Burnley 2-0 Liverpool: In game and post match debate

Turf Moor





Starting XI: Mignolet, Clyne, Lovren, Klavan, Milner, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Lallana, Firmino, Coutinho, Sturridge.

Subs: Manninger, Can, Origi, Matip, Moreno, Stewart, Grujic

 James Milner and Daniel Sturridge start against Burnley this afternoon as Jürgen Klopp makes two changes to his Liverpool side at Turf Moor.

The Englishmen replace Alberto Moreno and Sadio Mane in the team as the Reds seek to follow up their win at Arsenal last weekend with another victory.

Captain Jordan Henderson is again joined by Georginio Wijnaldum and Adam Lallana in midfield, while Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino will support Sturridge.

No Moreno... Come on reds

Sturridge!!!! Lovely

I love Sturridge and he will be raring to score but if I was Origi with that pre-season, I will feel a little frustrated.

Agreed, but Origi just needs to be patient, his time will come

I like that team

Yes, totally.

Calm down guys, Origi is on the bench and will come on for sure. I don't see Sturridge playing 90 mins. There is also the chance he will come on for Firmino or Coutinho.

Good team. No excuses.

1-0 to the Reds. Expecting it to be tough. Gotta be alert at both ends.

That team in all honesty should belt burnley course.

My only concern is midfield which really needs to do much better. Hopefully Danny will show us that he has lost none of his incredible finishing ability and will get his first of many this season.

No mistakes ... three points please.



   

First opportunity he gets, Klopp puts Milner at left back.

Guess he doesn't really rate Moreno that highly after all.

I was okay with midfield, my concern is we are a bit low on attacking subs. We only have one on the bench which means we may have to change formation in the game at some point. Mane and Ojo being injured and Benteke sold has left us a little thin in the final third.

Fair enough.  I'll hold my hands up and admit I was wrong

The encouraging thing is that our new manager has a knack for getting the best out of the players at his disposal, even in unorthodox roles!!

I'm up in Bar Harbor working this weekend and will only catch the first half hour of the match.

Last time I watched a match up here was when I was living here in 2010 and owl was in charge. Deary me we are in better times!

hopefully when Gomez gets back he can take up left back to keep Moreno off sub bench.

Yep, still have doubts about our midfield in terms of possession and defensive play (screening back 4).

As for our attack, I hope Firmino will be more ascending than descending, need his magic in and around the box, that is where he's the most dangerous.

Never in doubt that one. The siiue now is we have Milner who has admitted doesnt like the role playing at left back.

All a lot of nonsense that could just be avoided by buying one this week.

come on lads, no mercy. 3 points.

Here we go  !

Toxic Thunder!

F**k off

What the F**k is Clyne doing there?!!
