James Milner

[Fosterbloke]

Unshackled from the majority of defensive responsibilities, he's still a highly effective attacking player.

[Liverpool]

Think he's been underused this season. Especially with the middle 3 struggling most games.

[wiw]

Last night proved to me that Milner and Lallana (more Lallana, but still) give us a calmness on the ball that has been sorely missed recently. Would still rather see him at left back over Moreno and Robertson

[Maxiedge]

I definitely think he should keep his place on Sunday. For Gini. Henderson back in, Can and Milner ahead of him.

If Gini could be more clinical everytime he gets in the box (which is pretty much every attack) he would be a crucial component to the team.

As it stands, I agree that he is droppable but I also feel he will be missed as he does make an extra body in the box and we lack that (considering we don't play with an out an out striker)

Hey ho, I guess its a good problem to have.

When he's on it, I agree. I love Gini, but he's been utterly invisible in too many away games.

Milner has a crispiness to his passing , fires it in quicker and is aware of our attacking players awaiting the ball.

He seems more natural to the role than the other three to me . Surely done enough to be in the team,

its no good having one motm performance and then the next nine he is invisible.
we need consistency around the team and remove the weakest links.

He's class. I'd forgotten his ability to whip in crosses too. Deserves his place.

In place of who?

Hendo would be my pick. Milner Captain & Can his deputy for now

And Milner gets in referee's faces.

[danperkins]

Although he should be starting, I can't see him start after playing the 90 mins during the week. IMO we will be back to our normal trio vs Spurs.

And Can is vocal & encourages others

IIRC, they did some fitness test pre-season testing blood or sweat and Milner was still our fittest player. Having barely played all season, he'll be as fit as anybody for Sunday. We have 4 full days rest before this game and then a rare midweek off next week, so Klopp will surely pick his stringest 11.

That being said, I think you are right and for tactical reasons, Klopp will go with the usual three.

cause that’s served us so well this season hasn’t it?

In fairness to that midfield 3, we've very rarely (City aside) been overrun in midfield. If we could put away the clearcut chances that fall to us, the midfield threesome wouldn't even be an issue.
