Pre-Match: Liverpool V PSG (18/09/18 - 20:00)

Should be a great match. Im predicting a very fast start by the Reds, go 2-0 up and control the match.
Final score 3-1. Hoping for Salah to find some goals tonight to boost his confidence.

I had put 1-1 in the prediction league but I can’t, in good conscience, go in to a game expecting a draw so I’ve went 2-1 instead. Buzzing for tonight, will miss the build up and first half hour unfortunately. Hopefully we are out of sight by that point.

Checking in! Score prediction I went 2-2.

Should be fun watching at my desk. I plan to get my workload completed well before 2:45 EST so I can kick back and watch without being too distracted.

Been thinking about the changes Jürgen may make and its probable Henderson starts,
Although not everyone's cup of tea we need to have a bit more faith as obviously Jürgen has in him, i think there will always be a question mark against him, as there was last season but he to be fair came to the party and played his part, so therefore no reason he can't do so again,


Having said all that if things did change my personal preference would be keeping the solid back 5, Fabinho in front with Milner on the left to help Robbo, and Gini on the right helping Trent,  if Bobby is indeed a absentee I'd go with Sturridge in between Salah & Mane, with all three rotating, see how it goes first half, and if needs be replace Sturridge with the Shaq after the break,

Still believe the frogs will sh*t themselves, and croak at the atmosphere of Anfield,  Tuchel to be hopping mad at FT, after some slimey decisions,  and we will all be ecstatic witnessing the Spawning of this season's CL campaign 😁😁😁😁

3-1 Mighty Redmen

I am not so confident even though we are Anfield. PSG have a really good team and a proper coach in Tuchel now (compared to Unai Emery). I would be happy with a draw as Salah and Firmino (if he plays) have not yet got going. We have 'the thighs' and Sturridge as option but they are not as good as Bob.

Tuchel was the chap at Dortmund wasn't he, remind me how he got on? I genuinely feel our team has more balance now than PSG and I'd pit our attack against there's anyday. The big question mark still is midfield, especially if we start Hendo with Milner. I'd stick with the same midfield as against Spurs or possibly bring in Fabinho if we need a bit more protection for the defence.

I am being a bit cautious because Klopp has hinted Hendo will return to the midfield. For some reason, Milner suffers a lot when Henderson plays. The likely option is to drop Milner and pair Henderson with Gini, which seems strange as they have both been playing as a #6 this season. I could have a narrow view on this but if the rumours are right and Hendo is starting, unless our front 3 hit form better than in the league so far I would estimate there is 2 goals against PSG for us. PSG are no walkovers and I can estimate we will spend around 35% in our own half. If Klopp wants to play Henderson I would think it is because he thinks there is a threat between our midfield and defence and has instructed our CB not to go forward, but our midfield to drop back. In the past we have set up defensive when guarding a lead, but I am not convinced it is a method suited to us. I prefer attacking football.. however there is the risk of being caught on the counter and with people like Neymar, they only need to get in the box and go to ground... lets face it half these referees want to give penalties for nothing against us, then hand out yellow cards when people dislocate shoulders. At the end of the day, if the Hendo rumours are true we are sacrificing substantial creativity for some defensive security.

5 times you mention Henderson in one post non of them positive. Get help FFS.
If Klopp picks Henderson he does so because he sees in him a player who will carry out his instructions on the pitch why is that so hard for you to understand. Its not about him being brilliant or otherwise its because the Manager feels his team will be stronger with him in it and if he doesn't pick him its because he feels his team will be stronger without him in this particular fixture.

I swear some posters actually want us to lose just so they've got an excuse to keep digging at the captain.

It's F***ing pathetic.

I’m genuinely surprised you read his post. It’s just waffle to me.

True and weird as F**k.

I think Henderson will come back in tonight and possibly for Naby.

I think Jürgen might want to keep it tight in midfield and go Hendo, Milner and Gini.

I went for a 4  0 win for the Reds. Hope that I am not being over optimistic !

2 DM's is Xmas dinner to you, please explain?

You don't think Hendo is capable of playing the Milner role?

Christ I hope not, we'll get nuked in midfield if he does that and the forwards will have no service.

I hope you're being pessimistic ;-)

You don't think Hendo is capable of playing the Milner role?

Which role would that be, #8? In that case No I don't think he can do Milner's job. I think Hendo is an ok #6 but he needs creative players around him.

And Milner is creative?

And Milner is creative?

Creates loads of chances and assists.

So yeah, he is.
