I think Keita will start, unless injured. I dont think Harvey or Diaz starts. Matip will start, Robertson will start. If Henderson is injured or not 100% fit, then Thiago or Jones will start, hopefully Thiago, Jones is just so inconsistent, even more so than Keita (not including injuries).
LC are so shit, unfortunately they lift their game for us. Is ratface injured (Vardy)? I want to see that fat, unpalatable danish twat complaining to the ref every 5-10 minutes while he picks the ball out of the net.
Hoping the weather is semi decent and no strong swirling winds. Looks like a reasonable forecast. Fans not freezing their asses off and a later kick off should help the atmosphere as well!
Going tonight, first ever proper match at Anfield. Did see the legends match against Barcelona a few years ago. Going with my daughter although we are in different stands . We’d better score a hat full and not concede.
I just hope we get 3 points tonight without any injuries.
Back five pretty much pick themselves (Ali-TAA-Matip-VVD-Robbo), Fabinho starts as no. 6 and Jota starts today as well. The remaining 4 spots? Well, it could be anyone. If Hendo has issues, I’d go with Elliott and Keita in midfield and Ox (is he available tonight?) and Bobby in attack. Then release hungry Salah to hunt the foxes in 2nd half.
I would say there is a good chance 1 of Salah and Mane leaves this summer. It makes sense in terms of long term refreshing the team so too many players don’t age out of their prime at the same time.
This game really has the question of which returning/new player gets the start - Salah, Diaz, Elliot, Thiago are all back and could start, but you’d really prefer to have each of them come off the bench for this one. 1 or 2 of them will almost certainly start though.
