Started a ‘game thread’ ahead of Tuesday’s unbelievably huge Champions League Semi Final 1st Leg.
This has to be our starting X1:
Karius, TAA, Lovren, VVD, Robbo, Wijnaldum, Henderson, Ox, Mane, Firmino and Salah.
Was going to put Milner in there and he could well start ahead of Wijnaldum but I think Klopp will save Milner until he’s absolutely needed (if we’re ahead with 30 left) but a shoe-in to start in Italy.
Roma have some cracking players and have had a great campaign topping their tough group containing Chelsea and Ath. Madrid. Roma tend to go 433 but they did that in Barcelona and got tonked so they may pack midfield and go 4231 with Dzeko up top on his Jack Jones.
I think we’re gonna do ’em but I also think Roma will sneak one. 3-1 for us.
