      Mignolet will play, Gomez for me is our current best cb with matip out. A coutinho, Can, Gini midfield  I like as Gini works well as the between man for those 2. Can see salah on bench and having a front 3 of Manè, Ox and Firmino.

      Get a goal or 2 early and we'll get a cricket score. Give them something to hang on to and we will be in for a long night.

      All in my opinion of course ;D

      Fair enough, just annoyed by people mainly on twatter accusing Mané of being jealous of salah

      Was going to say earlier that there is a bit of rivalry for the right wing position. Mane and Salah both prefer the right side I believe. Don't think Mane is jealous. Mane would be free to roam across the front line but mostly operate down the left and swop with Salah during the game.

      May be the theory is Mane wanted to show he can finish off a run with a clean finish to show the boss he is "the man"...doubt it, just didn't look up and to score himself was being clinical ...unfortunately it slipped wide. Not winning didn't help his cause.

      Also Adam Lallana should see some action. He's fit and should get at least 45min.

      I rest Salah the whole game. Solanke is my man.

      Why?

      Yeah what is the deal with Lallana, is he not fully recovered yet, I thought he was back to training a few weeks ago.

      The Mane drama is typical of people who want a scape goat. As usual, Lovren got stick. Mignolet too (what for is anyone's guess). Mane... well... how dare he go for glory when he had a better option?

      Let's forget when Firmino did it, when Salah did it, all the times that Coutinho does it, and the legendary Suarez who was more selfish than anyone. But because we drew that game.. Mane is the target of the abuse. Yes, he should have passed the ball. He didn't. It will happen again with all of those guys, and it is not jealousy. It is football.

      I think we'll be back to the same usual starting lineup. Can't see Klopp taking any risks here.

      To be fair I reckon if that was Bobby through on goal the pass would have been made.

      I’d like four Gomez in defence. If possible. Even anyone can play in goal.

      Me or my nan (anyone but Migs that’s how sick I feel)

      Gomez
      Gomez
      Gomez
      Gomez

      Can
      Gini
      Coutinho

      Mane
      Salah
      Firmino

      No wind up. I’ve grown tired of Migs and Lovren. It’s really sad.

      Expecting Salah to get a rest this time around - and I'd say we're going to need him more for the two away games than this homer v West Brom.

      Surely Salah starts this one considering we took him off early on Sunday at 1-0? Should have played 90 at the weekend if he's getting a rest tomorrow.

      Think Salah will start too with Mane missing out this time. Then against Bournemouth, Salah will likely rest with Mane coming in for him. Hopefully we'll see the four of them away at Arsenal.

      Think we'll see a line-up similar to the one we saw against Spartak Moscow:



      Gomez over Trent for this one considering their aerial threat. Trent can play against Bournemouth with Gomez coming back in for the game against the Gunners.

      Injury updates:

      Matip is running again, but won't play against WBA.
      Lallana has been back in full training with the rest of the group. Klopp looking to build up game fitness again.

      Frankly, Mr Shankly

      Christ, the away dressing room has been given the greasy, sleazebag dirt full on this week what with Allardyce visiting on Sunday and Pardew tomorrow night. Hope the cleaners have a fire engine full of Domestos ready to detoxify that dressing room after final whistle tomorrow.

      Salah has a lot more minutes in his legs then Mane...Mane sat out the Brighton match and played Spartak then the Blueshite.

      Salah played Brighton, Spartak & Everton.

      Expecting Mane/Firmino/AOC up top on this one.

      Probably right mate. But Mane is a much better scorer and likely fancied himself there. Firmino would lack the self confidence.

      I was tired of them a year ago. Summer came and went.
      Of the 5 stages of grief - denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance - maybe I've hit the last one :(

      I'm not sure if I'll be pissed off or happy if we revert back to the Spartak starting eleven as it will just extend my confusion as to why we lined up the way we did in the derby..
      It's West Bromwich Albion for Christ sake....even their name is a f**king joke !
      Id've much rather we battered that shower of blue sh*te on Saturday then played Solanke up top tomorrow and rested the two Brazilians.
      I'm not suggesting that for one minute I'd rather surrender two points against West Brom but it was the f**king derby at Anfield and the team selection didn't work and it pissed me off ! end of.

      It better work tomorrow !..I wanna see a total annihilation of that slimy f**ker Pardew and his shithouse tactics.
      None of this leading 1-0 sh*t with 20 minutes left and having Lovren to defend long shithouse balls upfield.

      We don't wanna be going into Bournemouth and Arsenal away scratching for points..

      and more importantly I don't wanna see our boss after the game arguing with Sky about some wanky decision which cost us the 3 points.

      pre match rant over ! ;D

      Salah apparently felt his hammy a bit on sunday hence the sub, scan showed nothing but probably won't start. Bobby and phil were apparently in the red zone so were rested v the blueshite

      Yet all the yelling and screaming about the starting line-up and why Salah was pulled....again jumping to conclusions without knowing any facts.

      Following the cock up against the bitters, this game has become a bit more pressured. Have to go full strength (from who's fit) from the start, get it won, then rest who you need to. Park the bus second half if need be.

      He apparently went off early as a precaution for signs of a hamstring injury. I doubt he will play vs WBA.
