Jones has to be played into a bit of form. He’s potentially a better option than Szloboszlai and could also do a job deeper if required. 
 

Bad period for Elliott to be out. 
 

I’m looking forward to seeing Chiesa but I doubt he’ll start. 

Jones in the Slot style 2?

 

Sounds like a bad idea to me.

 

He might be ok in the more advanced role to be fair.

I’m made up this is on prime! Highlights on BBC is better than nothing too. Really missed the ITV highlights show. 
However I’m a bit nervous for tonight after Saturday…

Yeah Prime is much better than BT and more affordable too. No Fletch or Macca. God bless Jeff Bezos.

Everything is affordable , 30 notes gets you every match that's played all over the planet for 6 months why on earth do people still pay for satellite TV . 

I'm going for a lie down.

If he’s only considered for the advanced role, it’s one from three from himself, Szoboszlai and Elliott.

 

From what I remember, he’d some good games from a relatively deep role with Klopp last year.

 

Of course, this will be all academic anyway if he can’t stay fit.

I do myself but some people can’t get their heads around the technology. Some people still never really use computers. Old people, mums with little kids.

Apparently it’s Slot’s birthday today so let’s hope we get a good win tonight. Perfect present.

He'll only get a Happy Birthday message off me if we win tonight.

A chance to put Saturday right immediately. I’d start Gakpo or Nunez over Jota and have Jones in over Szobozlai. Maybe Endo for Gravenberch

[JustTosh]

 

 

8/36 qualify for the last 16. A tough task.

 

9-24/36 have to play a two legged qualifier. Ending as top 24 of 36 should be relatively easy. Then we could go all strenght for the two qualifiers. Would give us the possibility to rest some of our players.

 

Should we play our reserves for the 8 games and aim for top 24 or send out our best XI and hopefully end top 8?

 

[Bobby Hundreds]

The only selection that could annoy me is if he picks the same team again.. or Mac Allister just give him some rest.

[Bjornebye]

Apparently a Liverpool fan has died in Milan after being hit by a car last night. RIP YNWA x 

[Kevin D]

It’s Milan in the San Siro and we got done in our last encounter with Italian opposition. 
 

Play the strongest 11.

Suppose it depends how much weight you put on playing the 2nd leg at home. I think it's seeded throughout the knockouts so the higher seeds play 2nd leg at home.

51-year-old Irish fan.

 

Two people with him seemingly legged it.

Awful. 

[Anubis]

Poor sod. RIP.

[niallers]

2nd leg of that play off is 3 days before we go to city in the league! We could be doing without the extra games regardless and that makes it even more of an issue.

[Binomial]

Team leaks surfacing that it's the same XI.
