[Savant]

Both Matip and Klavan out for Liverpool at Brighton.

Meaning they will be getting Moreno, Lovren, Gomez, Trent at the back, unless Robertson is rotated in (which is possible). Champions League game on Wednesday too and no other Centerbacks in sight. Matip looks week-to-week and right on schedule as this is around when he has gotten injured every year he has been in the team.

 

[Cassano]

Lacazette will miss the game vs. Utd. Might be out a few weeks actually. Fortunately, the schedule in December doesn't seem as taxing so they should be okay without him...

 

[YNWA14]

Hope Klopp uses Coutinho, Solanke and Robertson for this one.

TAA - Lovren - Gomez - Robertson
Milner - Wijnaldum - Henderson - Coutinho
Salah - Solanke
​

That's what I would use with the CL game being imperative next week where I'd like to see Ox, Mane, Firmino, Moreno and possibly Lallana come back in.

Either way it's a must win game. Hope the lads keep up the good league form.

 

[hatterson]

United missing Bailly, Jones, and Fellaini, while Matic is in doubt.

Mourinho says we'll attack when we have the ball, but with those injuries on defense I'd be shocked to see him be aggressive. He'll try and lock it down and hope for a fluke goal or a draw.

I think Lallana is still banged up. I do like that lineup on the road but I would take Wijnaldum out for AOC, (who has been great). I do think Milner has to be on to help Trent out.

Not a bad bet against Arsenal any day of the week

 

[Savant]

Sounds like that Rashford game

Lindelof-Smalling-Rojo back 3. Gonna stuff the MF and look to counter.

 

[hatterson]

Pretty decent first half between Newcastle and Chelsea. Chelsea obviously the better team, but Newcastle is getting some chances here and there.

 

[Savant]

Emre Can is playing Centerback today. Never thought I would see that under Klopp, especially in a Back 4. Robertson is in at LB too.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Ugh. Eriksen is still getting free passes into the lineup.

 

[YNWA14]

I like the lineup. Good rotations even if they're mostly forced. Hope it's still the 4-4-2.

Don’t think it is with this personnel.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Blatant foul on Kane in the box for gods sake.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Ref is f***ing horrific.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Lloris caught sleeping.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

Serves them right.

 

[maclean]

Liverpool couldn't have put that goal together better if Brighton hadn't had any players in their own half

 

[Savant]

So Wijnaldum is basically playing LCB in a back 3 today. Can at RCB. If you are going to experiment may as well do it at Brighton.

 

[Cassano]

Ugh. Eriksen is still getting free passes into the lineup.

That was a nice assist by him.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

That was a nice assist by him.

It was. He's looking better today. But I still think that he should have been punished in some way for his performances these past two months.

Yep. Beautiful team goal. If Salah's touch was better today he could probably have had 2 more.

Yeah it was weird to watch at first but they're playing a 3421. Looks alright so far. I like Can at CB. Best place for him if he can be disciplined. Also Coutinho looks good today.

Yeah. Robertson and Trent are playing super high up the pitch it’s definitely 3-4-something

 

[maclean]

Salah is on fire, sometimes you have to really wish they counted assists in football
