A strong side, but fuck me, there is no invention in it. McGinn again, 2 up front again, Bailey and Buendia dropped. Sanson is clearly dead. And Ashley Young starts. Like that was really needed

Luiz and Kamara as a double pivot maybe?
I suspect that’s just wishful thinking

I'm happy that Konsa isn't starting. Wouldn't have ever written that 2 years ago. Surprised Olsen isn't in goal.

Well, he wasn't lying about giving it a good go in the cups.

Not with two up front unless he's just come up with 4222 in the last 48 hours.

wow.. I was expecting to see more fringe players. Looking to build chemistry/consistency or afraid to lose?
Hope we see Archer and Tim.

If that team loses they should walk home and Gerrard should stay there.

If all goes to plan tonight, I reckon if you swap Cash back in for Young you'll have your starting lineup for Sunday.

Pretty strong, would rather have seen Archer. Feel a bit sorry for the Swedes they must be thinking they'll never get a chance.

That will be the starting XI with the exception of Cash returning to replace Young.

No idea why he’s playing Young or McGinn. Would have liked to have seen Archer up front.
