Got feeling El Ghazi will start on the left.

Pack rest of side with midfielders as can't be leaving CM area wide open v this lot as that's asking for trouble and Gerrard been very smart with that so far.

Don’t be daft. The club will have said stay safe.  Or a big fine.

Any news on postponement? Kids finishing off their McDs at Star City so it will save us a walk if we knew😄

Ffs mcginns out

[PaulTheVillan]

Let’s hope we don’t need anything from that bench

[Risso]

All things considered that’s not too bad.

[TelfordVilla]

I will say this now. I don't like Watkins and ings starting together. I would rather have JPB starting wide with ollie up the middle.
