Raya;
White, Saliba, Hincapie, Calafiori;
Odegaard, Zubimendi, Norgaard;
Saka, Gyokeres, Trossard

Give Norgaard a go vs his former team, Declan could do with a rest, need him during the weekend vs Villa. Same for Timber, get White in and restore that familiar right side which worked so well two seasons ago.

Trossard comes back in, if he’s not fit then Martinelli, Eze or Noni. Plenty of options.

Would love to see a Jesus cameo, hopefully the result allows us.

Agree with this.

Pretty strange that we play the early game on Saturday after this Wednesday game. You don’t play early when you have a CL game on Wednesday, right? Why would that same logic not apply here? Just put two of the teams that play on Tuesday on the early weekend game.

I don’t think that’s a rule tbh.

One win out of three in the league. Can’t afford to drop points here.

I’d be more keen to start Rice or Merino over Norgaard, hopefully get a good lead and then sub Norgaard on to see the game out.

This has been a tricky fixture for us in the past. Generally speaking our wins against them have been tight.

Perhaps not a rule per se, but I do think it is something Sky (or whoever plans it) adheres to.

They dont. TNT pick who they like for that slot. Do you not remember Klopp hating that KO time :joy:

Believe it or not, it’s actually the last time we’re scheduled to play an early Saturday kickoff for the rest of the season. I imagine that could change later on if any fixtures are moved, but I’m willing to endure it if we don’t have any more for the rest of the season, which is frankly amazing if true.

Yeah remember that, but I thought I had read that TV companies and/or PL had agreed not to combine the Wednesday/early Saturday time slots. But apparently not.

I don’t think all TV selections have been made yet, right? Doesn’t this also depend on CL draws and FA cup and League cup progression?

Its not. The tv picks are only up to January

Villa play the same time as us on Wednesday anyway.

It felt too good to be true

They have been shifting it this year that’s why we’ve seen a lot of 8pm Saturday games.

You’re not going crazy :slightly_smiling_face:

Yeah. We’re in a horrible position.
We need to win every game from now on.

I like this line up, maybe Eze in place of Trossard if Leo isn’t fit.

Having said that, we have Club Brugge and Wolves after Villa so maybe that’s then we rotate.

If we are resting Rice, I wouldn’t mind running with Ode, Eze and Zubi in the midfield.
