    Decent side. Konate playing for a bit more pace at the back and power in the air. Nice to have Jota and Bobby on the bench. Should be a good game, they are no pushovers so expect a few scary moments!

    Surprised not played one of Jota or firmino. Not sure about mane centrally. And if need to bring them both on then Jota goes wide which isn’t as effective.

    Watch Mane get a brace now... But yeah, I agree. I don't know why Klopp plays him central. He's not good there.

    I think we have said OK... otamendi, always worth a red. Vertonghen. Dead slow.

    Get the pace at them.

    We are not going to pile on high intensity out of cm so we will be trying to isolate these two old.men and running them ragged

    So far their lines are extremely close together. Zero engagement with our cbs


    They are focused on half spaces but there's masses of space wide and behind

    It's a cliche, but must quieten the crowd. Keep the ball, give then no encouragement.

    Brilliant pass from Diaz. Not sure if it was meant for mane or Salah but neither could quite get it in.

    That's twice Mane has miscontrolled in the middle. Just keep imagining Firmino there with his close control.
