea to me.


Plus if two of our midfield are Thiago and Fabinho then we would not need to rely on Bobby for any control.

Diaz/Bobby/Salah for me.

It's extremely tricky to choose though! Diaz and Bobby I think will hold the ball up better than Mane & Jota and get us moving forward quickly whether it's a run in behind from Diaz behind Walker & Stones or Bobby robbing Rodri and sending Salah or Diaz through.

Mane and Jota both great off bench for this one to kill them off. My concern with starting them is that inability lately to hold onto the ball and turn. We can't afford to lose it quickly when playing it forwards and allow City to keep coming at us.

Salah with 5 days rest will hopefully be re-charged and is a big game player. Plus he will occupy 2 players as usual and also get Cancelo going the other way.

Extremely difficult choice, huge split in the Est fanbase over the front line.
Went for:
Diaz - Jota - Salah

Need to give them an unknown to deal with from kick-off so Diaz gets the nod on the left, but now wondering if Bobby would be better than Jota since Bobby brings a level of class in the big games that we probably need to break through them, and is also less likely to have an off-game vs Jota.

I don't think salad is going to be dropped, so lettuce assume klopp plays him.
