As they're in Germany in midweek, how will they perform? Do we have a chance at the lane? Lineup predictions? Mine is:
Reina, Johnson, Carra, Skrtel, Aurelio, Lucas, Meireles, Maxi, Cole, Kuyt, Torres.
Im getting this in early as i want to rid that dross from last night out of my mind.
What do we think then? The team that beat the champions were completely outplayed by a team certain to be fighting for relegation in May. Should we make changes? Stoke are a home team if ever there was one, and if we turn out like we did last night - we will be punished. Only Pepe and woeful finishing stopped that being defeat number 5 last night.
Its fairly obvious were gonna be subjected to lengthy antics of ball wiping and long throws - so its imperative Soto comes back imo.
Early thoughts?
