This won't be easy. We've failed to score against them in 3 games. They may have had a dip in form but are still the best team we will play in our last 5 games. Lallana returning is massive for us and should allow Can to drop back into the DM role (although I do hope he makes the odd run into the box and repeats his wonder goal!)......
Tricky game for us this is. You get the feeling Southampton like playing against us as we keep pinching their players which leaves them with a point to prove. I'll be positive and say 2-1 but I can see any result in all honestly.
I agree, Firmino is much more effective up top, not so sure on Origi out wide though which is the problem.
I think we ahould keep the great man in. Lucas i mean. Just drop bigdick orgy for lallana and shift firmino to the middle.
Origi is ineffective anywhere in the front three, at least putting Firmino centrally means he's going to be more useful. Better having Firmino central and having him be of use rather than Origi central and Firmino out wide and having them both be ineffective.
I agree, it was screaming out for that change Vs Palace, I'd have also put Woodburn on for Origi this is a change I think we should put in place as Wodburn is creative and we lack that at the moment.
Lallana isn't the same in a front 3 though if I'm picking the team forthe next game I'm going... Mingo Clyne Matip Lovren Milner Can Lallana Wijnaldum Woodburn Firmino Coutinho
Thing is, Origi is the closest thing to pace in the entire team. It's shocking how pedestrian we are when it comes to pace tbh. I swear that he's only in the team for this so while I think he's pretty ineffective, he does bring something that nobody else does so I'd stick with him.
