Napoli vs. Liverpool | CL Match Day 1 | Sep 7, 20:00 | Stadio Diego Armando Maradona

[RedOverTheWater]

I agree with 9/11 choices, but on the other hand, Milner and Firmino are big game players who will help us in a hostile environment, before presumably making way for Arthur and Nunez around the hour mark?

Got the day off today. Looking all over to find the match. Googled it and found out it is streaming on Paramount+. What the heck is that? Do we even have it? Quick check, and yes we do. My wife added it months ago to watch 1883, prequel to Yellowstone. Don’t think Paramount+ has been viewed since. But there it is, in all its glory, carrying the Champions League games for the season… and best of all I didn’t order the platform, so it’s not on me!

Game on.

Have to say I am a bit concerned as our record isn’t great against Napoli, and we lack pace in that midfield so I’m thinking they might come through us. I want to get a look at Arthur to see what he can do, so hopefully we see him come on tonight, and a Nunez winner, after he comes on from the bench, would be lovely.

Napoli 1
Liverpool 2

Prefer Firmino in the middle again the CM explains itself otherwise, Klopp commented Arthur was getting up to speed.

[RedSi73]

Christ, if you listen to BT Sport, we’re about to get tanked about 15-0

[peterroberts]

Lucky you !

I’ve already got a package for the CL here in France but they ain’t gonna be showing our group games. Another fucking subscription it is then.

Who the fuck is voting in a post match poll 30mins before kick off?

Could it be like this

Alisson
Trent Gomez VVD Robertson
Fabinho Milner
Elliott Firmino Diaz
Salah

We can hope but it’s going to be Salah on right again. Don’t think we’ll change his position when we know Nunez when playing will be the one in centre.

@maxpain17

And, why do we still persist on Milner starting games.

Fucking lunacy isn’t it?

I mean surely Keita, Oxlade Chamberlain, Henderson or Jones would have been a better choice.

I think a double pivot is better suited for Milner and Fabinho.

[The-AllMightyReds]

All gonna feel like new signings.

As long as it doesn’t become this, am happy.

I am sure there’s still a lineup we can pull off without Milner starting today.

On a lighter note, I know it’s quite lunatic to not start Millie…Afterall , he has been the player with the most assists over the last 3 years. Too much creativity…it makes my tv blur

Reading that, I see you’re thinking it’ll be a pizza piss, they’re wank

It will be the seventh game between these two clubs. Both clubs have notched two wins each with the remaining two ending in stalemates. Neither club has started the season strongly, but Liverpool’s season is almost over if the opinions on a certain forum are to be believed. Three draws and a loss in six games have certainly hurt our league ambition. A lot has been (and is still being) made about our injuries and perceived lack of effort in the transfer market. But the sad truth is, none of our star players is showing the hunger they are supposed to.

As always, I’m sure that Jürgen and his team will know the personnel, formation and tactics to see us through this game. However, I must point out the fact that Salah is wasted out wide (and deep). Mane is gone, Firmino has aged; Salah can’t function like it’s 2018. Although we don’t have any choice other than to continue with Trent, his form (more importantly, body language) is worrying. Hopefully, the injury to Carvalho is minor and he will be available for this game. The arrival of Melo (what a name) along with the return to fitness of Matip, Curtis, and Jota bolsters our ranks.

I would have loved to say, three points and no injuries; but the thing I want most is the unrelenting hunger of the Mentality Monsters. Come on Reds, raise hell.

[RedSi73]

You know its a poor start from us this season when paddypower are offering 35/1 for Salah to have a shot on target

[Colossal_centre_back]

Just realized the last group game is against Napoli at home. Signs of us winning this whole thing right there!

Coming the season after losing to Real Madrid in the final…?
