They have, it's annoying that they've got Henderson, Ibe, Milner and Sakho back, I can only hope that they aren't fully fit and won't be able to cope if we play a fast game, particularly hitting them with fast counters and using our pace on the flanks.
Worried about tonight. Klopps tactics and pressing style are exactly what we struggle against. I would take a draw.
I'm hoping what'll really make the difference is that they have players in key positions just coming back from injury, whereas a lot of our key players - Ozil, Ramsey, Kos, Merts, have been rested in the last two games.
I had been feeling good about this game, liverpools form has been sketchy at best and there players had been dropping like flies, it looked highly likely they would be missing the whole spine of there team and have midfield players covering at CB. I thought it was the sort of game we would do really well in as the backup players at Liverpool don't seem to have the fitness to lay Klopps style of football, they don't have the fitness for it yet IMO. However the team on display is far closer to there first team than I thought it would be and they have actual CBs playing, along with there hard workers Milner and Henderson in the middle who will help implement Klopps plan well. I'm now feeling less confident. Liverpool have however struggled to score anywhere near as freely as we have been and they've got Firmino starting up top by the look of it. I expect him to mainly take long range shots and miss, would have been more worried with a better forward on the field. It's the kind of game that will probably end in a draw but if I had to tip one side to win it it'd be us rather than them. With a few of there players just back from injury we could see some loose passing from Liverpool and possibly tired legs in the second half.
