Then he is dead to you.

.....We haven't got the players for it anyway. Even with Benta & Biss fit.

We have 1 good CB , so a system requiring 3 is stupid. We have possibly Porro who might be a good WB and , so a system requiring 2 is stupid too. We definitely dont have the players for a 343/523 that we play. The leicester match also showed just how important Lloris has been. The shitness of Dier , Davies, Perisic became even more glaringly obvious in Lloris' absence.

 

[5purs]

We had a full squad for what? 3 days? Now Lloris, Sessegnon,Bentancur, Bissouma are all out injured! F*** Me then!

 

[El flaco]

Milan in diabolical form, their managers job on the line, their big name players underperforming and devoid of confidence.
Dr Tottenham will see you now

 

[Frankfurter]

A draw in the first leg, we will beat them at home

 

[docomospur]

Here’s my cunning plan: Bring on Chirpy and Lily in midfield. What do you think?

Sticking with 2 in centre midfield, I don’t know man

 

[StuG]

Couple of months from the way he was holding his knee I would think.

The tears weren't a good sign either

it's time to play with sanchez-romero-davies.
I can't watch another match with dier, I have no strength for that

 

[Fattynomates]

Let’s hope there isn’t any kind of hostile atmosphere at there ground or the players will just shit themselves and bottle it

It's amazing how many years Liverpool went without any longer-term injuries to their best players.

Anything that keeps Dier away is progress.

I'm not expecting him to play again this season.

Think he's done.

Nothing funny about it FFS.

Dier, Davies, Son and Kulu will all start.

We will labour in build up with Emerson/Skipp/Sarr and nothing getting to our forwards.

0-0 at HT.

55 mins: Leao puts Milan 1 up

74 min: Double sub - Porro for Emerson and Rich for Kulu

86 min: Danjuma for Son

FT: 1-0 Milan

 

[Richard Arlison]

Actually expect us to get a result in this game.

This team is well set up for Champions League.

Dier, Davies etc all starting, laboured build up + the subs/timings are spot on.

1-0 not sure on!

Our first XI yes but no Bentancur/Hojbjerg is a killer. Skipp/Sarr is not a CL-level midfield.

Also depends massively on what versions of Son and Kulu show up.

At least with Romero back we will have someone with a pair of bollocks in defence.

 

[Starks]

Got a Giroud goal written all over it.

Milan would be more than happy to have Sarr or Skipp in their team.

Tbh, I'm excited to see them partner up, they are the future of the club.

Absolutely dreading this. Might work on my diet plan instead. At the moment it consists of replacing my 6 piece Family bucket with a 4 piece box. Small steps.
