In addition to the absence of our regular CB, Alisson missed some games as well. Playing Tsimikas (or Neco) would have only added to the instability/unfamiliarity. With Fabinho shielding the backline and Nat-Kabak showing promise, I guess Klopp will consider giving Tsimikas some minutes.
Yeah, one can always hope.

He was quality last night. Sometimes you feel heās hitting such limits that he starts struggling a little bit. Last year he had a few weak performances. But then he can quickly respond with such energy, youād think he just had a fresh break. Incredible power of will and endurance. Heās gold.

Yep definitely agree on this and Robbo is dependable defensively, just hope with the defence looking more stable that they can give him a rest

Be that as it may, his passing was poor Monday like it is for weeks now.

He is knackered man. He needs a rest.

Yeah, I thought he was really poor on Monday and heās been off for a while. He looks to me like he is running on fumes.

Yep at one point against Wolves, canāt remember who, but they played in a ball between the defense and it was one usually Robbo gets to but Robbo was yards awayā¦ Just didnāt have it in him.

He reacted weakly in Wolvesā first attack yeah. But overall I thought he was better, really solid. It was in midfield where I donāt think we had enough performers and couldāve controlled the game better. It was a very solid defensive display from our defence and Jota up top who was in top mood for combining.

Sorry I meant on our attack. He did well defensively.

Up until a few games ago, where he was subbed off around the 89th minute, he was apparently the only outfield player in the league who had played every minute of the season in the league. That is an astonishing workload, even more so given he tends to play every minute of the international breaks as well.

Iām a gear junkie and I noticed Robbo training today in Adidas Nemeziz boots and heās usually in Nike boots for matches. Adidas has already converted Thiago and Naby from Nike.

Not totally, Thiagoās been back playing games in Nike lately. Sometimes it depends from training to games. Nike are changing their strategy with players.

I read a Tifo/Athletic article which says Nike is being more aggressive in other fields and letting some of its football stars go.
Played the full 90 minutes.

He is going to play in two remaining games too.
He needs to be carefulā¦
LFC supporters are already watching and wary of burn-outā¦
Kostas may not only take his placeā¦ but also his iconic status!

Like Asia and Africa, Europe should have a qualification round to weed out some of the lesser teams. There are 15-20 teams who will have absolutely no implications on the qualifications.
