I'm worried about Salah - do we know whether he might feature in this? I think i'm more nervous going into this with a 3 goal cushion than I would have been if it were level. City need to throw everything at us, which whilst plays to our strengths attacking-wise, is just a key for anxiety!
Assuming Salah is in the line-up seems obvious:
-----------------Karius------------------
TAA----Lovren----VVD----Robbo
-----------Millie------Gini---------------
------------------Ox---------------------
Salah--------Firmino---------Mane
Only difference I could see to this is Clyne starting over TAA. If Salah is out, then maybe TAA on the wing and Clyne at RB (or Moreno on another wing and Mane on the right).
I really really hope we go out big in the first 10-15 and nick that first goal. Do that, and hold them tight til half time (e.g. 1-1 and HT) and I think we can do it. I'd be worried if we went 2-0 down at our ability to keep our heads.
Based on their game at the weekend, and showings of it in the first leg, we also need to make the most of set pieces. Surely this is the game for VVD or Lovren to get their head on a corner or wide free kick. City lacking big time here.
