This game shows where we are without VVD Targett Boufal Austin Pied JWP Jay Rod And a transferred Fonte And more i cant be bothered to name: unfortunately you take all the above out our squad then this is our second XI full on.

Men against boys

***** spurs!

So liverpool out, spurs potentially out- and if we knock arsenal out. Then just chelsea, united and city remain! Let's go for a cup double this year sack the league hehe- imagine 17th place with two trophies!

The pressing game might work in Germany where they have 34 league games and a 1 month Winter Break. i forgot to add- liverpool havent even had european football this year. This is brilliant the wheels are truly well and off for them! Hopefully that means another trophyless year for these bast*rds. Maybe we can equal their trophy count over the past 12 years by winning on the 26th!!!

Can we mention Darren Bent's own goal on here too

Hide your wives

Spurs and Liverpool already kinda do do it- it's just there is 4 clubs better than them already here in England Dortmund also poach from smaller clubs in Germany let us not forget, with their last two managers coming from Mainz I think.

Nah my comment was very tongue in cheek! Still would prefer not to pay that £1! Funny if they had just made the membership £26 with no booking fee there'd be no complains lol.

I never understand booking fees. I am doing the booking, they should be paying me!!!

Gutted to have had to give up my ST from this year due to Uni, but even more pis*ed off that away games don't count as a member. My only regret seeing this criteria is not buying a Europa League bundle, especially as away games and last night counts for nothing. Anyways, regardless of what I have written, I am bloody happy that I was able to witness a night like that at Anfield!

So did Glasgow lose £116 too...

Nah I would not mind 3rd round qualifiers that much (ofc I would prefer to be in groups directly), but the excitement of the draw and getting some random team in Europe excites me!

Puel's rotation policy might be useful now. Basically not all of the players never know if they will play or not. So all of them are gonna try and impress so much over the next few weeks! Which means positive results?!?!

Haha that wouldn't be good for my heart

Rather he kept a clean sheet!

Two bits highlighted in bold. So a 'TICK' for reducing rotation from league game to league game, but now it becomes 'Puel's incessant rotation' and 'poor Shane Long' dropped. Classic Glasgow I guess.

Most Serie A players in the past 6 years have flopped in the Premier League too, so not bringing my hopes up: Jovetic, Lamela arguably, Cuadrado, Balotelli, Darmian, not to forget our own Gaston and Osvaldo. These are off the too of my head, only Coutinho in the past 6 years comes to mind as someone who has been great. So yes- i'm gonna be a fickle football fan and rule out a whole league to buy players from!!!

If we win league cup then we will have extra qualifying rounds though right? I see cups as only way of Europe next year.

Anything to fit the agenda

I think many have underestimated the impact of no Boufal and Austin atm, not to mention the apparent rumours that 'Fonte's head wasn't in it'. Imagine us trying to navigate the second half of last season without Pelle, Mane and a disinterested Fonte- I doubt we will have finished sixth. Only query for me is ofc Long and Tadic don't seem to be playing as well last season, as well the style of play, but Tadic particularly I have expected more from given his 'hate for Koeman'. Hopefully them two can pick up. Hopefully today can be the push that we need, and maybe signal to Reed we do need some reinforcements potentially.

#PrayForVVD I've convinced my boss to give me time off work- driving up from Kent missing Thursday and half of Wednesday. Thankfully I have my cousin in Liverpool where I can stay and I think I'll cook myself some food beforehand to save some money too. Saints please do me some good and make this worthwhile!!!

Dont think that was offside- looked like his arm was off but i thought it was only active parts you can use to play ball with that has to be in? Oh well rather we score some more haha on wednesday.

Prepare for abuse from Pamplemousse.

Woah slow down there- I remember some saying Fonte wasn't good enough for the Premier League back in 2012-13.
