Would you drop James Tarkowski for the Merseyside Derby? 😬

And if so, who are you replacing him with? 🫣

Not now and not next season. As a leader and driver he is too important. In the 2028 season, perhaps, but certainly not now!!

Absolutely. Like I said to someone the other day, it is important his mistake at Brentford is raised as it was poor, but he can't be chopped just because of that

Definitely not. Talisman especially in this type of game. I agree that his form has been average but he'll rise to this occasion. Wouldn't even rule him out of grabbing a late winner 🙏

Another late Tarkowski goal in the derby you say?

No chance of leaving Tarks out, I think his injury has bothered him for the last month or so, but he will try his usual 'wanting to win at all cost' I would take another one of his rocket goals for a winner too!!!

Yeah I don’t see him being dropped unless the injury issue is proving an issue behind the scenes

No chance, we need his aerial ability with VVD and Konate on corners

Absolutely not. While he’s lost a yard or two of pace, I’ve lost count of the number of times he’s got himself into the right position to block a shot, or clear off the line. His presence is required on the pitch….plus aren’t we forgetting his amazing goal at Goodison? Got to play. 🔵💙IYKYH

I'd still have him in for Sunday. He's been brilliant on the whole under Moyes, but his error in the lead-up to Brentford's first will need addressing back at Finch Farm
