Even Klopp went strong in a cup game against Villa's kids last season to avoid that. A weeks rest while sticking the scratch side in for the FA Cup is more than adequate (if we get knocked out then go full strength in the FA). On a slightly related note given Kepa will be first choice for that period I wonder if we will see Bettinelli for the third round if it does turn out to be in the middle of two semi's. Guessing we might see a 50-50 side in the cup games. Just pray we don't have any injury crisis then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Know games to play and all but they're level with 4th and 5 behind us. Even if we win 8 behind isn't bad considering Edited October 30, 2021 by Laylabelle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAPHOD2319 4,848 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 With Leicester looking this shit and Liverpool calling off the dogs in the last 20 minutes last week against Man United, Tottenham might look like world beaters later today.

Pizy 19,032 Posted October 30, 2021 Share Posted October 30, 2021 No European football should help them stay fresh as well. Playing like they have been recently I’d be worried if I were Man United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
