Sublime performance from the front two on Saturday but I would revert to a back four and packed midfield against Liverpool.

Ryan

Bernardo
Webster
Dunk
Veltman

March
Lallana
White
Bissouma (more attacking role as White the DM)
Trossard

Welbeck

Subs; Steele, Burn, Ali J, Alzate , Maupay

Ryan
White Dunk Webster
Bissouma
Veltman Lallana March
Gross
Maupay Welbeck​

By the looks of this thread, we'll have trouble filling our bench, although I can give it a go:

3412
Ryan
White
Dunk
Webster
Veltman
Bissouma
Gross
March
Lallana
Welbeck
Maupay

Subs: Sanchez, Burn, Bernardo, Molumby, Propper, Jahanbakhsh, Connolly
(and that's assuming that Mac Allister, Trossard and Izquierdo are all unavailable)

That’s a good point. I forgot that 7 subs can be named even if only 3 used. Will watch the U23 game this afternoon in the hope that Izquierdo is ready for the bench on Saturday. Molumby also an addition to the bench.

I'd like to see him give Maupay a bit of time out and give Zeqiri a go. Welbeck made Maupay look a level below him on Saturday I thought, the backheel shot instead of passing and the fact Maupay didn't score when through one on one.

Losing Tariq for this is a bit of a problem as Potter will know the extent of the threat which Robertson poses.

My view is that we will retain 3 at the back and push Ben White into action as an auxillary RWB. The reason being he that he has the best instinct for sniffing out danger and getting himself back into position in the squad.

Less attacking, but we'll look to hit them on the break

Leicester went back 3 last night and Liverpool sent raking balls and made quick one-twos involving Robertson to get him in the space where a right back would be. Whatever happens we need our quickest centre back option to be patrolling that space.

Will be tough, Liverpool seem to be finding the rythm again

I’m going to go for this...

Ryan
Veltman - Dunk - Webster - Burn
White
Ali J - Bissouma - Alzate - March
Maupay​

Tough one, bordering on madness, to leave out Welbz and Lallana but this one, for me at least, is a game where I’d rather them be rested and brought in later if required.

I would have problems playing a back three with Veltman in midfield. Robertson will exploit this big time. He will have a better chance as a right back i a four.

Veltman for Lamptey and Trossard in for Gross and job done.

I mulled over Alzate for Lamptey but given the Mane Robertson threat down the left felt a more experienced defender was in order.

As much as I want to cram Alzate in the team

Although I normally advocate extreme caution, this time I think we have to attack their weakened back four, so I'd go with Welbeck and Maupay.

Ryan

White Dunk Webster

Alzate Bissouma Gross March

Lallana (if fit, Trossard if not - or Alzate here and Veltman at right back)

Welbeck Maupay

A two-goal win would take us above Manchester City, although probably only for a short time - they play Burnley in the 3pm.

So, we should ATTACK.
