PreMatch | Liverpool vs Wolverhampton | PL Matchday 38 | Sunday May 22nd 16:00h | Anfield

Our high line is vulnerable today without Virgil to marshall or Fab to mop up. Need to improve 2nd half. Also Jota needs to contribute more up front.

I hope Thiago is alright or else we can use Thiago’s injury record as our sales pitch to Auralien Tchouameni!

If we draw this and citeh not win, I hope Konate will not be too hard on himself!

Something not quite right with Matip. He’s been unable to get into a sprint. On a couple of occasions, he was positioned in such a way that he would be favourite to get the ball, but he instead kinda jogged in position to cover rather than sprint to the ball.

Jota needs to wake up…

Maybe Mo or Bobby for Jota

Milner. Need some solidity in the midfield.

Golden glove for Ali (albeit shared with Ederson)

Jota has been poor since his return from injury. Expected Bobby to get the nod once he was fit.

Milner coming on.

And Klopp should get a right bollocking to robbo who’s running like a headless rabbit.

Fuck me this is tense. We need one goal, citeh need two.

I fancy us still but this will be down to the wire.

Hope Millie (and Klopp’s HT talk) can instill a bit of calm. Not too much, mind. Just enough to control and win the match.

We still cannot control what citeh do but imagine if we don’t win here and they don’t come back. I don’t know if I could take it.

Not sure I can do another 45 of this.

We look dangerous every time we go forward but my god we’re loose at the back. Desperately missing Virg to just calm everyone the fuck down.

We’re now playing with something to lose so just need to do what we do and squeeze them, not look out for a knock out punch every time.

Just keep our heads, play our way and the next goal or two will come but we need to settle at the back, at least until we absolutely need to throw the kitchen sink at it.

Milner do the Fab job…no heroics…

Was anyone else scratching their head trying to work out why the Wolves goal wasn’t offside? If they aren’t going to show the full pitch they could at least point out it was straight from the goal kick.

Anyway, we seem to be creating enough chances up front but not getting the shots in. I’d like to see a Diaz, Mané Salah front three but I’m not sure whether we can do that if Thiago is off.

Hopefully Klopp is giving them an ear bashing at the moment.

Who’s going to do the Thiago job? He was our best player so far

We need to win this first before thinking about the citeh result

Get in Millie immediately and then Salah later. Half tempted to keep in Tsimikas in place of Robbo as well.

Both CB’s have been nervous holding that line. Both FB’s have probably the lowest pass success % I’ve ever seen from either of them.

Right now the occasion is getting to all 4 defensive players and they need to relax. We don’t need to put the ball in the back of the net in 5 mins. We need to wear them down and take our time with clean possession.

To say we need Virg on is an understatement though to be fair.
