      “threeps, I was just outlining Liverpool’s alternatives. I still think they could have left a number of Senior squad players behind like and still beaten Monterrey comfortably with what will be their first team anyway.

      The choice Liverpool made was probably the right choice for Liverpool firstly there will be 3 very strong sides they would have drawn in the Semi Finals of the League Cup so nothing was guaranteed and understandably Liverpool want to win the World Club Championship as they haven’t won it before and it will get a lot more difficult to win from next Season under the new rules.”

      Nine think you posted on the wrong thread so I will answer here.

      Yes they could of done that but it would jeopardise the WCC. There’s no real way to define how good or not Monterrey are but to give an indication Transfermarkt values their squad at 84m, pretty much the same as WBA. So could a WBA quality team give LFC a difficult game, baring in mind they are more acclimatized having been out there a week already? I would think so, although Liverpool are rightfully strong favorites.

        threeps, ha, ha, I did it from my phone there’s always a chance of a mishap there.?

        All three alternatives weren’t quite right and I am understand Liverpool’s focus on the WCC they have never won it and it will be more difficult to win from next season.

        As I said I think Liverpool will stroll past Monterrey and into the Final but they still probably took the right decision another game for the first team squad post Christmas followed probably by another two games and a difficult two legged Semi Final would have been unhelpful to Liverpool as they chase down the title.

            Serious Questions for Pool fans, if you dont win the WCC for some reason would you be pissed off that you also are out of the Carabao? or would it make no odds, if you get the worse luck at the worse time, this competition (even if you win it) could de rail more than just the league cup…..but i suppose thats what winning does and other cluybs around Europe have coped….

            i worry if you dont win it though

              Stevo,Flamengo will be more of a challenge for Liverpool in the Final than Monterrey will be imo but I still expect Liverpool to be too good for Flamengo.

                Have to admit, I’m going to be on here like Goosey Lucy on my sisters tomorrow if LiberoOol’s lose to the Taco Boys, but unfortunately, the footballing God’s are never that kind… πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚ πŸ™‚

                  Not really stevo. I’ll be disappointed if we don’t win the wcc. I’m not really bothered about the league cup simply because everything’s is about the league this season.

                  I really want to win the wcc as we have never won it but I really hope it doesn’t disrupt the league. I don’t think we will win it as easily as people think.

                  It’s a tough really mate but all these games means we are doing well

                    17/1 might not be a bad price after seeing liberoools 1st 11

                    Henderson centre back. Milner right full

                      Alisson; Milner, Gomez, Henderson, Robertson; Lallana, Keita, Oxlade-Chamberlain; Shaqiri, Salah, Origi.

                      Looking at that team I think 17/1 are good odds!

                        Or does that team demonstrate the strength of Monterrey?

                        I can’t ever remember any team having odds as long as 17/1 in a two horse race.

                        Be a massive suprise even with the team announced if Liverpool still don’t win this game comfortably but One nil will do them.?

                          Van Dijk is sick. Could be a bug or something. Henderson is supposedly going to be centre-half. Lovren and Matip still out.

                            Just using this thread for the Monterrey game. They remind me surprise surprise of Napoli!

                            I missed the goals thinking kick off was at 6 – doh!!! I was wrapped in my wonderful new Vacuum Cleaner and got my Carpets Hoovered πŸ™‚

                            Team selection’s pretty cool. It is what it is and I hope we wear them down and do enough to get over the line.

                              Liverpool only playing in flashes I think they will need to bring TAA, Firmino and Mane on to ensure the win.

                                2 World Class Saves by Allison who’s really stepped up to Leadership in Van Dijk’s absence.

                                  Gomez had to take a ‘hit’ there. Lucky it’s only a Yellow.

                                    The one bright thing I’d say so far is that at least Keita is looking increasingly settled and positive.

                                      The Monterrey guy are just so resilient, agile and clinical. They’ve really been a Tough Opposition for us Tonight.

                                            This Team is so Manchester United, Late 1990s. They always seem to find a way πŸ˜€
