Clearly Mo, Thiago and Trent will return. I'd bring Konate back in too. In fact it's going to be the same lineup as in the first leg (though personally I'd rest Robbo).
...................................... Ali
Trent .......... Konate .............. VvD ......... Tsimikas
.................................... Fabs
..................Hendo ..................... Thiago
Mo ........................... Mane ......................... Diaz
We have 5 days to Spurs no need to rest anyone for this. However with 5 subs, and hopefully everything going to plan, I'd bring off Fabs, Thiago, Mane, Mo and Diaz from 60-70 mins and 80 mins for the last change.

It’s going to be the last time we can rest van Dijk. Diaz looked knackered by the end of the Newcastle game and Robbo may need a rest too.

Are you upset you’ve not arranged a trip to Paris and want everyone else to miss out?
Have you canned it up yet? I must admit I haven’t ordered this months batch yet and wouldn’t mind trying it. I’m cheating on you tomorrow with some goose island ipa.
I'd tried telling some mods earlier but no one is listening
Cool. Cheers dude. I was gonna order on Friday but seen you were busy with the beer festival and pubs. Plus I was out Saturday and didn’t wanna miss the delivery.
This game is tomorrow, right?
Nothing to see here folks .......Refreash your browser
Haha I wrote it then scrolled up then edited the title
If we’re knocked out it’s Brizzle’s fault.
Can we edit Thread titles?
Careful.
You will get a "fuck you Momo" from him with that sort of talk.
Not sure if being whooshed but yes, we can.
I’ll threaten him with insubordination. We don’t need this kind of shit being so close to the quad.
No mucking about with the lineup. Our best 11 or nothing. It's the CL semis for pete's sake.
Worry about Spurs later.
One game at a time.
Worry about Spurs later.

I posted in a hurry after receiving WhatsApp based abuse from Woland for being late.
This minor cock up means we will draw, not win. I’ll take that
Win the FA Cup and we’ll have to call it the Fuck You Count Cup for life.
How? I would have done so immediately if I'd known.
There should be a thread tool button in the opening post and you can edit the title from there.

Villarreal manager Unai Emery admits his side need to play the perfect game if they are to shock Liverpool to reach the club’s first Champions League final.
Trailing 2-0 from a one-sided first leg, the former Arsenal boss was reminded their opponents had lost just three of 56 matches in a quadruple-chasing season.
“I didn’t want to hear those details but I did,” he said. “It is a difficult task but we are working on the game.
“We need to play a perfect game. We need to find our excellence in certain things and maybe achieve something no one has achieved, which is this kind of comeback.
“We will try to find some weak spots, something that no one has done this season.”
Liverpool completely dominated the midfield battle at Anfield last week with ThiagoAlcantara, in his best form since joining the club at the start of last season, the man of the match.
Emery accepts they cannot allow that to happen again.
“They played a tremendous game at Liverpool,” he said of the Reds’ midfield.
“Thiago was Man of the Match, Fabinho has been fantastic at Liverpool.
“They are two players who can play really good football but they have the work rate and intensity and they were at a world-class level at Liverpool [last week].
“If the player of the match is again a Liverpool player we will be out for sure but if it is one of ours we can be there.”
There was some positive news for Emery with striker Gerard Moreno, who missed the first leg, back after injury, although they may be missing former Bournemouth winger Arnaut Danjuma who has a foot injury.
“Gerard trained with the rest of the group today,” said the Villarreal boss.
“I don’t know to what extent he will be fit for contention. We will not take any risks.”
