Match Day Thread Vs Ballmouth (H)

Klopp said he's hoping Matip and Can will be fit for the game. Both have knocks.

Can't see Sturridge starting but having him on the bench is ideal.

 

This game is crucial - massive opportunity to put daylight between ourselves and the mancs.

 

United dropped points yesterday, we must put a daylight between us and united tonight.

DAYLIGHT

 

Anyone who is "hurting" not injured better man the **** uo and get on the pitch today.

This is tbe business end of the season now.

No room for guys sitting in the stand

 

No there isn't. We have so many of them.

 

matip and can need to just get out there. Mane clearly cannot. Henderosn dunno... lallan seems genuine but we simply cannot afford to go into came with CB partnership gone and CM down to nowt

 

Milner to reach double figures too?

 

We need to get three or more penalties before the season ends.

 

.@sammatterface: Sadio Mane has had 2nd scan after knee swelling reduced. Ligament damage. Surgery required. Likely to miss rest of season.

 

Very very bad news. Get well quick.

 

Sadly, I doubt he'll be as quick when he comes back. Really feel for him, but I feared the worst.

 

Sadio Mane's injury is music to the hears of defenders we are facing in our remaining fixtures.

 

totally expected. medial ligament i bet

 

hardly a surprise but even so
bollocks.

 

An operation to repair a damaged meniscus in his left knee would rule Mane out for eight weeks - ending his season. (James Pearce)

 

Lucas might not play again so soon

Can drops into Lucas' position and start Grujic

 

Aye, not science of the rocket!
If Can fit then the only change to the team that started again Everton is Origi in for Mane..
Given yesterdays result we really need to win to put that bit more daylight between ourselves and Untied.
Given City are playing Chelsea away, a decent result for Chelsea will help us stay above them (City) too!
