Mane has been done twice. You'd assume he'd have put more measures in place after the first time but clearly they've not been put off. Poor bloke will have to deal with all the st again.
I did see some behind the scenes thing where he had a live in chef. Perhaps he doesn't anymore - but either way, being burgled is horrible. No doubt he just rings a "player liaison" bod at the club and they deal with everything.

Is there a case for a VVD + Fab centre back pairing?

Matip looks OK next to VVD but if Fab doesn't start in MF its an interesting question (actually posed by a Utd work colleague today)

You'd say after midweek, its a useful option - but we don't see what goes on in training. Matip should be above Fab for that spot though - unless they're going to do something weird like go 3 at the back halfway through the game and have Fab push up a bit.

As much as Matip is pretty average I think I'd have him as CB over Fab.

Still don't know what our strongest midfield is.

I don't think Utd have anything to lose by coming out all blazing on Sunday (well aside from the game) and I think they will. Hopefully we will go with all out attack, as we would consider ours t be more potent. Shoot out !!

Currently it's Henderson, Gini and Fab.

If Ox came back 100% I'd swap Henderson for him.

Ok. They're completely different players so what changes would you also make to our system and tactics?

Fabinho in the holding role. Doing the donkey work but with a better eye for a pass.

Not 100% convinced though.

When we played city in January, fab came on and we played a 3 man midfield with him, Henderson & Gini, we scored soon after but ultimately lost the game.

We rarely play all 3 due to injury/tactics, but I don't think we can look stronger than with those 3 in midfield.

Against weaker teams/at home we can drop one (probably Hendo even though he's been playing well) and play shaq a bit further forward instead and cause more problems too.

With the return of Ox, i'd just play him as center mid, with the other two holding, let the opposition worry about his driving runs and shots from distance, we've really missed that this season.

All imo of course smile

And Poch losing the plot at the end as well.

With Burnley being the most horrible team in the league it really couldn't be any more amusing.

Let's see if the Spurs lot call him disgraceful with the same vigour as they called out Klopp after West Ham!

Of course they won't. There isn't a bigger bunch of hypocrites on the whole of the tinterweb.

It's ok guys, Poch and Mike Dean were just discussing Liverpool's points deduction that the city and spurs fans suggested a week or so ago regarding Klopp's behaviour.

Tottenham still haven't drawn a game. Is this some sort of record?

Of course not, he’s a “dreamboat” from who’s arse the sun doth shine. Whereas Klopp is a swivel-eyed loon. Some pretty outrageous scenes at the end there, most odd - pressure got to him maybe
