yeah, it's a tough one due to location etc so for me we should go with jota anyway and gakpo is fit so my opinion.

we have to look at the games coming here and we go away in europa to Austria so need to get keep our focus on the amounts of games coming

Rest the main players then, just play the reserves and/or youngsters

Just randomly pick a formation and who plays in it

Tactics be damned.

I asked Alexa to pick a random number 2-5 she gave me a three. I did it again she said 4... I then said a number 1-3 and she said 3.


Using the random power of Alexa to pick formation I'm suggesting a 3-4-3 formation.

I then asked her to pick a random Liverpool player to play in goal and she answered "the league cup". Damn you Alexa.

It's pretty solid, it might stop a couple.
 
CHRIS SIUTTON HAS GONE FOR COMFORTABLE AWAY WIN 0: 2

Wolves v Liverpool (12:30)
I said a few weeks ago that I think Liverpool are going to be Manchester City's closest challengers this season and things do seem to be coming together for them.

Keeping hold of Mohamed Salah despite the interest from Saudi Arabia was massive. The Reds' forward line is formidable and I like the look of their new midfield too.

Wolves are not playing badly, and were a bit unlucky to lose to Crystal Palace before the international break, but I don't see them keeping Liverpool out.

Sutton's prediction: 0-2

Midas the Jagaban's prediction: I don't think this will be much of a challenge for Liverpool. 1-2

JONES KNOWS SKY SPORTS HAS GONE FOR A COMFORTABLE AWAY WIN TOO. 0 :3
Wolves vs Liverpool, Saturday 12.30pm
I'm starting to sense that Liverpool might just be the ones to put it up to Manchester City this season.


It isn't a view shared by the market, who have Arsenal favourites in the "without Man City" outright list at 11/8 with Sky Bet and Liverpool at 13/8. Yet, I'd be quite confident at this stage of having a match-bet at Evens with anyone for Liverpool to finish above Arsenal. Form an orderly queue.

That "purr" associated with all the great Jurgen Klopp teams has returned. It was on full show during their destructive dismantling of an albeit overrated but still dangerous Aston Villa side before the international break.
When Klopp's team play with such razzmatazz and ruthlessness in the final third, they can score two or three goals in a blink of an eye. To potentially have found that ability again to take games away from teams in a short period makes them such a dangerous outfit, capable of running riot at any point. That may happen here so the Liverpool -2 handicap looks good at 11/4 with Sky
SCORE PREDICTION: 0-3

Can’t see why Jones wouldn't start. Played last game and hasn’t been away with internationals.

this one is actually all about goals. As in last year we completely cocked up the start of the game, then dominated for 70mins missed 5 chances a blind beggar would score and then concede late to end it.

Oneill set up bournemouth the beat us away last year and they were also largely dominated in terms of possession and we lose 0-1 due to inability to score, missed a pen and caught on the break.

IMO this will be a deep lying set up form oneill with no space to run behind anyway so we need to focus on width and its absolutely crucial we do not concede first.

wolves results

Utd 1 - wolves 0. absolute robbery as wolves wer eby far the better side. classic lower half clash
Wolves 1 Brighton 4. They got smashed here and the late card had no impact. it was 4-0 before they scored.
Everton 0 Wolves 1 - another classic lower half clash.
Palace 3 Wolves 2. they went behind, equalized then conceded 2 late and had a final goal to narrow the deficit. Mad game.

Its very hard to know what they will do but IMO 451 is inbound and it will be up to us to create chances against that but also actually take one.

hopefully they fall to jota and not salah.
 
Dear oh ****ing dear. I can imagine Klopp's pre-game talk now: "It's Saturday lunchtime, we're missing 5 first-team regulars, the ref and the VAR team ****ing hate us, and they haven't watered the pitch of over-long grass. Let's just try and keep the score down. :(

Quansah to come on for Matip
Gravenberch to come on for jones (on grounds of more familiar with systems as endo has to start)
Diaz to come on for Jota
nunez (who knows if he will or not)


Really i don't see this as being terrible. If anything is stops us being fancy and playing inverted toenails or whatever.
