    Your team v Man City

    We saw shoots of recovery in the West Ham and Tottenham games, but it's very clear there is still some rot in the plant.

    Assuming Mane and Fabinho are still injured -

    .........................Alisson

    Trent...Phillips.....Kabak...Robertson

    .......................Wijnaldum

    ................Henderson.......Thiago

    ...Salah...........Firmino..........Shaqiri

    Honestly there's 4 or 5 of them I'd rather not play after that display but until Mane/Fabinho/Jota are back, our options look a bit limited.

    Have tossed Kabak in early. Henderson is desperately needed in midfield at this stage and Kabak is renowned for having some fight in him, which we need. West Ham and Everton are a bit close for comfort just now.

    No way I'd play Shaq as LFWD after that display, it was fucking woeful, absolutely fucking woeful, we need a player who will offer the movement and runs in behind in that position, Ox is the only one of our players to ever come in for Mane and offer that, so Ox at LFWD for me, it just fucks us up and makes us easier to defend when we don't have those runs in behind, a player coming short and consistently passing backwards as Shaq, Origi and Jota have all done when played there just isn't any good to us

    I'm going with the 2 new CBs, fuck it

    Alisson

    Trent Kabak Davies Robertson

    Thiago Henderson Wijnaldum

    Salah Firmino Oxlade

    Copy/paste the team text with all the dots takes about a second.

    Predictive text means a couple of sentences takes a further 20 seconds or so.

    Takes one of our throw-ins and a corner to type it and store it to clipboard.

    Copy, paste. We're talking 45-90 seconds for the lot, done over the course of maybe two throw-ins and the ball being out of play for a corner and I miss none of the in-play aspect of the game.

    In theory, yes - and needless to say I would have him in my side if he is, as would pretty much everyone.

    No chance I’d start Shaq and we won’t start with those two at CB. Either Henderson or Fabinho will be one of them.

    Jones also deserves a start, Thiago and Wijnaldum did absolutely nothing tonight.

    I just hope Fab’s back at CB, Henderson and Jones are two of the midfielders and Mané is back.

    Unfortunately we have no choice but to play Bobby, we have absolutely no alternative until Jota is back.

    Suspect I might feel the same in the Morning to be fair, though after that abject display I'd be inclined to throw caution to the wind right now.
