Personally I would have excluded Cuadrado and Rugani...
Does this also mean we can expect more playing time for Ramsey?

Nah. Cuads can literally play all positions on the right. Great utility player to have for the CL.

Mandzu over Bentancur then? Don't know how many midfielders we have and if we're too short there though

We have to see Sarri's rotations but I have a feeling he might favour only Bentancur as vice-Pjanic even though you would think it could be Rabiot.

Yes, true, that’s probably why he is on there. However Caudrado is quite one dimensional and I think Can could do the same (or better job) at RB and RM.

 

[Alen]

Perhaps we plan to sell them in January and this way we're making them available for a CL team for the knockouts. At least for Mandzukic this could be the case.

Didn't they change that rule after Coutinho went to Barcelona?

This rule has been changed. Same player can now play for two teams in CL/EL in a single season.

Mandzukic excluded from CL list

How we gonna win that shit without him tho?

 

[Buck Fuddy]

Can and Mandzukic are excluded from CL list

I was wondering though: do other teams have to cut established players as well? Or is it really just Juve?

What, how is a limited DM gonna be better winger then an actual winger? And Can has less experience as a fullback, Cuadrado started out his career as an RB.


I'm very much glad they didnt exclude Cuadrado. Only feel sorry for Mandzukic. Has been heavy rotation or starter for few years, then go to being cut, because the club couldn't plan to fullfill the CL requirements.

 

[Marc]

Cuadrado is more dynamic than Berna.

I can't think of a more poetic way to knock us out that is if we make it this far.

 

[Orgut]

I hope we re-introduce Mandzukic as we dont have many options in attack and we will need him as an option in the latter stages...
Can - Lets hope we sell him - We really dont need him...

Most teams don't have the depth we have. Look at Barca, look at Bayern, look at Liverpool. The step down from their starting 11 plus 2-3 subs down to the rest of their bench isn't at our level.

That being said, we have a massive amount of decently good players who clog our whole roster. On a 23 man roster for Bayern or Barca, the last 3-4 dudes are younger players. The last 2-3 dudes on our squad are guys making 2-3m wages.

And yet Liverpool won the Champions League, and have been to two finals in a row.

Perhaps the word you’re looking for is ‘bloat’ and not depth.

Oh, I totally agree. They forgo the bloat because instead of paying 23 players 2-5m wages, they pay 3-4 players 10m wages. Something we should be focusing on.

One injury to a liverpool front 3 and they are fucked, Origi is garbage regardless of the goals he scored
The Goals should be City, there reserve squad could come second in Serie A, fair enough they have failed in the CL but thats down to the bald fraud, sadly not many teams have the financial ability to do what City does in regards to depth

They played without 2 of them in that 4-0 win against Barca. I that's getting fucked I hope we get fucked pretty hard.

Yeah but a game like that happens once in a life-time.

Liverpool’s force is their team. Klopp has build a perfect team.
