Match Day Thread League Cup Loser round- Burton v Liverpool

Hope we play Can and Grujic in midfield with a strong team around them. If we are in the position of having a comfortable lead we can start resting players for Spurs. I hate it when we start a weakened side then when we get in trouble have to throw on senior players to desperately try to recover our position

 

Who knows what Klopp will do

 

Chris Pajak is how I imagine astro to be in real life.

 

If he's far enough to the left that He's off the field it is.

 

Sakho.

 

guess the team game anyone?

mingolet
Arnold Lovern Matip Moreno
Can stewart
Markovic Firmino Coutinho
Origi​

 

Hope Markovic doesn't get anywhere near the team, he's one lazy ****er. Grujic I'd like to see have a full game.

 

considering my results in all prediction leagues
not much point in me making a prediction

 

good call. i was wondering who i'd forgotten. thats a biggie. Deffo take out firmino and let grujic run about.

not sure if ejaria is fit yet but ojo is not.

 

comment on Burton from the echo

"He’s spoke to Josh Murray from the Burton Mail, and asked the key questions.

“This season that has changed to a 3-5-2 formation which is very attacking and based on getting at the opposition. They’ve scored nine goals in the league, more than any other team.

“They have conceded nine too, so I think the plan will be to try and outscore Liverpool rather than trying to nick the game.”

Very interesting... we were wondering earlier. guess they have changed things 3-5-2 suggests we should be trying to put those wing backs back..

 

It's a team from a lower league we have to be physical and play at a high tempo. How many times are we outdone by thinking we can tippy tap around these teams.

 

Theres a thread for this

 

@moreinjuredthanowen started it.

 

Better hope Can & Grujic are playing then

as for playing at a high tempo i always want that . We just look so much better when we play with good tempo but it does require the players not on the ball to ensure they are available for the pass.

 

Yeah it's all MITO's fault

 

He did the Burton thread as well @moreinjuredthanowen

 

Liverpool line up tonight: Mignolet, Clyne, Lovren, Matip, Milner, Henderson, Can, Lallana, Firmino, Mane, Origi. #LFC

Strong team

 

#LFC substitutes: Manninger, Klavan, Moreno, Stewart, Wijnaldum, Ings, Sturridge #BAFCvLFC

No Gruijic though, which is strange

 

**** it, you're going to lose! According to @astro

 

No Grujic! Gutted about that. Was looking forward to see him play. At the same time can und e stand Klopp wanting to establish a regular team. Not even on the bench though.
