My amateur brain suggests 45 minutes probably doesn't make a difference after 5 days recovery already
I tend to agree with those who would have started him and taken off later if necessary

He was poor today mate. Along with Eriksen and Dele. None of them could hold onto the ball when pressed. In previous seasons I have seen hold onto the ball under pressure, come away with it then play a pass. He hasn't played like that this season.

he kept possession well IMO
The issue came when he played it to dele and Erisken...
dele looked lost playing that deep
And Erisken looked lazy as fudge going through the motions again

The details were very tight. He has switched off in the past as he is still getting to grips with that side. IMO.

Agreed. His drive is sensational. But that first bit? Very important too.

I am neither but surely if he is only fit to play 20 minutes it would be better to just leave at him home and get hm fully fit.

it is for a true CM
I still think a 3 man CM can work with him and Le Celso and an other

In the first half he was poor. But he wasn't the reason we lost. Wtf was Rose thinking flying into the full back.

Absolutely and I think it is the plan for MkII. Unfortunately, injuries and other issues mean we likely won’t see that for a while...

What did he do right? [emoji38][emoji38]
To be fair he was disciplined but we had no moments of controlled possession he played a massive part in that as noted when Ndombele came on the difference was evident.
He was far from the worst player on the pitch but no he did not have a good game, or if you think that was a good performance then our expectations are somewhat different.

Not sure if you are talking about positioning but he has done some good things.
I remember him twice robbing mahrez of the ball when he was running at him, when we were under great pressure at city.
He did the same today to either salad or mane.

Gazzaniga, Kane, Ndombele, Sissoko, Son. Anyone else?

To be fair he did sub the worst one for N'Dombele. I am a bit baffled as to why he brought back in any of Eriksen, Alderweireld, Rose or Winks though after Tuesday though?
Bedfordspurs
Vinnie Samways
Again same thing I’ve said a hundred times
your comparing NDombele with Winks
NDombele does not play the same position or role In the team
and I’d didn’t say he had a poor game, he had a solid one IMO
Liverpool’s CM had to keep on playing it to their full backs as they could do nothin* through the middle

Agreed but very different for a whole game against sides like this.
We got lucky in Manchester; could’ve been a Bayern.
I think it is more about total concentration for 95 minutes; that takes time to develop.
Finney Is Back
Luka Modric
Milner has been an excellent player over the years and is still useful now. There were three occasions over the years when we could and should've signed him and didn't.

We only started trying to attack once we went 2-1 down. Had we been more adventurous while actually winning or drawing the game then I think we would've won it.
