Fecking love the derby, even as a wool it still get's me so excited.
Thought's on the selections from both sides, Mike Dean as Ref???
Don't want the usual arguments on this thread, so tagging Everton in to get their opinion.
Any news on Matip and Studge and if they will make it?
Blues what do you think your 11 will be?
I'd imagine if Matip is out we play the same 11 as v Boro.
So come on it's Xmas week, let's try keep this civil

I would start him. We need that derby day physical presence.

Would you drop Wij Kash?
I've been more impressed by Wij so far this season.

Wij gives you that pace and is a better passer but Can for me has that x-factor. He also has the extra physical presence.

I think the bigger question will be who starts at CB. Will Lovren come back in or will Klavan partner Matip. I'd go for Lovren personally as it's too big a game for Klavan early in his LFC career.
I think we've looked better when we've had Wij and Henderson in the two CM positions ahead of Mane, Lallana Firmino and Origi.

Gini has done very well for me, under pressure he is probably the best player in the team to play quick short accurate passes. Aggressive in the tackle too.
Only disappointment for me has been when he has been when got in the penalty area- hasn't been anywhere near as clinical as he showed he can be at Newcastle. Fortunately it hasn't mattered given out attacking talent.
Can seems to have stepped up a level this season and is a great option to have too, scored some lovely goals. Quite often struggles in his first game back from injury though so expect he will be on the bench tonight (if fit) then start at Stoke.

With Mane, Firms and Lalaa. Would we be better playing with 13?

Klavan has hardly put a foot wrong. Lovren on the other hand where do you start
Who do you think will handle Lukaku power better?

I read earlier that Matip is a doubt so it might be both Klavan and Lovren.

I just hope Barry is nowhere near the starting XI
