Good friend of mine is a Brighton fan, he’s quite worried about today. Hoping their squad feels the same. The beauty of playing well is you’re mentally ahead before you even kick off. VAR non withstanding.
If our front 5 of Dom, Alexis, Mo, Darwin and Luis fire, it will be a good, good match.
Small correction, you are welcome .
If the plan is to push up Mac as a number 8, surely Endo will play as a number 6.
But Macallister has played well as a defensive midfielder so maybe Klopp doesn’t want to meddle with the set up. In that case he’ll surely go with either Harvey or Ryan
If MacAllister has any weakness to his game… then Brighton will probably know about it. For that reason alone, it might make sense to push Mac forward, away from any vulnerable under-belly of ours, and put Endo as the stopper
Finding it hard to drum up much enthusiasm for this after last week’s events.
I feel I’ll spend all season looking at the table and calculating what it should look like without corruption factored in. It all feels pointless, like watching a 6 part whodunnit when you know who did it after episode 1.
These cunts are fucking criminals. I said things last week that I genuinely never thought I’d say, stuff I feel real regret about now. That’s what these twats have done.
Anyway, will watch it with one eye on the 2 mancs who’ve done us over on so many occassions in the past.
Fancy a win today, think our lads will be looking to take out their frustrations on someone.
And vice versa, Alexis would know of any weakness in Brighton’s defence - so would be another reason to play him forward.
Correction:
Referee: Ant. Assistants: Gaz, Adders. Fourth official: Nutter. VAR: Chinese Chris. Assistant VAR: Wilks.
All answer to “Mate”.
Just to add to the confusion!
Its a dreadful way that we are forced to watch football.
The authenticity of the game is long gone.
Hi Mate, I’m Mate!
Elliot is apparently playing, not Endo, if twitter is to be believed. Trent for Gomez too.

Much deserved start for Elliot given his form this season.
Solid line up. We have been reliant on our attackers coming off the bench to score at times, but other than Doak, a bit thin there.
Another 3-1 victory will do me.
No Milner in the Brighton squad. Not seen him for a while…injured? Brighton missing a few players today.

Interesting that Chambers has made it to the bench again, are we that thin in the squad at the moment?
Definitely an odd pick considering we have 3 centre backs and a left back already on the bench. Guessing it’s a reward for training well, don’t see how he’s getting a game unless it’s already won.
I thought that too,5 defenders on the bench.No Gakpo,Jones or Jota to pick from though.
Pretty offensive line-up and pretty defensive bench. Let’s hope we get the lead early and build on it.
Totally forgot that Jota is suspended.
With the way we showed up the PGMOL and giving who the MO are I wonder how long we have to play with 10 man …
