Whats even more impressive than thiagos world class dribbling and passing ability is the fact he wins every header he goes for.

Sam allardyce would love him.

seriously is there anything thiago can't do?

He can’t tackle for ****.
 
Some of our shooting last night would get laughed at on a Sunday night 5 aside league.

Minamino is sh!t but his last performance against Palace was more than we've seen from Firmino in months, yet he won't get picked
 
I tend to forget how good dribbling he is. Think of him being deep and playing passes but on the ball he has a few tricks to go past players. Was one moment in first half where did a little step over, dragged ball and slipped past Fred like wasn’t there.

He used to be far more attacking midfielder in early barca days so I guess he’s got it from that which is good to see

He's brilliant as a number 6 but we would get much more out of him if he's playing as the 8 with Fabinho holding.

Can't wait until everyone is fit and available...

Alisson
Trent - Gomez - VVD - Robbo
Hendo - Fabinho - Thiago
Salah - Bobby - Mane​

... will be awesome.

I'm convinced we'd be walking this league again right now if all were available.

I'd swap bobby with Jota but you're right - that is an immense team. Several truly world class footballers. you only have to look at earlier this season and we were playing pretty well and winning games.

It's a shame we won't be seeing this any time soon.

Knew you'd mention Bobby although I'd forgotten about Jota too so no argument there

Not sure if it was mentioned earlier but it's funny how the ref blew the whistle earlier when Mane was clean through on goal ... Pretty much shows how we're having little to no luck at the moment.

This is the reason I keep saying any kneejerk conclusion against this team is a misrepresentation of the true facts. We are playing like a team struggling through structural issues due to the injuries.

The impact of losing all our senior CBs to injury as well as our inform attacking player has not allowed us to field a consistent team.

Losing Virg and Joe was bad but since we lost Matip it has been a struggle since weve lost quality options in MF. A fully fit LFC walks this league by a mile again. Hopefully we get some more bodies fit and find some form soon. A win at United in the cup could give us a major boost in confidence
 
Yeah but can he "ping" the long balls to the fast guys like VvD?
Without that you are missing half your attack according to what i read on here <laugh>
Don't believe everything you read.
We'll find out what he can do when he's had some time to do it.

It's more about the press and high line mate but feel free to twist away ;)
