      Pre match : Liverpool v Sevilla : 13th Sept : 19:45

      Time to forget and get that dismal performance at the weekend out of the system.

      So we are back rubbing shoulders and feasting with the big boys of Europe.
      European nights at Anfield are something special to experience and it seems like ages so time to get revenge against these.

      Seems like Klopp has gone with Karius for the CL games.
      I would take TAA out of the firing line and although Gomez is not as good a full back he is defensively more disciplined and gives our dodgy back line more height against set pieces.
      Moreno was not the worst of our defensive issues but I think Robertson looks better defensively, otherwise why have we splashed £8M if he can't replace Moreno!

      Midfield is a real conundrum will Coutinho be brought back and who out of the 3 incumbents deserves to start after the City game?

      Karius
      Gomez
      Matip
      Lovren
      Robertson

      Hendo
      Ox
      Coutinho

      Salah
      Firmino
      Mane

      Don't forget, HScRed1, we're playing at home, so Wijnaldum should play :p

      I'd go same team as City except bring in Gomez and Robertson. Not sure if starting Coutinho is the right way to about it.

      I fully expect us to come bouncing back in this one, but I really do want to see Robertson instead of Moreno for added defensive abilities. I have no problem with having TAA on the right, he had a sh*t game against Citeh, but so did the whole team.
      The only player I want to see dropped is Hendo, replaced by Coutinho, I'd then have Can playing in the "DM" role.

      I think we'll win this, especially as Mane will still be pissed off at the Red card and will have a point to prove.

      Would probably rest Bobby, Gini and Can for this

      Studge
      Mane - Salah
      Milner - Hendo - Chamberlain
      Robertson - Lovren - Matip - Gomez
      Karius

      Subs- Mig, Moreno, Klavan, Grujic, Cou, Solanke, Firmino

      F**k me, so we are defending and hoping we can cling onto a draw then are we? That midfield has F**k all creativity in it, Milner and Hendo should never ever be in the midfield at the same time, plus Sturridge can't do 90 minutes, not on his own. The defence is ok though but I'd have TAA instead of Gomez.

      If we are playing Coutinho in midfield, I would prefer two midfielders. Can, Hendo or Wijnaldum, but with the #8 a more deeper role than usual ish. More protection = more freedom for our attacking players.

      Probably keep Ox on the bench for this. Would be looking for him to be starting in Mane's position when he's suspended. Probably give the defence a shake up and get Coutinho back. Think Klopp's said that Karius is the starting GK for the Champions League as well? (One of the strangest new things I've seen in football that - changing the keeper for CL)

      Karius; Gomez, Matip, Lovren, Robertson; Can, Gini, Coutinho; Salah, Firmino, Mane

      Subs: Migs, Klavan, TAA, Hendo, Woodburn, Sturridge, Ox.

      Based on Jürgen's general approach I'd be surprised if Phil starts - I'd play Gini to start with (Can can warm the bench - did you see what I did there ;)?)

      Comfortable with Gomez but personally probably keep TAA in and give him chance to get back on the horse......

      I get that mate - was more meaning that in the past he's preferred to introduce "injured" players (including Phil in the past I recall) from the bench initially on their rehab.......

      Seems to me whatever else he does think of Phil's antics he does believe he's missed at least 3 wk training.....

      Beat them and beat them well.

      If we want to get out of this group then I think we will have to win all of our home games.

      Seems a question, can our attack, score more than our defence let in. Gone for a score draw in the Prediction League. Although a win for the Reds would be even better.
