Sir Mikel OBE

Giroud definitely should come on at halftime. Let Werner continue to work the wings.

Very poor from Kante.

What exactly is Havertz bringing to this match?

Taxi for Kepa plz

"That wont help him where hes living" lmao

On the wings?

To be fair both are too slow to consistently deal with Salah.

He can play his golden child further back in the midfield if needed. And of course Havertz out wide....

No reason not to start CHO.

That blackpool side was fun to watch, but clear losers, and bit more boring pragmatism might have given them a better chance to stay up that season. In fact they won like 1 match after the festive period if I remember correctly. You dont stay up not even trying to play defence on a suicide run.

King Willian looking pretty average out there

Pep's style depends on outspending everybody, and having a much better squad than his competition.

Kai still has time. James didnt become a truly made man until he was 23 or so.

Why the hell is the Bertrand Traore thread closed for replies? Just signed for Aston Villa and is amazingly still only 25. I think he will be quality for them. He has all the tools.

No Alonso vs salah please.

Kai is lucky Alosno and RLC are shit. He would be the worst out there if not for them.

Take Alonso off.

Lamptey is owning Alonso.

Timo looking the real star. Kai seems disinterested...or out of position.

Lets be honest here. Frank is just keeping the seat warm for Poch.

that pace

This isnt good enough. liverpool will slice us open with this midfield and defense.

Nobody knows who to mark.

Lamptey looking good.

Ruled out of the opener because of injury....cant imagine zidane starting him this match anyway if he was overweight. Imagine Hazard with KDB's work ethic.
