Leicester (a) build up

[S-RED]

Another TV outing, need a solid performance, just can't see it at the moment though; one screw up & heads will drop

Positive thread so far.

I think we'll win comfortably. The 45 mins Coutinho got under his belt on Tuesday was invaluable. I expect at least one goal Coutinho/Salah combo. Coutinho playing also means our other midfielders are not required as much to create or force the play and can concentrate on winning their midfield duels. Does Tues indicate that Can and Milner will startin midfield as both Gini and Henderson played the full 90

Robertson has earned the right to a Premier League start although Moreno has had his moments. Firmino needs to play through the middle to create more space for the wide players cutting in. 1-3 Liverpool. Salah (2), Firmino

Can has a knock. If you think this thread is bad, check twitter. I usually don't bar professional stuff but the knives are out for Klopp (which for the record is ridiculous IMO). I wonder what the mood at the ground is like at the next home game.

Yeah have a feeling we will beat them by two goals as well. Agree on Robertson. He has looked very promising in each of his two starts and would llike to see him go again.

TAA---Matip---Gomez---Robbo

Hendo----Couthino---Can/Ginni

Salah------Firmino-----Moreno

I hope The Ox starts.

[Exiled_red]

So no Matip or Lovren, it looks like our only option is a centre back pairing of Klavan and Gomez. We all knew that this would happen at some point, which is again showing the madness of only going into the season with 4 centre backs a couple of whom are prone to picking up knocks.

I suspect you're being sarcastic there Bob but I would like to see him start, think it will help with his confidence. Seen as Can is likely to miss this one I'd stick the Ox in the middle.

Can is fit and available for the Leicester game,Matip is also expected to be ok,Ox has a slight calf strain.

Me sarcastic? actually I do want him to start if fit. He needs games to get the confidence going.

Cout , Salah and Firmino gonna actually take our chances this week and give the battering a team deserves against us

[Charly]

I think Firminho is a bit one dimensional. If he cant play his game by dropping off the front, he is near useless. Out wide or on the shoulder of the last defender he provides zero threat.

I think thats fine with both Mane and Salah on the pitch with him in his false 9 position.

If either is missing, we shoud consider dropping him, and never play him out wide... ever.
