Team v Norwich

We've just had two weeks off and will have a 6 day break in between Atletico and West Ham so I see no reason to play the strongest team in both games.

I think the only change between the two line ups is that we will see Ox playing in the midfield 3 against Norwich but he will be replaced by Fabinho for the Atletico match.

no reason not*

hes not going to put out a subs bench team vs norwich

Full team, dust off any rustiness, clear out the cobwebs, if indeed we can become rusty and cobwebby in 2 weeks, and be top of our game for Atletico

Full strength both games.

Norwich aren't gonna kick us to try and get a result.

they've just had a rest.

IMO the team for norwich needs to be a strong one just to "get back in rhythm" just as others above have said.

Full team...cmon the players have had weeks of ffs. Hardly a big ask.

I'd play Vs Norwich

...................Alisson..........
TAA.....Gomez...VVD...Robertson
........Hendo...Fabinho...Wijnal.....
......Salah.......Firmino......Mane...

Make subs after 65mins ish....that's what I'd do anyway.

this can be considered a warm up game. the timing has been ideal for us as it's an evening kick off so we can be having training all week later in the day and be lined up to go to madrid and be flying.

no disrespect to norwich that, it's just the ideal kick off time.

we need to get the players back in action and knock the cobwebs off our game here. a week shgging and snorting isnt ideal prep for any cl tie
