442 with Isak and Salah on top and Wirtz wide midfield on either flank. Or a 4312 with Wirtz as the ten with a solid midfield 3 behind them. Those are the only way where we might have a formation that doesn't leak goals for fun, if we are to start the both of them. Isak is a different question all together, we need to see more of him when he is fit for real.

Think we should go 442/424 for the foreseeable, plugging the holes that our current set up leaves wide open game after game. Gakpo on the left of midfield and Wirtz on the right. If Salah starts, he should be closer to goal, lacking speed as he does. Perhaps Wirtz could learn to play in this the league if he had a clear position to do so in, not roaming around until he does. Endo should get a game too.

Yeah mate. Persistent injury stuff since April. Not in top form due to that, no proper preseason.

BACH EIN TRACH!

Like carrying an injury for much of the time?

We look more balanced with Wirtz on the right, tonight and when he came on against United. Isak-Eki on top with Wirtz filling in on both midfield and coming roaming in in attack. Shame Frimpong went off thou, they seemed to know how to play with each other. Curtis should keep his place at the weekend, playing better than Macca right now. Szobo's corner are zingy and zaftig. Plenty of whip and power, should take them all from know on.

f***. I had just started enjoying Frimpong and Wirtz on the same flank . Did seem to know each other’s patterns.

Wasn't Pep just ranting something about Rodri feeling his knee and that he could not play? And then starting him anyway? I think it's more annoying that Haaland isn't getting injured for a lengthy period of time, me. (And no, I'm really not wishing an injury on anybody, apart from the dinosaur t*** in the Everton nets. My only hope when any key opponent gets injured is that they take their time getting back.)

Slot said post match that he thought Kerkez was running out of steam having played 90 mins twice before this week. Robbo is a mixed bag nowadays, sadly.

Never mind starting him but bring him on.

Losing hurts but that is madness mate.

Konate had a calf bother so he needed subbing.

Those are all s***e. *shake hands emoji*

Is he still carrying an injury, or only lacking fitness?
