[Paul12]

Ali

Quansah Ibou Virg Robbo

Szobo Ryan Macca

Mo Nunez Diaz

No keeper? Brave. That apart...

Depends if Robbo, Szobo, Ryan and Diaz have enough energy left to be starters. The rest are in regardless.

[spud_gun]

Is Ali not a keeper?

[spud_gun]

Just chuck a sickie - it’s day 1, they won’t fire you

Ali is right there as the first name in that suggested team

should have gone to Specsavers

I saw somewhere (so verified ) that Kelleher was going to start?

He started every other game, save for the one Jaros played, in this cup so would imagine, as with other seasons, he would see out our run in it.


Have to be honest, I would have been tempted to play Alisson in it, given his form in the league and CL of late, but Slot seems to have the same deal with Kelleher as Klopp did with regards to the LC

[Angryred]

Yeah, it's his competition so be cruel to take that away from him!

[Cerbie]

We will have to wait to see the starting 11 on Sunday. I wouldn't be surprised if Slot has a ruthless streak and starts Ali, especially now that we are out of the FA and CL.

Apart from the semi-final first leg away to Spurs. Alisson played that one, with Kelleher on the bench.

Then Kelleher was back in for the 2nd leg.

Exactly, no one on earth will think he's faking it!

Hah you should see this girl from a place I worked at. Got the job and after signing all the papers she told she was going on maternity leave for the next 2 years. Classic.

Surely there's something that could be done about that

We employed a lad back in the 90s. First day he arrived early, my Dad said 'go upstairs and make yourself a coffee or tea'. Never to be seen again

[spud_gun]

You murdered him?

Usually you take maternity leave just before birth, did no one think she was pregnant.

Generally the policy is you have to be employed for over 6 months before you can get maternity.

Typically most take less than a year - or a full year.

In the UK at least you only get full pay for 26 weeks IIRC.

Basically
