      Liverpool 2-1 Aston Villa: In game and Post Match discussion
      Apr 10, 2021 02:06:26 pm






      Roberto Firmino and James Milner start for Liverpool in this afternoon’s Anfield encounter with Aston Villa.

      The Reds make two changes for the Premier League fixture, with the duo replacing Naby Keita and Sadio Mane in the XI.

      Curtis Jones misses out as a precaution due to a muscle issue.

      Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Phillips, Kabak, Robertson, Fabinho, Milner, Wijnaldum, Salah, Jota, Firmino.

      Subs: Adrian, Thiago, Keita, Mane, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Tsimikas, Shaqiri, Davies, R. Williams.

      Hmm. Not a fan of that midfield. Thought we’d change more tbh. Shame Jones is injured but doubt he’d have played anyway (I’d have played him)

      Cannot see Ox staying this summer when a 35yo keeps getting starts ahead of him.

      Glad to see Mane ride the bench and is Klopp intent on burning Robbo out?

      Tsimikas must be absolutely sh*te in training if we still can't give Robbo a break.

      Shame Jones is injured as I'm not big on that midfield.

      Expect Milner to drop at LB second half to give Robbo a breather . Midfield a bit stodgy but maybe needed after Wednesday

      I really feel we're crying out for a tweak in our shape with 2 holding in midfield and an extra attacker. Salah up top with Sadio, Bobby and Jota behind him. That's just me with my Football Manager head on😏

      As others have said Tsimikas must be F***ing horrific cos robbo has looked absolutely knackered for weeks.

      I'm wondering whether it might be more like 2 up front today with Jota and Salah?

      The Reds make two changes for the Premier League fixture, with the duo replacing Naby Keita and Sadio Mane in the XI.

      Curtis Jones misses out as a precaution due to a muscle issue.

      Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Phillips, Kabak, Robertson, Fabinho, Milner, Wijnaldum, Salah, Jota, Firmino.

      Subs: Adrian, Thiago, Keita, Mane, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Tsimikas, Shaqiri, Davies, R. Williams.

      I felt that I couldn't do it after last Tuesday.

      We need to win this one to gain confidence. That midfield I'm not a fan, but who knows?

      Jesus.

      Robbo starts again and not a huge fan of the midfield either.

      Don’t like the fact Robbo isn’t getting a rest, feel like it’s gonna end in a injury sooner or later, and that midfield leaves a lot to be desired to be honest.

      Oxlade is done at this club unfortunately.

      That's how I see it as well.

      No Thiago is disappointing as well. Just seems to be getting a good understanding going with Fabinho and now doesn't start two games in a row.

      As decent a start as I've seen from us at Anfield for a while.
