I would imagine more than anything Roister will start the game as Can cant really hold the midfield by himself yet.

I reckon it will be something like this for tonight.

I assume the otehr Gomez twin is fit? Why did you mean?

Yea I was unsure when I put down Can but all I meant is that we have a good deal of players that have frequently played together and they shouldnt have "gelling" as an excuse for under performing if that should happen.

Id like Firmino to step up tonight as he has had a few games to get use to the team and tactics and now he needs to start showing what he can do

Agent Coulson

Subs; Bogdan, Lovren, Gomez, Can, Lallana, Firmino, Ings

That bench of players cost £100m.

I know its crazy what we have spent and on what, but its done now so no point worrying about their value. We should just focus on how best to use the "squad" and not try to fit the more expensive players into the team.

In fact People should stop this theory about Brendan not playing the "committee transfers". How many times did Sakho and Moreno play last year? Even when they made mistakes. But this year they arent playing so they are classed as "committee transfers".

Roll on 6 o clock ffs Im frustrated

Agreed, there's too many wannabe accountants on here.

rob316

I'm looking forward to the match anyway, hope to see some players really push for a premier league starting spot. Europa League should be a good thing for a squad this size.

Its starting to turn into the Carra era again where we will all dream of a dream of gomez's

rob316

Sturridge expected to make the bench for the Norwich game, Rodgers will have no choice but to play 2 strikers then. I'm praying he has put his injuries behind him with this corrective hip surgery, what a player we have if he can stay fit.

Agent Coulson

3rd captain.

Team.

BullBlackNova

I didn't expect him to do it, but I really, really wanted two up top.

Maybe he is going for a defensive approach in the away tie and will commit a few more forward in the home games.

Or maybe he is picking the line-up out a hat.

JB81

Looking forward to this now.
Especially looking forward to seeing how Origi does, providing he starts that is.
Really think he showed enough in the World Cup to provide us with some hope that he could be a major asset to us. May not have set the French League alight but the standard of the Lille team and their tactics I do believe hindered him

Turtyturd

Doesn't say much for meh, if Origi is getting the nod.

rob316

FFS I wanted to see 2 up top.

Agent Coulson

The manager knows best he sees the players in training every day.

Magico Gonzalez

Wanted to see one of Can or Leonard Rossiter on the bench, play a diamond or some variety of 4-4-2 with origi and ings up front.

jcsoulinger

The most worrying thing about that line up is Toure, Llori going was really shortsighted if this is what we are reduced to at the back.

Agent Coulson

Bench: Bogdan, Firmino, Ings, Brannagan, Randall, Cleary, Chirivella

Speckydodge

Toure has never left us down

Speckydodge

Really like to see Chirivella get some minutes, serous talent that lad

Turtyturd

West Brom.

jcsoulinger

Hope I'm wrong but it could be three at the back with Ibe and Moreno on the wings, that would be way too negative but the fear is so great now nothing would surprise me.

Iused2likebusts

At least we have a left footed player on the left. Very important moreno plays well today.

SlickRic

1. i've no idea why Ings is only on the bench.

2. i've no idea what Joe Gomez has done to deserve to be burned out so quickly. good Christ.

it'd be hilarious if Sakho single handedly got us a result tonight, then still got dropped at the weekend.

Ings obv being rested for the Norwich game!

5starpool

Obviously Origi's stellar scoring record in France last season is why he is getting the nod.

No excuse, he's hardly featured this season so he should be starting.

Beyond being in danger of conceding goals three game in a row? Not a bad idea to take him out of the firing line.

it's quite silly that he hasn't been.

Harry Palmr

You've lost me now - are you angry he is not playing or that he has started every game bar this?

Christ Rodgers has me more confused than he is! I was looking on the wrong flank!

Agent Coulson

A game against Norwich in the league is now considered a big game and players need to be rested for it.

The team has been playing like shít, should be glad there have been changes made.

marklazarcovic

still playing like crap

Osmosis Jones

No more 3 at the back please

5starpool

In the last 18 games (not including tonight's no score so far) we have scored more than 1 goal on only 2 occasions. We've only scored more than 2 goals 1 time in 2015.

Disgraceful.

Agent Coulson

If we had a manager who actually knows what he's doing I think most of the players in the squad would be ok.

mosstin

I do wonder what FSG are waiting for.

Agent Coulson

Rodgers relying on Coutinho wonder strikes to keep his job.

Harry Palmr

Why won't Ibe run infield with the ball? Origi needs to work the channels as being in the middle means he is so isolated.

Agent Coulson

Honestly I'd take Gary Monk at this stage.

'The Rodgers' claim to fame is going to be making Coutinho good enough for Barcelona.

Rodgers has that unique ability to turn decent players into awful ones.

Bandana boy

when was the last time we heard this much noise from an Anfield crowd

I'm in agreement. We still might not get to the CL with the sides ahead of us, but we'd certainly an improvement in the standard of the play. At the minute, it's all square pegs in round holes.

mosstin wrote: »

They just removed his backroom staff, spent €100m this summer - that was them saying 'forget last season, start again and get it right' as far as I can tell. For the fans, last season still hurts so we won't be giving him the same wiggle room but for FSG, it would be a bit silly to show a sign of faith in the man as they did and to then pull the trigger just 5 games into the new season.

I don't agree with them, but surely that's their thinking.

klose

Ibe is regressing so much this season, lallana needs the game to slowed to a snails pace to be effective. Very frustrating.
