Mane may be out for the season according to Klopp today. Can missing training is a pretty big deal in Klopp's selection process, plus we don't do so well when there are three matches in a week anyway.
Lucas was excellent Saturday but I'm not crazy about him playing again so soon. With Hendo and Lallana already out, seems we are very likely to have at least one new face in the starting midfield (I presume TAA would get the nod if that is the case).
Firmino should stay in the center of a front three as we lose too much from him when deployed out wide. Origi's best position may also be in the center, but he is more useful to us out wide than Bobby is. I am worried about the two Brazilians as well re fixture congestion between Intl. duty and this week's schedule.
BUT, fighting spirit can carry the day for us if we show it. I think tomorrow will be more about guts and goo than woo and hoo.
(I'm not sure what that means either, but I think the message is conveyed
).
