    Just feel that Fabinho gets the best out Gini and Hendo.

    This combination is proven to struggle in big games away from home.

    Both teams look to have gone defensive minded too me. I'd have preferred Fabinho playing but maybe he was looking at the mobility and energy of the two Silva's...

    agreed but this 3 is a fairly standard set up for "big" games.

    Are you seriously surprised by that? It's his go-to midfield for big games - normally they perform well, despite the 'brexit' nationality of them.

    it's patently.obvious. one only needs to look back and see where lfc have hurt city.

    salah wide..mane wide. Milner as 4th man in press

    city might well get skinned.

    or not

    Fabinho has a tendency to make some poor errors though. Against a better team than Arsenal his mistake would have been more costly.

    Best to go with the tried and trusted guys who you know will run their legs off,.and we can rely on the front 3 to do what they do best.

    I’m not surprised but I was hoping Klopp had finally cottoned on that this midfield configuration constantly struggles in big away games.

    They don’t normally play well.

    the only prediction I am going to make is this


    watch Henderson when van dijk and alisson and lovren have the ball.

    he will run into the shadow of David Silva. Just watch.

    it's not brilliance from Silva. he will be bang in the middle.of the pitch just shuffling a bit left and right and Henderson will take himself out of the game by just hanging round in a place no pass can come to him

    He always does this. he knows our drills by heart.

    every warm up he does the same. studies opposition for anything and everything
