Zinedine Zidane has improved on his likeability.

Agreed, it is very interesting to say the least. Their group is one from hell though, to be fair. On our current Champions League form I don’t know if you would manage to go through it at all. I actually think we might not have.

NOt sure many people would have picked both Real and Inter to get knocked out of that group, but there is now a very real chance of it.

I expect one will, if I’m honest.
Real plays BM, so could still win the group. BM wins that group with a win, or a draw with a Shakhtar draw, or even a non-outrageous Inter win against Shakhtar.
Shakhtar has terrible goal difference, so needs a win to ensure qualification. A draw and a BM-Madrid draw leaves them out.
Inter needs a win versus Shakhtar.
That is going to be the fun groupo to watch on the last match day

I hope Edwards is keeping tabs on those young brasilians at Shakhtar

Goalkeepers: Alisson, Adrian, Kelleher, Jaros*
Defenders: Gomez, Matip, R.Williams*, Alexander-Arnold, Robertson, Tsimikas, N.Williams*, Larouci*
Midfielders: Thiago, Fabinho, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Keita, Jones*, Milner, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Cain*, Clarkson*, Dixon-Bonner*
Forwards: Salah, Mane, Firmino, Jota, Minamino, Origi, Shaqiri, Glatzel*, Longstaff*, Millar*, Stewart*
This is our CL squad. Is it possible to replace players from List B when they’re injured? For example Glatzel is out for a longer time again.
If not we would even struggle to name a ‚second team‘ against Midyetland next week because Rhys, Fabinho and Matip are our only CBs for the CL.

I’m sure Kopstar will be in to correct me but I think you can register players from the B list up until the day of the game. They have to be u21 and have been at the club for 2 years. So yeah, we should be able to put out a full second squad if Klopp wants.
I’d expect to see some of Bradley (RB), Norris (LB), Sepp, Clayton (CB/DM), Morton (CM) in there too.

If so, 4 days until Wolves and then a full week before Fulham, it will do the lads a ton of good.

Exactly.
Another question:
Can Uefa ‚force’ us to name a specific number of List A players on matchday squad or starting11?
Wouldn’t surprise me if there is such a thing to not ‚disrespect’ the competition.

Pretty sure Koumetio was on the bench in one of our last CL games before last night.

Can’t you name about 9 subs, just put them on the bench and don’t use them, I assume if the likes of Keita are fit they will be on the bench, in fact anyone returning from injury might be of use to give them some game time, thinking probably Keita, Shaq and the Ox, also Minimino and Origi I’d probably give game time too.
I wouldn’t play or have near the team anyone who started last night, probably play Rhys Williams mind.

From senior players Minamino, Tsimikas, Origi, and Adrian should be definitely in for this one in my opinion. Yeah, agree the rest depending if they need game time can be considered as well.

Agree and give the rest of the senior players 3 days off.

Surprised that Leipzig did not shut up shop after leading 3-1. 2 fantastic goals from Istanbul to bring it back to 3-3.
RB just got a goal in stoppage time. 4-3
