I have a bad feeling about this game.

Yup. Think we'll get tonked
Even in that game where we slaughtered them, we were under the kosh for the first 15 or 20 minutes. This is never an easy fixture.
Ironically I have a good feeling about this game.
We usually play better against teams like Southampton than we do against West Brom /Watford types.
Top 4 just at the end of last game will do...
Koeman has gone to 3 CBs since we ruined them, and they've been extremely hard to beat. I'd like to see us play two strikers today, but I don't see it happening.
We'll fuck these today. No top 4 though.
Flanagan will captain Liverpool FC today

Jon Flanagan has been handed the honour of captaining Liverpool in their Premier League clash with Southampton at St Mary's.
The full-back will lead the Reds out for the first time - some two days after penning a new three-year contract with his boyhood club.
Flanagan takes the armband from skipper Jordan Henderson, who misses out against Saints due to illness.
Vice-captain James Milner is also sidelined as he serves a one-match suspension.
It promises to be a proud afternoon for Academy graduate Flanagan, who returns to the side after being ineligible for the Europa League showdown with Manchester United.

Flanagan returned to action in January after a nightmare 18-month battle with a knee injury.
He becomes the record eight player to captain Liverpool this season.
Joe Allen became the seventh to wear the armband against West Ham in the FA Cup.
Captain Jordan Henderson and vice-captain James Milner have also been joined by Kolo Toure for the Capital One Cup tie against Bournemouth, Lucas for the Crystal Palace vist to Anfield in November and Southampton in the Capital One Cup, while Christian Benteke wore the armband at Exeter, with Jose Enrique eading the team out for the replay.

No Milner, Henderson, Firmino or Moreno
Oh Jesus, this could be a fucking horror show.
----------------Mignolet--------
Clyne----Lovren------Sakho------Flanno
-----Lallana-----Allen--------Can
-----Coutinho---Benteke------Sturridge
Klopp will probably play Origi, but he shouldn't

I hope he takes the responsibility on board and hospitalises a few of their players.
