Game on !!!!!!

[Rigadon]

Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Keita midfield please.

[Nicey]

Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Keita midfield please.

Agreed, I am a big fan of Hendo but he is not for all types of games, we all know what will happen, Burnley will sit back and put a narrow block on, give us the ball out wide and just wait for a chance.

I suspect Millie will get the nod ahead of Naby. Would love to see Shaq again coming on early if off the bench, like 55 minutes so he has time to reek havoc

[rodo]

gini didnt look fit on sunday

[brightred]

Thank **** it's an early kick off. I hate having to wait until 4 on a Sunday.

[rodo]

yeah 12 is a pisser but there are 5 home games left the atmosphere at the other 4 will take care of themselves seeing as it`s spurs,chelsea then a friday night against huddersfield and the last day title win against wolves so the shiraz at 9 for me for a brekkie then a couple in ruby blues about 10 and then on to the ground to get behind them boys and bring the ******* thing home

[brightred]

Shiraz at 9! I like your style.

[Bender]

Shiraz at 9! I like your style.

Shiraz at 9? i thought we'd signed some Turkish striker

[Buzzo]

Shiraz at 9? i thought we'd signed some Turkish striker

We should sign him. He's a decent aged, full bodied red.

[Liverpool]

Lovren is freshly available to be ruled out again

'Ox very positive and we are excited of course' - Klopp

Klopp on Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain playing against Derby for the under 23s today: "He's a smart boy. It was clear he would need some sessions to prepare himself for a game.

"Very positive. But he was out a long time and we need to be sensible.

"He's ready so we let him go.

“Derby is a tough opponent. The previous game against Everton he could have played but I wasn’t sure about the intensity but now he is ready and we’ll let him start.

“We are excited of course.”



'It’s important to be optimistic and excited'

On Man City being top of the Premier League table: “Luckily we don’t have to change much.

“The plan is still to win football games and that is difficult enough.

“We will know the City result before we start our game but we won’t make a big fuss about it because we are just fighting for the top spot in the league and it’s important to be optimistic and excited."

On Burnley: “Our only problem this week is Burnley and that’s enough - we have to be really good to beat this team, Dyche is doing an amazing job perhaps with not the best circumstances in the league.

“We have prepared for the fact it will be tough.”



'Mo has an unbelievable scoring record'

On Mo Salah's goal scoring record: “If you have chances in a game you want to score but as a manager I’m more than used to players not scoring all the time.

“Mo has an unbelievable scoring record and that is a part of why we are in the position we’re in now.

“As long as we keep creating chances that’s fine.”



Reds injury updates

“Dejan [Lovren] trained yesterday completely normally for the first time.

“Joe [Gomez] is now running with 100% of his weight and that looks good.

“Most of the problems will be sorted probably after the international break but Dejan we have to see because he’s been out for a while. He is not injured anymore but how fit he is we need to say.

“Rhian [Brewster] is in a really good way and a place where Ox was three weeks ago probably.

“Milly [James Milner] everything heals quicker but still three days to go, he trained yesterday with the rehab coach and if you asked him he will say he is ready.

“Jordan [Henderson] is fine.”



'I have no bad feelings'

Klopp on manager regrets after fallout situations such as with Sean Dyche: “We are all human beings and we react in the moment.

“I make mistakes in my life and I regret them. I have no idea what he said after the game.

“We are all under different circumstances and that’s all but I don’t think there is anything to regret and I have no bad feelings about this.”



'Most intense training sessions are the games and we'll be prepared for that'

On Liverpool's training schedule: “We have had a good training week and we are able to do a lot of things.

“If you have time to train you always have to work hard and hopefully we can put these things onto the pitch.

“We can do a lot today as well and that’s very important.

“You can’t play softly during the week and hope players don’t get injured, we have to work on things to improve.

“The most intense sessions is always the game and we will be prepared for that.”



'Burnley are so consistent'

On Burnley's early form: “They are so consistent in what they are doing.

“I had a similar situation at Mainz when we were challenging in Europe for the first time and lost the first five games of the Bundesliga. We were not used to it.

“Burnley are very physical, quick transitions and counter attacks but when they had to travel and play Thursday, Sunday, Thursday, Sunday it takes time.

“Now they are going for it like we all are and that gets my respect.”



'Go to bed at 10pm latest, don’t drink and be on your toes'

Jurgen Klopp has some words of wisdom for the fans ahead of a 12:00 GMT kick-off time on Sunday.

“We always have this question about when we have a 12 noon kick off.

“We don’t have issues with this anymore. We need atmosphere at 12 o’clock.

“If you have a ticket, go to bed at 10pm latest, don’t drink and be on your toes from the first to the last second.


More from Jurgen on the threat Burnley pose:

“The game for us at Turf Moor is not important as it was three months ago.

“When they play five at the back it doesn’t work out 100% if I am correct so we expect 4-4-2.

“[Ashley] Barnes is good in the air and gets in behind and they are good on the wings. Crosses we should expect.

“They also don’t have majority of possession in games so we need to be creative and patient.

“It will be difficult - they are highly motivated.

“When you watch their last three or four games you give respect - they beat Tottenham.

“I’m sure they’re looking forward to this game.”

Naby ****ing Keita please. He was great away against these cloggers.

[BobTheCharmer]

Naby ****ing Keita please. He was great away against these cloggers.

Agreed. He was starting to get a rhythm into his game before being bombed at Utd.
