      I am not too optimistic because of Rafa. The man knows how to set up and defend.

      Agreed. Sorry Rafa, we will still going to win this.  :aaliverpool2xt1: :aaliverpool2xt1: :aaliverpool2xt1:

      These are absolutely sh!te (not because of rafa, they just haven't got good enough players largely because the chairmans a c***).

      We will smash them to pieces, we'll get between 3 and 5, they'll get between 0 and 1.

      I've gone for 4-0.

      I keep predicting we're gonna win games so  Shelvey scores a last minute winner,assuming he's not suspended this week.A nice dour 0-0 will do.

      Would expect Firmino to start, law of averages says a goal's coming ? :)
      If Danny wants to break into the side, he needs to make the most of any time he gets from Jürgen,
      Don't think they're great at the back, there's goals in this for us.

      Same time, you have to think Rafa will have them fully charged, so would expect them to get stuck in,
      Hopeful our quality will show thro, particularly with Coutinho getting back his sharpness.

      Looking forward to it, seeing Rafa and Klopp together will be nice too.

      We need to win this in any way possible. Rafa searches and studies for any potential weakness. We need to score heavily tomorrow.

      How about starting to build some consistency in the back 5.

      Pick what you feel is the strongest Jürgen and play them every game rotating only if necessary through injury or if they are totally drained which shouldn't really happen.

      Maybe they can start getting used to each other a bit.

                                Ward

      TAA       Gomez       Matip   Robertson

      Salah    Henderson  Milner   Moreno

                    Coutinho
       
                                      Mane

      That's worth seeing at some point this season Brian. Not sure if we ever will though.

      Can see Rafa telling his players to become long ball merchants for this one..

      Corners & set pieces my concern but we have plenty to outplay them..

      4-1.

      So...Coutinho and Can as holding midfielders? The only way you functionally get our so-called Fab 4, plus Sturridge (Billy Preston on "Get Back", Eric Clapton on "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"???) on the park at once is a 4-4-2 and even then it is a very questionable central midfield and would totally change what Jürgen likes to do with his fullbacks.

      By the way, in your sig, I think you meant to say "Live, BreathE..." unless you really want to say "Live Breath" like "Your breath is alive" which maybe it is after eating onions or Doritos or something.

      No he's playing Can only as holding midfielder.

      Do we need 2 against Newcastle ?

                   Ward
      Gomez Matip Lovren Robertson
             Hendo Can
      Salah  Coutinho  Mane
               Sturridge

      Attack being best form of defense.
      Really looking forward to this one.

      If that dickhead Shelvey plays he WILL throw himself about in midfield with his studs up so I hope the ref has a bit of bottle and sorts him out otherwise it could get ugly.
      I love Rafa to bits and the atmosphere in the ground will be ace tomorrow but his team are sh*te!

      No excuses tomorrow I'm afraid.

      Think this looks the best option considering the opposition.
      We desperately need an early goal to draw them out of their own box. They won't play damage limitation from a goal down, and once they venture forward, we should be able to pick them off.
      Massive for us, as corresponding results today, could see us end the day in 8th or 4th.
      I'm assuming our finishing can only improve, so on the strength of that,
      I'm going for a 1:3 win, and see us into 4th.

      Huge, huge game in terms of keeping in touch with the top.
      Must win, must must win !
