With Studge 'distracted' for the time being, Solanke will be wondering if he's going to make the bench.......the lads on fire at the moment
Assuming the defence* & attack pick themselves my guess at the MF is Keita,Gini,Milner as i assume,much to Jims great joy, that Henderson won't be risked due to his injury. * Unless Klopp rests Gomez with PSG in mind.
I would presume that a) gomez need a rest. he's got an achilles problem. lovren played for Croatia. b) Henderson is not out par se as England didn't play him but he must be not right. so... we really shouldn't play him. c) all other first 11 players are fully fit d) Keita is ?
Klopp: We've improved a lot - and there's more to come Jürgen Klopp feels Liverpool have made significant progress in the last year - but the boss has pledged that there is more still to come from his side this season. A trip to Watford on Saturday marks the resumption of the Reds’ campaign following the international break. They head to Vicarage Road unbeaten in the Premier League so far this term and second in the table, with their 12 games so far yielding 30 points. By contrast, after a dozen top-flight fixtures in 2017-18, Liverpool were eight points worse off in fifth place. And, thanks to impressive wins over Paris Saint-Germain and Red Star Belgrade at Anfield, their Champions League fate remains in their own hands going into the final two group-stage matches, despite away defeats against Napoli and Red Star. As such, Klopp is sure that strides forward have been taken over the previous 12 months. That assertion does not mean he is completely satisfied, however. “We can improve - we have to and we will. But between our best football and now, we have to win football games. That’s how it is and that’s what we’ve done already,” the manager said at a gala dinner in support of the LFC Foundation. “There’s absolutely no reason for criticising the boys, they do a really good job. So many things are better than last year: defending is better, set-pieces are better; we are much more mature in games, game management is better. So many things are better. “Last year at the same time, we didn’t have 20 good games - we lost at Tottenham in October. In the Champions League, we were flying, that’s true. Belgrade, by the way, there is no excuse for that - it was just a really bad game. And Napoli was not a really good game as well. “So there were two days we were really not good, that’s true. All the other games were really good. We played against PSG; they have lost one game in the whole season in all competitions and that was against us. “It’s all good, I like the season. There has been a lot of improvement so far and there is still space for further improvement. But a very intense period is coming up now.” https://www.liverpoolfc.com/news/first-team/326058-jurgen-klopp-liverpool-form-performancesJürgen Klopp
possible but think he'll probably on bench but JK does keep mixing up the MF this season so who knows .
Would like Shaqiri to start (don't ask who is not starting) he can unlock stubborn defence. Watford are unlikely to sit back that is an advantage for us. We are going to win but not certain of keeping a clean sheet.
Be Milner or Keita if shaqiri is playing. We definitely need widji but other 2 positions could be any of the 3.
