I honestly don't care about this match, I just want to see us try something different.

I'm looking forward to this, Klopp needs a reaction from the players so it will be really interesting to see what happens on the pitch tonight.

Same, would love to see players with energy, Bajcetic, Ramsay have to start and if they play well they need more minutes in the next games.

I know this comes up from time to time and usually gets shot down, but what about trying TAA in midfield? Our current midfield options aren't working great

*ducks for cover*

[Pablo]

I totally agree. It’s a free hit

I don't know if it's a free hit? A free hit for me is when it doesn't matter if you lose. If we were in good form I'd say this is a free hit.

We REALLY need a win right now, even if it's in the FA Cup.

I'm totally fine with us making changes as the side we are putting out right now is failing miserably, but I still think we badly need the win tonight one way or another. We have to try to find some kind of momentum and positivity soon or we are in big trouble.

On that reasoning, why not try Ali in midfield?

We need a midfield that functions defensively; why would putting a defender who is currenty not functioning defensively into midfield help?

I was thinking that against Brighton. Nothing to lose at this point. He is not effective in his current role. He has youth and quality missing from the midfield.

Will the mean reverting to 442? Could be tricky when we have a glut of attacking players and limited midfield options.

Yeah I’d suspect so with Salah & Gakpo up top

I hear what you’re saying & I mean a free hit in the sense that I’d rather us try it here than the league. We’ve got to give everything to try to make top 4 so if we are going to give TAA a chance in midfield I’d rather it was tomorrow than a league match.

Is that a leaked team or your preference? I would prefer this team.

[wiw]

****sake, we're playing again already?

Hoping Brighton was the nadir we needed and we can bounce back. Surely it can't get any worse

He thrives on getting forward and is encouraged in our system to do that. Unfortunately what that means you leave gaps behind and get caught high up. Elliot & Henderson have already failed miserably at this job multiple times. I don't rate Trent as a defender but it does not help his situation when the person in front of him that is meant to be covering him when he does go forward simply isn't capable of doing their job & we constantly get caught on the break. That Gini type player does not exist in our squad any more.

That isn't to excuse his utter laziness this season & I would consider myself one of his biggest critics but getting him away from the defence imo is a good thing. Regardless of his form or attitude, he still has one of the best strikes of a ball out there, so imo it would be good to utilize that in this particular game. I would be interested to see him playing that KDB role where he can pick out passes and crosses & at least have someone with pace like Gomez (I know) to cover behind him & maybe even overlapping. I would say Ramsey but I don't think I even know what he looks like & if Klopp is going to play one of the kids, imo it might be Bajcetic in midfield. More than likely Keita will start, it would be nice for him to actually do something for the club before ****ing off in the summer.

Personnel wise, we are ****ed and I don't think we'll see Klopp use Trent like this ever but something has to be changed. He'll probably just get benched.

My guess/preference. I am not ITK!
