Pre and In Match Thread. Leeds United vs Liverpool. Elland Road.. EPL. Sunday Sept 12th. 1630 hrs

He’s on the bench as is Milner. I presume Niether is seen as fit enough to play 90 minutes. Last time Hendo played he was subbed off due to this something I think Klopp dislikes he prefers keeping all his subs for eventualities imo.

Not overly surprised Hendo isn’t starting, bound to be some rotation with the CL starting and some big games on the horizon. Probably wants him ready for Milan.

Glad to see no Raphinha in Leeds squad :+1:

Hendo should be resting when the international breaks come around…
Not putting himself through the mill again for the likes of Southgate

A fit Ox again not picked.
Nabbys had a stressful week so can see why he is left out but i am surprised he isn’t playing if fit.
Thiago……big game for him. Needs to move the ball quick.

Interesting team. Elliot again. Cool. I really hope he will take these chances and grow. So far, very good and I like what I see.

By the way, our defence looks really strong on paper. Trent maybe weakest link (but he is sooooo good offensively so obviously worth it) but everyone is just really good.Certainly our best. A sight we have seen far too little last season, with Matip and Van Djk flanked by our younger defensive wings. Love it !
Let us hope our guys can find a way to play themselves into top form now soon. Would be terrific to go on a long spell of W-W-W-W-W-W-W-W-W-W and so on :slight_smile: ! :love_you_gesture:

Anyone else watching LFC TV build up programme? Pretty sure wasn’t in squad that they showed :thinking:

Sky have him playing…ah well

For some reason I am not feeling very confident :thinking: I remember from visits to Elland Road that it can be a very hostile atmosphere…

What? How? Sky showed hes playing.

Think Klopp wants to continue on the Elliot, TAA, and Salah link on the right. Gives an option for TAA to come inside, with Harvey moving wide and Salah running central.

With K Phillips back for Leeds, they will look more like last season’s team, so will be a tough game.

Sensational.
A wordsmith beyond compare. Tom Waits voice would barely cover it…

Surprised to see Elliot selected again. Hopefully he’ll be up for the fight awaiting him for sure, as well as all other lads on the pitch today and we’ll take the three points today!

Just had Klopp on an advert for Erdinger beer on German telly. A German, on German telly, advertising a German beer for a German audience. Naturally, the advert was in English…

nice to see our fans are loud and out singing them!
Edit. Not anymore. Nice atmosphere to be frank!

German’s a tricky language, to be fair.

Probably because it filmed in Liverpool. Dovedale Towers, to be precise.
