This would be the team I expect to play

Pickford
Coleman Keane Holgate Digne
Sidibe Sigurdsson Gomes Bernard
Calvert-Lewin Richarlison

Subs
Stekelenburg Martina Baines Branthwaite Baningime Davies Gordon Iwobi Kean

Personally I would start with Davies instead of Sigurdsson but I cant see Ancelotti going that way. This is based on Mina, Delph, Gbamin, Schneiderlin and Walcott being unavailable. Any more injuries and we really will struggle.

....they are superior to us all over the pitch and i can’t see anything but a comfortable win for the Reds, especially behind closed doors. Interesting to see if Ancelotti can at least make us tactically competitive.

I got no real buzz re this football coming back. Professional Football without fans really dulls it for me. Will watch this training session with little interest. Novelty of it will wear off quickly.

Hope we do well of course. But their work rate is much higher than ours. Their intensity from the off will be the usual and our usual sleepy heads will only start playing when liverpool get tired last 15 mins when they are 3 nil up. We will then nick 1. Usual story I'm afraid.

Ps would love to see a couple of crunching tackles. But I dont know if our crows can muster that. Anyway let's hope they can. Mon ye blues.

I can't shake this optimism that Ancelotti has had a mini pre-season with them and has hopefully managed to get in their heads.

It will of course be ruined after 15 mins of the derby. It's the hope that kills you.

Agree with you: maybe throw Gordon in or Kean with Richarlison out wide, but it is clear Richarlison is at his best through the middle. God forbid Sigurddson and Gomes in the middle got to be Davies

Carlo plays 4-4-2 so no chance what you are suggesting

Well they’ve beat us in every creative way imaginable.over the last few years. Time for them to check off an empty stadium victory.

It won’t be prity in here if Arsenal beat City. No sirry Bob.

 

[navidson]

Do we know if that lot have managed to receive a batch of 'Jurgen Juice' during the lockdown?

If not then we've got a chance

 

[jimmythenut]

Having the 5 subs option could help us out. Hopefully Ancelloti can use this to our advantage somehow!

(make 5 half time subs if we're getting battered)

Any word on if we’ve had / due to play a friendly yet?
