Their right full,vasquez, it's out. Pcl injury. They've no recognised right full so they may play mendy there and play marcelo left or a midfielder.

They still have Odriozola who is a right back. He was on the bench for the first leg and replaced Lucas Vazquez in El Clasico.

I'd be very surprised if Fabinho wasn't moved back into defence for this.  We've literally no chance of not conceding with Phillips and Kabak back there, so I think Klopp will bite the bullet and hope that a midfield of Thiago, Gini and Jones/Milner can cope without Fabinho.

We keep more clean sheets with Fabinho in front of Kabak and Phillips than with Fabinho alongside one of them and somebody less than Fabinho in midfield.

We don't play Real Madrid every weekend.  To have any chance of gong through we need a clean sheet.  I can't see any way that happens with the slowness of Phillips back there and the inexperience of both Phillips and Kabak.

This is the type of carry on that got us into the mess we are in. Weakening a second area of the team to marginally(at best) improve defence.

 

We just need hope the rest of the team being at full strength  can cover the weakness of the centre of the defence.

If we won mate you’d have to call the baby after the one who scored the winner.

 

If we'd had a wee boy, I had negiotated "Jurgen" as a middle name.  I highly doubt she'll let me call our daughter Mohammed.

Is fucking right.

 

Months of being absolutely shite can be largely laid at the door of destroying our midfield to fill holes at centre half.
