markjazzbassist Posted August 12, 2017 Report Share Posted August 12, 2017 It would be nice to win this by a couple goals and a clean sheet. The two league matches sandwiched in between of City and Chelsea both away I would play for draws and go all out for the Europa matches.

Keith B Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 I would hope that we could rest Keane, Schneiderlin and Rooney and still win this. The City game will need them at 100%. Will be on Koeman to ensure guys are fresh. I hope he can do it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bailey Posted August 13, 2017 Report Share Posted August 13, 2017 I don't think centre backs need rest, especially at his age. We have optionsome for the other two but I think Keane needs to stay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aaron Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 Why rest players 3 games into the season? I'd get later in the season but now? nah. Full strength. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Full strength. not thinking rest wise, thinking rotation to keep everyone happy. these 4 matches in 11 days kinda situations are always tough, i hope Koeman speaks about how he views them in the presser to see what he's thinking.

SpartyBlue Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 The game vs Split is far far more important to what we want to accomplish this season than Man City. We should certainly be playing our strongest possible team for that one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye good point, BT defo have rights to show Europa, maybe not them all, maybe group stage on wards.

They're allowed to "sub-licence" if they want, which must be what happened because BT definitely have sole rights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
London Blue Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 Team I would like to see: Pickford, Holgate, Keane, Williams Coco, Schnielderlin, Davies, Klaassen Lookman, DCL, Sandro Save Rooney, Mirallas and Gana for City game.

Agree with that but Rooney in for Lookman. I'd imagine were going to have to break these lot down,plus I want Rooney to play as much as possible. He's 31 not 41 I'm sure he can do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's 31 not 41 I'm sure he can do it Lookman needs game time tho, and I know hes only 31 but he has played every pre season game, and qualifier. He can always come on as a sub if needed.

Peter H Posted August 14, 2017 Report Share Posted August 14, 2017 Play players with something to prove. Mirallas, Barry, Holgate, Davies (not that he needs to prove anything but im fairly certain that Gana, Morgan and Klaassen are ahead of him in the pecking order), Lookman. Mix them up with quality that needs game time. Rooney, Jags, Williams, Baines, Pickford. My starting 11: Pickford Holgate, Williams, Jags, Baines Barry, Davies, Gana Lookman, Rooney, Mirallas Aidan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aaron Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 (edited) I honestly wouldn't piss about in this game, Split are a decent enough team, we need to take at least a 2 goal lead to their place, Rooney would be starting for me, Sandro benched until the second half to use his pace to stretch their defence. Pickford Keane Jags Williams Holgate Morgs Gana Baines Klassan Rooney DCL Got my lad with me for this game so hopefully its better than his first game, FA cup last season at home to Leicester....

Aidan Posted August 15, 2017 Report Share Posted August 15, 2017 Fist game of the season as I couldn't get to the Stoke game. Found out today I'm finishing early tomorrow so straight from Pompey to Merseyside! Even managed to get my seat, although my Mrs was taken.

Yeah really want to see the tie effectively finished here with a truckload of goals. Goals conceded or a 1-0 win for us heaps pressure on the 2nd leg. Couple of bench players from last week starting, but the core should remain.
