Liverpool vs Burnley - Premier League (18/19 - Game 30)

[Sus]

Good performance and good result.

The question for me now is, does Henderson start against Bayern? I thought he was very good when he came on but I've noticed a pattern in that he's played some of his best football this season coming on in the second half with fresh legs.


Dare to say it, I would start with the same side as Sunday

Burnley were also chasing the game when he came on, so there was more space for him to hit his passes

Gini is better in tight spaces and holding onto the ball. Fabinho has to start. Then it's one of Keita, Lallana or Shaqiri to give the midfield balance.

I don't think our captain is a starter

I thought it was interesting that Klopp brought off Trent for Sturridge - and moved Henderson to right back.

At the time, we were 2 goals up - and he brought a right back off and a striker on. I suspect that Milner will either move on this summer or in 12 months time - and that Henderson will become the utility player in the squad that Milner has been over the last couple of years.

I had been thinking a similar thing, I thought Henderson did better than Milner at RB has done in the game that Milner was suspended. He can only really cover midfield and RB though. Whereas Milner covers LB as well. I don't see Henderson as first choice midfielder as thing stand. With Ox coming back and hopefully Keita stepping up next year having had some time to settle, next year looks more difficult for him.

I love Milner but it does seem like time is catching up with him.

This season it really does seem to.

Think that's very harsh on Milner. People said the same about him last year and he finished the season and started this as arguably our best player. He's been unfortunate recently in that he's had to play at RB and has been part of such an unpopular midfield, but it was only a few weeks ago he was excellent against Watford.

milner was the driving force of our midfield and his support play for the wing backs was crucial to them havng a good game.

Their first goal was the biggest load of **** I can remember in recent times
