Whats happened to Firmino?
Too much pace and guile up front. I think we can afford a little rotation in the back. I can see us 3-0 up by half time. Come on you Redmen
Can we loan Suarez just for this game?
Good rotation. A more offensive midfield traded for a safe and steady CB as RB. Weâll have most of the ball, and will be nice to see how Diaz, Mane and Salah, as three wide forwards, play and link up together.
Suspect trents just having a rest. Chillax everyone. All is well.
We are starting with Luis today
Diaz brace
Diaz Mané Salah
Diaz Salah Mané
But I am expecting
Mané Diaz Salah
Oh gawdâŠterry turtleheadâŠis the refâŠ
I back the choice to switch the fullbacks. We play a high energy game with them getting up and down the flanks, and the games are coming thick and fast. Tsimikas came in and did very well for Robbo previously, and hopefully he will pick up where he left off.
Slight question mark over Gomez, both in terms of his current level post long term injury, and also as he is not a right back specialist. We all know those two points, so thereâs no need being wise after the fact if it doesnât go exactly to plan. Trent needs a breather, and Gomez needs to see some action, so the decision makes sense.
Midfield Iâm a bit surprised Jones isnât starting as I thought heâd get the nod. Still, the trio we have should be able to do the job.
Up front, very interesting, and potentially very exciting. Pace, movement, if that trio is anything close to what it could do on paper, Norwich wonât cope.
I expect the conditions to be the main obstacle, and Norwich to fight hard as they are fighting for their Prem lives.
2-0 Liverpool, iffy display, but three points. And Diaz to get his first goal.
Salah will be central, at least nominally. Lots of overlapping though.
Iâm fine with the Gomez selection, he needs games and Trent needs rest (massively, isnât he one of the most in our squad for minutes?).
I know thereâll be a tweak tactically due to Gomez not being attacking enough for our usual system, but itâs not like klopp doesnât know that. Iâm sure heâll have tweaked the ideas.
Over the moon to see Lucho start, I think he more than deserves it based on his play so far. Hope he gets himself a goal or two to back up his excellent performances.
Joey to score a header! Youâve heard it here first!
Also weird thought: could we see a bit of a 3-4-3 with Ox in the RWB role? Something like:
Gomez Matip Virgil
Oxlade Hendo Keita Tsimikas
Mane Salah Diaz
Again, the front three very rotating. Might be interesting but then again when Klopp has used systems other than the 4-3-3 it usually hasnât worked out that well for us. Will be fun to see what happens; I trust our staff.
FFS Alisson, even T-Rex passes better than than.
Joe having a shit game at RB, FSG just refuse to spend money on the squad.
Virgil, way to slow there, needs to find his speed that heâs lost.
Matip, ffs, be stronger in the air.
Keita thatâs just shit play, you need to track back.
Someone needs to tell me what Ox bring to this team, other than running around? Needs to be subbed, Jurgen get off your ass and do something.
That was terrible from Hendo, canât see him lasting another year.
Mane getting sold, can barely control the ball. Pass the ball. Diaz is right there ffs.
Fucking hell, Moâs head is buried in the unsigned contract, canât finish for shit.
Oh lord, knew Diaz was going to be a two game wonder, I give up. No way we can catch the cheaters with this team.
Ok, there it is, see you at half time.
PS: Forgot Timmy. You shit, get back into the wheelchair.
Mo on 149 Liverpool goals.
Come on Liverpool, letâs have 3 of the best and none of theirs. Working from now so see you all in the post match celebration
Cmon moâŠmake it 150âŠ
Interesting line up. Letâs see how Diaz does up front.
Or more
Ali not happy.
