Fielding two teams in two competitions on the same day,

[LeTallecWiz]

I'd play teh following

Adrian
TAA Gomez Lovren Milner

Lallana (sorry Modo)
Ox Gini

Elliot Brewster Mane

And against whoever in Dubai:

A Becker

Hoever VvD SvB Robbo (no better way to help our Dutch kids but to let them play with Virgil)

Fabinho
hendo Keita

Salah Firmino Origi

 

[HC]

We get to watch the reds twice in 24 hours?

..yay

Fuck the FA etc etc

What about the subs?

 

[MomoWASright]

I wish we weren't in either of these competitions.

I’m made up we’re in the CWC. It means we are European champions.

 

[binomial]

This is crazy

As if December wasn't conjested enough.

 

[Hyena]

Oh well looks like it would have been a prefect opportunity for poor Bobby Duncan..

 

[rurikbird]

I expect a massive “fuck you FA” squad in the CC, no player over 18 to participate.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

What about the subs?

The rest of the squad and whatever we have from the u23 team.

 

[SummerOnions]

Hard for them if they get dicked 15-0 though innit

 

[dee]

After we beat the usual no hopers in the SF we will be playing River Plate or Flamengoes

 

[6TimesaRed]

What about the subs?

Shaq and Matip will be back..

Curtis Jones, and a few of the ressies

 

[keniget]

It’s a shame because the last tie against Arsenal was great and we are being forced to put out a team that will render it meaningless.

 

[Dreambeliever]

Play a semi strong side in both then fly out the first teamers to make the final.

15 games in 58 days is nuts.

I can’t see us sustaining our title push with that many games.

We are going to need all the luck in the world and we have to beat City on Sunday.

Hopefully Napoli draw tonight, we beat them next week then we can send kids for the last meaningless game.

 

[Mors]

An EFL statement said Liverpool had committed to "fielding a team that is largely consistent with those that have participated in earlier rounds of this season's competition" at Villa Park.
EFL football services director Dave Cookson said: "In these exceptional circumstances the decision was taken having received clear assurances from the club that there will be a level of consistency in team selection, a feature which is key to ensuring integrity is maintained."

Get right fucked! You can have our under 18's and that's the end of it.

 

[binomial]

So how many players will travel to Qatar? like 12? The same team will have to play both games???

Bit of a shambles

Team v Villa - Adrian Williams Lovren Gomez Larouchi Lallana Milner Keita Elliott Shaqiri Brewster

 

[Markeh]

Honestly does anyone give a flying fuck about the club World Cup? It's exhibition, no prestige nonsense. I’d rather try to win the Thai energy drink cup.

 

[Hyena]

"largely consistent"

I hope we play
Kelleher
Williams Gomez Lovren Larouchi
Chirivella Curtis Christie-Davies
Elliot Brewster Longstaff

Or something like that. Everyone else goes to Dubai or rests. Those in bold all have first team experience and are consistent with previous rounds. I couldn't care if we lost 6-0 but hopefully it is 6-6 and we win on penalties eventually.

Considering its the only trophy the club have yet to win and it comes with the bragging rights of being the "best club in the world" course I want us to win it.

Also we are pretty fortunate it's not being played in Japan like it used to in the past

 

[tombrown]

They were chatting about this on BT last night - theres a 23 man squad for the World thingie, with 12 subs. So they could play with just 6 subs in the first game, and leave 6 strong players for the Villa match, and bring them over for the final

I’m sad that it’s not played in Japan like they used to... could have had a couple of good nights out.

Just to clarify I'm not saying there's anything wrong with Japan. Far from it. I just meant if the club world cup game was being played there it'd be an even bigger conundrum given its further away than Qatar

I know I know. Wasn’t offended or anything!

 

[737Max]

No worries, just felt obliged to explain.

Adrian
Shaqiri
Brewster
Milner (He is absolutely needed, his experience is pivotal for the kids)
Gomez
Hoever

My Guess

Send Kehller to Qatar

Lonaghan on the bench against villa

 

[LeTallecWiz]

We should bring back Stevie, Hyypia and Xabi for this.
They'll all play for free - and it will make the game fun.
ANd of course, LUis Garcia too.

 

[Modo]

If we're talking ex players there's only one I'd bring and it's Kuyt. He seems like the only one seriously fit enough to play well.

 

[tombrown]

And Lucas

 

[Insignificance]

It's Lazar time!!

 

[Nir.Barak]

Personally I'd send Mane home to Senegal and tell him to chil for 12 days and get him fresh for the rest of the season.
Best player in the world right now and have been playing with no break for far too long, he'd obviously go to that shit CWC and probably wants to, but he really shouldn't.
