      Would like to start with Origi then bring Minamino on after 60-70 mins

      Mane's boots are big ones to fill.  Most obvious choice would be Origi as I think Minamino needs a bit of time to settle.  I'd be more up for playing him in the game at Anfield - bit less of a cauldron.

      At least Mo won't have to worry about pissing Sadio off when he doesn't pass to him tonight.  Should free him up a bit to concentrate on getting the goals.

      I said before the Wolves game I'd take 4 points from the next two away games (as I had them down as banana skins for different reasons) and I'm sticking with that.

      I'd start with Minamino but be ready to sub on Origi if he's still not finding the tempo of the game, this game should be much more suited to him though as we should have a lot more possession than we did against Wolves.

      I would play Origi as I said because his directness is needed.

      I agree, if he was played through the middle but on the wings he to often goes missing.

      Not for me he's looked a bit lost and needs a bit more time.

      I would go the other way, Origi to start then Minamino if not working.

      I think his defensive work is good as well.

      He certainly does but cut from the left-wing onto his right will be needed.

      I think his defensive work is good as well.

      He's brilliant doing it too, yes.

      Well it sure isn't a walk in the park but shouldn't cause that much worry, it may not be pretty but thats what big teams do, win the ugly way too.

      Worst case scenario, after full time tonight, we are only 16 points clear. Fully expect us to win however, have predicted 1-2 in the league.

      Im now thinking its a MF 3 of Fab-Hendo-Gini with Ox-Bobbi-Mo up front

      Since Fabinho played Sunday, I was wondering if Jürgen might go Hendo, Gini and Keita, with Ox in a front three.

      I much prefer Ox in midfield but Jürgen seems comfortable with him playing forward at times. Would be nice to get Naby back in  now that he's trained a few more days.

      It will probably just be Ox in midfield and Divock at forward, but it's nice to have options.

      Take heart man. Close your eyes and imagine Hendo and Gini taking the game by the scruff of the neck, totally flustering any attempted West Ham attacks, then Trent and Robbo serving ball after enticing ball into the area for another Liverpool win.

      Barring that, shoot a beer and you'll feel better.

      I know what you mean.

      but naby is a bit off, still not sure if hes fully fit, Id love it if Naby got the nod, just dont see it.

      Bringing Fab back, frees hendo up which then frees the ox up.

      Someone is due a real doing from us, we create so many chances we could be winning by 4 or 5 every game. lets hope tonight is one of those. :)

      Always a tricky game away at West Ham.

      Like the Wolves game the other week, it won't be a bad point if we draw.

      Got some big injuries going forwards though at the moment.

      Felipe Anderson and Yarmakenko out which are two of their better players. Snodgrass a doubt and Masuaku who's a threat at full back injured too.

      With Moyes this will be a defensive line up whoever plays and he has had limited success with it against big teams in the past.

      After his shocking performance at the weekend, I’d be shocked if Fab starts. Reckon it will be Origi in the front 3 and then Ox, Hendo, Gini midfield.
