      Stoke 1-2 Liverpool: In game and Post Match discussion
      Apr 08, 2017 01:59:42 pm









      The sun is actually shining in Stoke and it's not windy. Remarkable scenes - J. Pearce







      Starting XI: Mignolet, Clyne, Lovren, Klavan, Matip, Milner, Can, Wijnaldum, Alexander-Arnold, Woodburn, Origi

      Subs: Karius, Moreno, Grujic, Sturridge, Firmino, Lucas, Coutinho

       Ben Woodburn and Trent Alexander-Arnold begin as Liverpool make three changes for this afternoon’s Premier League clash with Stoke City.

      The Academy graduates come into the line-up at the bet365 Stadium along with Joel Matip, meaning Woodburn makes his first ever top-flight start and Alexander-Arnold only his second.

      Roberto Firmino and Lucas Leiva drop down to the bench, while Philippe Coutinho has been passed fit enough to join them among the substitutes after illness.

      This going to be interesting. Klopp either a genius (I think he is) or mad drunk German in no man's land.

      Totally unexpected but I like it, we had to shake things up. Nothing that Stoke would have been expecting and still got 3 match changers on the bench.

      Not sure if that's 3 center halves, or Klavan LB with Milner in midfield.

      Clearly he wasn't impressed after Bournemouth.

      Roll the dice Jürgen!

      Until now, we have only seen the normal from Klopp. He had to do something about the situation and full marks to him for having the balls. Now let's hope he is proven right and the youngsters repay his faith.

      With origi in means Firminho expected to wide which he is more ineffective and must think better option is Woodburn unless  carrying. Stoke away will test the mettle of him and TAA lets see what your made of boys

      The only big issue is firmino on the bench, coutinho obviously not 100% and sturridge isn't anywhere ready to start a match and lucas's legs are an issue

      I don't get the formation, is it 4-4-2 with Milner in midfield or 5-3-2 or 5-3-1-1. I like that Klopp shakes things up though, we have to try something different, just hope the youngsters grab their chance.

      Exactly, if we win he'll be hailed as a genius (which he already is in my eyes) or complete villain if we lose.

      He has balls, he's obviously been impressed during training.

      Perhaps the idea is to switch it around so that rather than hang on at the end i.e. Bournemouth, we try to hang on at the start and bring on the lads to grab the goals?  ;)

      Hoping the young Woodburn will have an amazing starting debut!! 3-0 will do, then bring on the boys.

      My plan B included Sturridge.

      Can't even get a game when there is no Firmino, Coutinho, Lallana, Henderson....  xxxxx:action-smiley-065: Danny!
