Match Day Thread Vs Man City (A)

On 1:58 is the best, where he puts his fist into the players gut and screams in his face when the player gets a bit uppity

You know he's a legend when you'd watch 90 mins of him doing this thing

 

that was his finest moment

Tobes still froths from the mouth about this given the right bait

 

I think the quote referred to was from Stephen Warnock, not Neil.

 

Have a feeling Bobby may start due to the media attention surrounding jotas form and Klopp being asked about Bobby's place in the team.

Show of faith from Klopp so to speak, hope bobby chomps his fuking arms off.

 

Jota's just been to good to leave out imo

He's earned it by being fantastic.

He gives the defence and midfield something to thread a high ball or pass to.
He will scare city just being on the field
100000% Jota must start

 

Bobby will start and probably do mothing except lose the ball trying fancy flicks, etc. Jota on 65th minute and will tear City to pieces, hopefully by then we are not to adrift with the scoreline to get something out of the game.

 

As much as it should be Jota, I think Bobby will start too.

 

oops

 

Same feeling here

 

Normally I;d be confident we'll do well here, very confident
Ever since empty stadiums, things have changed tho imo and an "any result" dice throw is now more possible than before

 

My guess is that Pep will prepare City as though Bobby will start, so there's something to be said for Jota starting just to wrong foot them if nothing else.

That being said, I too think Bobby will start

 

It's a risk imo.

You risk sending the wrong message to the squad and Jota. If he doesn't start considering his form and then Bobby's.

Its also a risk because if you show faith again and start Bobby over jota and like someone said above he spends 60mins doing things that ain't working and gets hauled off for Jota anyway that's two players moral that could be negatively affected.

Whereas starting Jota and bringing on Bobby, shows Jota "there's your reward for form lad do ya thing" and Bobby "go on and win us the game cos you're special and we need some magic" boosts both imo potentially.

Maybe I'm thinking about it too much

 

Your reasoning has good foundation, and I felt the same, but I think commitment to the team, Klopp, the club and the plan should override that.

 

I reckon even if Jota doesn't start, he's still ecstatic about his LFC career so far.

 

Yh so do I unfortunately.

Big game tho and Bobby likes an occasion.

 

Who knows, Bobby might shine, and I dont mean only his teeth

 

Lets hope so mate just about to bang the spurs game on until they take the lead then I'll Fuc it off

 

so if Matip isn't considered ready i assume Phillips will get the nod ahead of Williams based on Klopp comments before the WHam game .

 

Fixed

 

Not heard anything yet tbh
