Liverpool v Brentford (A) PL

[Paul12]

Monday 2nd 5.30pm kick off

On Sky

We need to move on as quickly as possible from the Leicester game. Bearing in mind it sounds like we will have none of the injured players back, Gakpo is unlikely to be available and there must be some questionmarks over Robbo and Harv after they went off injured, what changes can and should be made to both freshen things up and actually improve things? I think:

Konate for Matip
Tsimikas for Robertson
Keita for Henderson
Fabinho for Elliott
Carvalho for Oxlade-Chamberlain

Those changes make us infinitely stronger. Except I would drop VvD for Konate.

And Toney is out injured, that must improve our odds...

Gakpo would be eligible to play, I would be tempted to put him in for Ox

I’d be tempted to stick ox in midfield if fab isn’t available

no chance Cody starts, bench for sure but would be surprised if Klopp throws him straight in against a well drilled team;If he does the LB is in for a busy day!! Unless he throws him up top & Nunez wider.

Unleash the beast I say. It’s not like we’re dropping Diaz or Jota or someone else in scintillating form are we.

Normally I would agree, but as has been mentioned above it's not like we are dropping Diaz or Jota or someone who has been playing there all season, it would be in place of Ox who has been playing out of position and has been poor, on that basis bringing in a new signing to play in their preferred position is less of a risk IMO

Has Gakpo been cleared?

It depends if the FA do the paperwork, given when we signed him, it should have been submitted, he can only officially sign from 1st Jan, so paperwork needs to have been processed today, wouldn't be surprised if FA can't be arsed...

It’s New Year’s Day and a Sunday?! Why would they be doing admin?
