Liverpool Thread - Premier League Champions* 2019/20 (Part 2)

Hendooooo!! Great result!

Derby midweek, hope we see Karius in the team. Mingolet gives me heart problems every time he's within 20 feet of the ball. 

Karius in and Sakho could be included in the team to play Derby tomorrow (Showing at 6am on SS3)

Starting line-up vs Hull?

Coutinho misses out for me, Lallana and Firmino playing much better football at the moment. Possibly Firmino goes up front and Coutinho out left and Sturridge misses out but he's been brilliant in creating space for the other players. 

Karius

Clyne     Matip     Lovren     Milner

Henderson     Wijnaldum

Lallana

      Mane     Sturridge     Firmino     

Also, if you haven't seen this yet, watch it.

Klopp is awesome. 

Lineker is a douche. Love how Klopp called him out, "fishing for compliments", that was bloody great. 

Lineker does love himself a bit, but is your judgement clouded by a certain white clad team?

I know Lineker was an excellent striker and never got carded in his career. Leicester, Everton and Spuds were happy with him.

Sakho has made a big mistake with his social media outburst and he'll be gone in the next window unless he makes some huge changes and Klopp has a change of heart. He's a good defender and a potential leader but is prone to lapses in professionalism.

With Matip coming along nicely, Lovren thriving under Klopp, Klavan a willing replacement when needed and Lucas able to do a great job there, Sakho should have shut-up and got on with it but he's now 5th choice and possbily even 6th choice once Gomez is fit. 

Ha - forgot I did that

Need to sort out that set piece defense though

LFC vs United

8am tomorrow at 5 Stags (above 4 Kings)

Be sure to be one of the 700m people who watch this game (not all at 5 Stags of course)

Why is this on a Monday over there?

No idea, the request to move it was made by Sky Sports - maybe they figured it was the best way to boost viewership worldwide, especially of neutrals who then have to tune in on 3 separate nights and is an especially big boost as its hte most watched domestic fixture in the world. 

Sky Sports have been given the green light to move the game for their Monday night slot after consulting the relevant  authorities.

Going to be a cracking game. Predictions Leggy?

I will leave the predictions to the others who are always predicting.

Liverpool to win 3 – 1, goals from Coutinho, Mane, Firmino and Rashford. Liverpool are looking really clinical early in the season; they're a pleasure to watch.

Quite possibly the most boring post i have ever read on these forums.

Liverpool 3 (Hendo, Sturridge, Matip) - United 2 (Ibra x2)

With my history of always picking the loser, I am hoping for a United win.

Well, that was underwhelming...

Mourinho is playing away to a team he's scared of - what did you expect?

Origi should start next match instead of Sturridge.

I think we're still best with Firmino playing up top. He would have started but Lallana was still not 100% after the knock playing for England. Once Lallana came on and players moved back to where they were comfortable, it was much better but a shade too late

Oh yeah, God is here next month!

Just reading some of the match analysis, not surprised you struggled in the first half when you're forced to change two thirds of your in-form midfield. Can and Coutinho are very different players to Lallana and Wijnaldum, it was always going to be tough to gel from the get go with a change like that. 

Sounds like Lallana is absolutely carving at the moment? F365 reckon he made a massive difference when he came on...

The system works better with him in it and Firmino at the point. The three players to benefit most from Klopp coming on board are Lallana, Hendo and Firmino and Adam would be top of those three. Huge work rate, runs good lines and picks out the right passes.
