Sheffield United 0-2 Liverpool: In game and Post Match discussion

Bramall Lane hosting the Champions






Starting XI: Adrian, Alexander-Arnold, Phillips, Kabak, Robertson, Wijnaldum, Thiago, Jones, Salah, Firmino, Mane

Subs: Ojrzynski, Hughes, Milner, Keita, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Shaqiri, Origi, R. Williams, N. Williams.

Adrian and Nathaniel Phillips start for Liverpool in this evening’s Premier League clash with Sheffield United.

With Alisson Becker absent on compassionate grounds, Adrian begins in goal at Bramall Lane.

Phillips, meanwhile, is the only other change the Reds make from last weekend’s Merseyside derby as he replaces the injured Jordan Henderson.

James Milner is back on the bench after returning to fitness as well as Academy goalkeepers Jakub Ojrzynski and Liam Hughes.

Diogo Jota doesn’t make the matchday squad due to illness.

CORY

Gini captain, hope it brings out the best in him

I know there will be a meltdown if we don't win tonight but come on. No Ali, Virgil, Gomez, Matip, Fab or Hendo. Every member of the defensive spine out.

Hope our attackers can do some damage.

Adrian

Who is Hughes? Is Davies out injured?

Jota is ill ....... 😂

Come on Reds, let's gain the three points and moves on.

Why on Earth, Davies is not instead one of the youth keepers. Is he that bad?

Where is Davies pretty sure we signed a CB called Davies 

No Jota or Davies in the squad.

Starting eleven need to do the job today, nothing we can really bring on from the bench to change it.

Feels like I'm preparing to do a 12 hour shift down the mine preparing for this one.

Best of luck Liverpool - I despise injuries.

Well a couple of the results have gone well for us hope we do our job

Who is Hughes or is it a typo?

Believe he is injured 🤕

Believe he is injured 🤕

Hearing rumours suspected appendicitis  for Jota could be bullshit but you really wouldn't be surprised would you

Only heard a stomach issue but yep it wouldn’t surprise me at all


It’s amazing when you consider the level of injuries that we are still fighting


206 games combined missed through injury

The next highest is 102 - Leicester

Why not Kelleher?

Anyway, I hope Jürgen does play lower to help both - the defense (less chance of fast counter attacks for them) and the offense (more chance for counter attacks from us).

Feels like I'm preparing to do a 12 hour shift down the mine preparing for this one.

Best of luck Liverpool - I despise injuries.

Me too - horrible feeling

Why not Kelleher?

 

Injured as well I think

Feel down already  and not kicked off yet
Things I wanted for this game
Alison to play -No
Jota to be on bench-No
Keita to start -No
Davies to start - No
Liverpool to win - ?? Please ,please let me have one wish 🙏
