Arsenal away build up

[Scratch]

Really hope they are still relying on Nketiah. Will need to keep Saka busy. Probably means Diaz to play on our left again and move Jota right. That will more than occupy Saka's mind and legs.

Mane on the right surely, where he was before Salah arrived? Stick Jota or Bobby through the middle and see how that front three performs. Be nice if they suddenly showed Mo (or more so, his agent) that Salah isn't the only key to our play and that they don't hold all the aces when it comes to negotiations.

Plus, if they do tear Arsenal a new one, that's 3 points to us in a tricky fixture.

I'd like to see that too

Need to beat Arsenal now as I have been engaging in verbals with the local Arsenal supporter and giving him pelters every time I have seen him since Sunday. Don't normally start chatting shyte before the final whistle at people who support another club but this has just snowballed into a torrent of shyte from me.

All it has been short, so far, is him finding me in his front garden planting a flag Souness style.


Feck the league table, bragging rights in the brekkie roll line are at stake now. Casual bystanders have been dragged into this, and the filty Mancunian that work in Centra is just waiting to fall upon he whose team loses.

Come on Liverpool, I need to be able to do the McGregor ****** strut ( more than I usually do it anyway ) on Thursday morning.

[Shaggy]

What do we think about the team?

Matip or Konate? I'd go Joel, give Konate's short absence, and play Ibou at Forest with Gomez.

Midfield has to be Fab, Thiago and Hendo.

Up front, assuming Mo is fit, I'd go Diaz, Mane and Mo. Jota, Bobby and Origi can play at Forest. Jota has been a little off it since the injury.

So for me:

Ali

TAA
Matip
VVD
Robbo

Fab
Thiago
Hendo

Salah
Mane
Diaz

Probably will be the starting XI. Kind of think Jota needs a start to reignite his goal scoring, but difficult to leave Diaz or Mane out as logic says stick with the players in form. Nice problem for Klopp to have though.

If Matip is 100% then he starts, but how bad to have the pace and power of Konate standing by to step in, not to mention Gomez if needed. Just like up front, these are the sort of selection options I reckon Klopp loves to have.


Midfield is interesting. I think if everyone is fit then your trio is the starting midfield, but would love to see Keita get a start alongside Fabinho and Thiago just to add a different dimension to our middle and make it almost press resistant with both him and Thiago in there.

Aye, Jota definitely starts for me. Like Fowler, he loves playing Arsenal and has already scored 3 times past them this season. Think it will be an easy decision for Klopp as I can't see Mo making it, but if he does, I'd probably rest Mane for this, although he has a good record against them too (as does Mo ((as does Bobby actually ))).

Seems like our forwards love playing against Arsenal, so Diaz hat-trick to get him involved in the party.

For reference:

Firmino- Most goals against them (8)
Mane- 2nd most goal (7)
Mo - Joint 4th (7)
Jota - Most goals (6)
God - 12 goals

Klopp says it "looks like" Mo is fine for tomorrow. Will train today.

[Shaggy]

Konate fit also. Milner and Tsimikas are out "as it stands in this moment".

Milner and Kostas are ‘ill’. So hopefully just 1 game then.
