He should keep his place for this game - Walcott, pretty much their weakness is exactly what he's best at, angled runs into the space between fullback and cb

It's pretty true. We should really sit back and get these guys on the counter. They are dangerous in attack on the counter press, but even our center backs can play the ball well and quickly. But to attack them without proper support plays right into their hands. It'll be interesting to see how aggressive Silva is with getting our FBs forward. We just can't be turning it over when we are attacking.
 
Just want us to perform at the level we have been away from home all season. If we get outclassed then fine. I just don’t want us turning up looking like a pub team who have never played together as we have too many times. They’ve struggled past some of the worst teams in the league at Anfield this season. Absolutely no reason why we can’t cause them problems. Just need to not give them the free gifts of penalties or set pieces. Make them actually have to earn it for a change.
 
Forgot they had PSG this week. If we can just stay int he take then no reason we can’t get something. Just need to make sure we don’t gift it to them in the first half.

Two things have caused them problems, dudes who've pressed them.high, both arsenal and Leicester did that, don't give vvd time to stroll out with the ball effectively as he's a better passer than their midfielders. And pace down the channels. We have both.
Think we're currently covering the list distance and pressing amongst the best in the league, with them playing midweek, we can outwork them significantly then it'll come down to being able to take the chances early when we get them.

Can't be missing chances like we have been the past 5-6 games
 

I've put myself true all that torture I may swell see it through I'd kick myself if I miss the first win of the century after all the pain.
 
My only possible 2 changes would be to stick Richarlison on the left and Tosun up top to rough them up a bit at the back, also Lookman in for Walcott.
