How long into the game, before the first hamstring injury?

That lad with the long blonde hair in the middle looks a unit. We’ll have to watch him.

Jenas reckons it could still be a very close game… :laughing:

If you pick a team like the one Jurgen has picked then you really have to go out and smash them to a fucking pulp.

If we don’t absolutely smash this lot then I’m taking a break from football for a bit…

I forgot about the first four defenders but… it doesn’t really matter. They’re all crap.

Had a look at their u23s earlier and immediately staked over 100 quid on us to batter them by 6+ tonight. Could cash out now and be 50 quid up.

I genuinely expect this to hit double figures.

Don’t understand why Klopp is risking Fabinho, Wijnaldum and Mane???

Well…if we don’t win tonight, we have a problem…

Mad to have Fabinho, Henderson, Gini, Salah and Mane anywhere near this game.

Unless of course he’s hoping the front lads will fill their boots and restore some confidence.

Because we are shit scared of losing the ball and conceding…

Should be easy money. They got beat 8-1 by Sunderland, 3-0 by Fleetwood and 3-1 by Carlisle reserves.

If we don’t stop playing this stupid possession game and actually take some risks we will struggle against any team…

I think them will peter out before then. I don’t think anyone on our side will take the pleasure that Villa took from battering a team of kids when the roles were reversed.

Klopp is a decent human being, and I think he’ll instruct the lads to go easy and not rub a very young sides noses in it.

If he leaves Salah on then no chance is he going to let up.
