Pre Match | Liverpool vs Atalanta | CL Matchday 4 | Wednesday November 25th 20:00h | Anfield

The 5 subs give us great options to take off Matip, Wijnaldum, Mané, Milner early in the second half.

Could see some of the kids make their debut if we are in control.

If we need game changers the likes of Bobby, Fabinho, Robbo and Diogo could come on.

You are as durable as Daniel Sturridge and Naby Keita’s illegitimate lovechild…

Weird question…

Not that weird. It’s been legal for a while, gramps.

I think the idea is this lot tend to leave a lot space behind them so really expose themselves to what Div is best at. It may not be a case of giving him a run out as much as saving everyone else…although not that Taki needs to be rested.

I forgot you messaged me about what I was wearing today. Lots of others have done so as well. I am going with the special edition blue and gold Hendo shirt.

Hope that helps.

Expecting taki to get some minutes out there too. Both taki and div need game time

Klopp is probably not gonna use the full 5 subs most of the times though but its still good that you can have that to rotate the players

Sporty line up. Let us hope this will go smoothly.

Day off today… rest of the week off for Thanksgiving. Had credit at the local golf club from a league I played in, two golf shirts, two pairs of shorts, that’s the shopping done. Home, exercised (mostly out of guilt for all I’m planning to eat!) And now boom! Game coming up. It’s on CBS all access here but fortunately I have that.

Get the win, sort qualification out with plenty to spare… then onto Brighton.

What do I want to see? A win, obviously. But then it will be nice to get a look at Tsimikas. And the Williams brothers in defence too. And Jones is starting to grow in authority in midfield, so hopefully he has a good game. And come on big Div, take a leaf out of Jota’s book and apply yourself! We all see the athletic gifts you have. Please don’t drift through the game man!

Can’t wait.

Looks like a line-up to get goals and try to coast to me. Actually could be a good style of game for Origi playing in the middle, Atalanta let the last match turn into a bit of a track meet.

My stream is currently showing Liverpool VS Everton from 1996. Anything slightly more contemporary please?

Thx :wink:

Will also be priceless experience for our youngsters this. This squad includes players who probably would not have played in a Champions League game had it not been for Covid Schedule and asociated injuries.

Surprised to see Origi in there instead of Minamino. The hype they were giving Taki during pre-seson made me think we’d see more of him this season.

But for Div to be getting the start here makes me think he’s struggling to make an impact because Origi has been pretty woeful in recent months.

Would loved to have seen him given a go down the middle with Salah and Mane either side as it’s so rarely happened since he arrived.

Completely agree, particularly with Klopp’s comments about Taki today. Very surprised he’s not in the Bobby role, I guess we’ll see him in the second half

My guess is that we will see that in the second half for at least part of the time, unless or until Klopp takes Mane off.
