Not a rumour, more if an observation.
For the first time in a very, very long time we could field a match day team 1-11.
1. Alison
2. Gomez
3. Fabinho
4. VVD
5. Konate
6. Thiago
7. Diaz
8. Sobbo
9. Nunez (maybe)
10. Mac A
11. Salah

Would be interested to know the last time that happened, back in league 1 no doubt.

I'm not sure when the last time Liverpool did it but Burnley had a 1-11 line up against Liverpool in August 2021.

No room for Trent, interesting.

Sorry I completely misunderstood your point.

Personally I would love to see an upgrade on Fabinho and Thiago certain won’t stay fit but it is certainly good an improved squad?.

Last time we lined up against United we used the 7-0 lineup.

I think the Fabs upgrade will happen with Baj, but I think we have a season to a season and a half where Fabs won’t quite be up to the levels we want and Baj won’t be quite ready. In my opinion that and our reliance on VVD as basically our only LCB, especially given we are using the inverted fb system, are our potential major issues now.

MSG I think you'll find Burnley played 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 6, 9.

They are squad numbers. 1-11.

please tell me we aren't calling him Sobbo.

I'm going with "Slayer" myself. Szobo is too close to Bozo for comfort.

Skezza, my thoughts exactly! his names actually easy to spell. Just break it down. Remember obo and lai, then just throw Sz in there twice.

Sz - obo - Sz - lai

Or worst case go with Dom ?.

and for pronounciaton go with so-boss-lie. How long before Paul Merson butchers the name?

Big bad Dom.

The emphasis is on the first O not the second. Imagine how you say, "pottery" then substitute for szoboszlai. So, SOH (bozlai) . Not difficult.
