We could go

LLoris
Trippier Alder Sanchez Rose
Dier Winks
Moura Lamela Son
Kane

But I'd probably prefer Dropping Dier back, putting Wanyama in and dropping Son.

Would think that it'll be a back three with Trippier and Rose as wing backs, but the rest of the setup seems hard to predict.

We're generally not a possession side as long as Eriksen isn't playing, and I would think that Sissoko and/or Lamela would come in for Moura and/or Son to try and make us look like a team with a midfield as opposed to the 5-2-3-ish stuff we did against Huddersfield. Would be neat with some genuine pace though.

Hard to predict this one.

With the injuries we have I cannot see us getting a positive result here. I hope I'm wrong obviously but I wouldn't be surprised to see a 4 or 5 nil loss.
Nah. We will still put out a decent team. Wouldn’t be surprised if we lost, but they’re not on great form, so a shellacking is unlikely I think.
You do have to wonder about these injuries. Liverpool, for instance, only very, very rarely have an injury to a key player, and most of our domestic rivals are generally largely untroubled by injuries to key players. For us to have six out for a vital game suggests something is wrong somewhere.

With so many injuries looks like Foyth , Llorente and Walker Peters will all be on subs bench with hardly any game time between them, not promising.

We just can’t be scared and let the fact we are playing Barcelona affect us. This is exactly the kind of game I want Dele playing in though because his don’t give a fuck who you are attitude is exactly what we need flowing throughout the team tomorrow. Shame he’s missing.

Lots of injuries but it gives others a chance to step up. If you can’t be motivated to put on a massive performance as a player against Barcelona at Wembley, then you probably shouldn’t be a footballer at all.

If we go 4-2-3-1 we're a bigger threat on the counter but we'll have fuck all on the bench tomorrow!

Lloris
Tripps Sanchez Toby Rose
Wanyama Winks
Lucas Lamela Son
Kane

Gazzaniga, Dier, Sissoko, Llorente, Davies, KWP, Skipp

Not interested in seeing three in CM ever again, our worst performances have been in that shape this year.

I like this but maybe Moura, he's had a quiet few games and I've convinced myself this is the game he comes out big again in.

I know Winks is a busy player but to start and be on the bench - what a guy!!

Foyth isn't available for the CL. Skipp on the bench is possible
Oh yes , forgot about Foyth, any more injuries and we are really struggling.
To face Barca you need a full strength team , maybe not resting some of the older ones against Huddersfield was an error , by that I mean Jan and Moussa.
