Origi, Shaqiri and Mane it is then. Imagine if Origi fires us into the Champions League final.

Brewster on the bench. Comes on to score in the 96th minute to make it 5-1.

Looks as if we're going through to the final.

 

That's nice.

Barcelona need to feel like they are entering Mordor tomorrow.

City draw tonight, we win tomorrow 3-0 take it to pens and win, He who died for our sins missing the crucial ‘spot kick’

Won't be a crucial spot kick

Alisson will save all 5

I was dejected on Wednesday, but I just have a funny feeling for some reason that at Anfield, on a European night, we might at least make this closer than anyone expects. It could be something like a heartbreaking 4-1, or we might just play out of our skins and do the seemingly impossible.

 

Fucking Roma did them last year, albeit with an away goal, so there is a bit of fragility there. They'll be turning up expecting a nice smooth progression to the final. We have to do everything we can to piss all over their parade.

I felt like that until Mo and Bobby out.

Anfield atmosphere plus early goal you never know but with Bobby out especially we don’t play half as fluently.

Haha! What a hit, son. What a hit. 

[ZonkoVille77]

As long as he doesn't fuckin play Gomez at RB and Lovren at CB then we're in with a shout. I'd go with this 442 diamond and beat them 5-1. Then again I'm only a wanker so what do I know compared to Klopp.

 

Alisson

TAA  Matip  VVD  Robbo

Fab

very true mate but i look back over the years at teams that we have played on a european night and the odds were stacked against us where nobody expected us to pull off the impossible yet we somehow managed it ie Dortmund and AC milan in 2005.I do think Barca showed there hand abit with the onslaught they expect by resting the whole first team over the weekend....aslong as we don't go out with a whimper we can hold our heads high and be proud 

[Jenson]

Lovren & Matip centre half, VVD up front. They won't know what's hit them.

Yeah, with those two on the pitch I might have fancied "something strange to happen", but there's practically no chance we're overturning a three-goal deficit against one of the best teams in Europe without Salah and Firmino, especially as they're being replaced, in all likelihood, with Origi and Shaqiri. They'll also have been well rested while we had a big game 72 hours prior. I mean, obviously, come on to fuck, let's try our best to do it, but it's a practically impossible task IMO. 

[Ne Moe Imya]

If City were to drop points then I would be in favour of just playing the U23s against Barca.

 

Semi-final or no semi-final, the Wolves game would then be our most important game since Istanbul. And yes, I'm including the two CL finals since then in that as well. Couldn't be risking an injury to Mane or van Dijk or something daft if there were to be a game of that magnitude coming up on Sunday.

 

If City win tonight then we may as well have a go. Go with Origi and Mane up front and just run at them. If we get a goal back in the first half, then who knows? Anfield has certainly been the scene of bigger comebacks, though not many.

[Mcfaggen]

Be nice ifthe shithousery was pulled up early by the officials & Barcelona has someone sent off in the first 20 minutes.

Headline writers’ dream if he got the goal that was worth a fortune financially.

 

BREWSTER’S VAST AMOUNT OF WEALTH FOR REDS  or something similar. 

[Guest Alex_K]

We’ve had terrible luck in Europe this decade. Maybe next year will be our year.

Neither VVD or Oxlade were part of training today.
