    I hate Wilson.. Last year I bought him the week after the Chelsea brace and he didn't score for like 10 weeks. And now he's been killing me all season and the week I finally buckle and get him for Arnie he gets injured. Honestly I can't stand his face I'm fuming. I have the worst luck

        Son - could be due a rest with barca but in form
        Sane - mahrez and sterling could be preferred as more defensive, although pep could opt for sterling to lead the line which would mean all 3 start
        Alonso - been in poor form and sarri mentioned Emerson in presser. Although he also said he preferred alonso for his height at set pieces

        Yeah seems to have an important creative role in your side.

        I got him in because I planned to dump Salah but still wanted a Liverpool attacker. I think he's great value and is slowly cementing his place in this team.

        Brings good energy and urgency to your 11.

        I think so yes. His creative numbers are good and I think Liverpool need that this season.

        He can go missing at times in the past so anything can happen but I think it's his place to lose and he seems to be playing with confidence at the moment.

      Did the same-good chance of Kane points so an Auba hatful will have limited pain whereas a 1 point cameo if he is rested could hurt. I think with all the rotation you need to go with someone who is seemingly more nailed.

      No way Trent comes on again before 30 mins, the chances of that have to be ridiculously low.

        Everyone should know it's coming in December. More injuries, more rotations. It's part of the game and people need to accept it and rise to the challenge
