Liverpool vs FC Midtjylland CL - Tues 7:45

[Dreambeliever]

Should be a cake walk. Rest anyone with a niggle and give the fringe players a game.

 

[Bradley]

We thought the same against Villa.

With the 5 subs we can afford to start with a strong team and make changes once we have a buffer.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

Same central defense pairing ... would give robbo a rest.
Start minamino ahead of bobby.
Curtis Jones and milner can start in middle too

 

[Fabio]

When is Kostas fit?

No one seems remotely arsed that he's been out for over a month

 

[Atlas]

What's happened to Alex Ox?
Is he properly injured again?

 

[Frogfish]

The accumulation of games is the issue, not playing again within 72 hrs but playing 12 games within a month. We must use our whole squad and not just play full strength and rotate subs in. However Klopp will want to notch a second win to enable us to establish some security within the group.

Experience in defence. A strong midfield that Thiago should dominate and enough up front to score a couple or so. They lost 4-0 at home to Atalanta in their first match.

Win 2/3 - 0


.................................... Becker

N. Williams ........ Matip ......... R. Williams ........... Milner

.................................... Thiago

......................... Keita................ Jones


..........Shaqiri ................ Origi ...................Minamino


Should be more than strong enough. Fill the bench with first teamers to use if and as required.

 

[Fabio]

Origi up top or not at all for me

Jota and Shaq wide, taki up top

 

[Hansern]

Alisson

Williams Fabinho Gomez Robbo

Keita Thiago Jones

Shaqiri Taki Jota

Milner on for Robbo after 45
Gini on for Thiago after 45-60
Phillips on for Gomez after 60

I forgot he even existed till the other day. Apparently he's getting "closer and closer", whatever that means.

 

[Fabio]

His signing disappeared because it was 1) early and sensible, and 2) drowned out by thiago and jota hype

Plus he's a bit ugly compared to the other 2

 

[tombrown]

He hasn't recovered from Milner telling him to fuck off

 

[RedStar]

I watched the highlights of the Atalanta game, these guys are way out of their depth. A strong team should beat them by several goals. 5 subs allowed in CL

--------------Alisson
Trent--Matip---Gomez-- Neco
---- Gini --- Thiago ---Jones
- Shaq ---- Origi ----- Jota

Subs
Milner -> Trent
Williams -> Matip
Minamino -> Thiago
Firmino -> Origi
Keita -> Jones

 

[SummerOnions]

He hasn't recovered from Milner telling him to fuck off

When did this happen?

 

[SummerOnions]

Alisson

Williams Fabinho Gomez Robbo

Keita Thiago Jones

Shaqiri Taki Jota

Milner on for Robbo after 45
Gini on for Thiago after 45-60
Phillips on for Gomez after 60

Is Matip still injured? I guess Thiago won't be risked either

 

[Hansern]

Not sure, think both were close yesterday. So they could be involved.

 

[Bradley]

When did this happen?

Might have been the first league cup game. He did something that Robbo wouldn't do (can't remember what) and Milner was howlering 'Fuck off' at him from midfield.

[Jack D Rips]

Think Jota had an ice pack on his leg when he came off yesterday. Could be rested.

 

[Modo]

Where's KHL when we need him?

 

[Brizzle]

Not sure I agree with such wholesale changes but a few people with niggles should be rested and the back 4/5 could do with will hopefully be another clean sheet and playing time to gel.

--------------Alisson------------
Trent---Matip--Gomez--Robbo
---------Thiago--Milner--------
-------------Keita---------------- Jones here if Keita not ready to get some minutes
Shaqiri---Minamino--Jota


Could see the arguments for continuing to play Firmino to find form. If Jota got an injury then perhaps there is a case for Divock.

 

[HC]

You just don't play a week team in these games , especially now there's 5 subs in the CL.

Bury them then make 3/4 changes and rest where appropriate but fuck coming away from this with a point because Adrian drop kicked the ball into his own net or whatever

 

[binomial]

Is there any news with Matip Thiago and Naby? Have they travelled?

Id imagine they havent left yet

Is there any news with Matip Thiago and Naby? Have they travelled?

Its a home match.

 

[binomial]

What a fucking idiot I am.

Does anyone have any leaked reports they are back in training AT MELWOOD

 

[Squiggles]

I'm fine with large amounts of rotation. Achieving a good result early on in a group we should top comfortably has set us up nicely. This year is about conserving resources where possible and trusting your back ups to deliver.

[Beamrider]

We should just play the 11 tallest players we have, that's the best way to beat Midget Land.

 

[Modo]

No Thiago, Matip or Keita. Still injured according to Klopp.

 

[LeTallecWiz]

No Thiago, Matip or Keita. Still injured according to Klopp.

good - don't want thiago and matip playing tomorrow.

 

[Halmeister]

Matip is made out of cornflakes.

 

[binomial]

No Thiago, Matip or Keita. Still injured according to Klopp.

Keita has seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth.

He can't still be self isolating surely?
