MOTD2 at 10.30, might tune in.

Muahahaha

I make it about 12 seconds from Trent taking the ball out of our box to Salah hitting the net, it was an absolute stunning counter attack

Wasn't pulling his punches but he'll be getting stick for that.

Yeah, its been a few weeks

Philips rarely does much wrong, just isn't a fancy CB. Play him as much as we need to and we'll get a good fee for him in the summer from one of the bottom half sides.

Indeed.

Will be eagerly tuning in with a Kraken Rum and coke or 3.
Not working tomorrow.
It's been the perfect birthday weekend

Any more takers on this now that we're another week on?

If Matip and Henderson are back I still say we go with the following:

Alisson
TAA-Matip-Phillips-Robertson
Fab
Henderson-Thiago
Salah-Firmino-Mane

Despite the injury crisis that is literally 10 of our best 11 all in their best positions, I'd much rather that than playing 3 or 4 of them out of position.

Happy 20th Birthday @fyfe79, hopefully things will be back to normal so you can celebrate the 21st next year!

The Mig

That’s a lovely win

The White Wolf

Klopp having a quality laugh on that defender question. Millie might be right about Hendo. :P

DJIMI TRARORE

So Ben Davis, Preston is the CH that is being mentioned, anyone seen him play

happyoutscan

So did anyone back my 3-1 scoreline tip?:pac:

BorneTobyWilde

Suarez 14 league goals, a goal every 85 minutes, wish we had him instead of Origi this season. Will fire Atlético Madrid to the league title.
10pt lead now with game in hand. I feel had he played for us this season we'd be 10 pts clear.

Shanee.

Na but the talk on this place is that he is decent, quick etc

Hold my hands up on this one; got it completely wrong.

Get them gifs out though.

Mo Salah is 19 goals away from being the highest scoring winger in PL history, surpassing Ryan Giggs’ tally of 109, but Salah has played 491 less games. HA

It's really hard to understand why Klopp kept picking Williams ahead of him, I know he wasn't eligible for the CL, but, really should be picked ahead of Williams whenever he's available.

yourdeadwright

Any word on Manes injury or when he will be back

rob316

It's big test for city next weekend, they've been on a great run,not conceding but they won't have faced anyone of the calibre of Salah, Firmino or mane.

Buddy97mm

Three outstanding goals, world class finishing from Mo for first two, but thought third was magnificent team goal - 34 passes I think, with every outfield player involved, before ball hits the net.

Mo Salah has now scored 90 Premier League goals.

That’s more than:
- Dennis Bergkamp (87)
- Eden Hazard (85)
- Cristiano Ronaldo (84)
- Eric Cantona (70)
- Luis Suarez (69)

Not bad for a one season wonder

Agent Coulson

Salah has 115 goals and 45 assists in 182 games and there is still fans that would sell him in the summer.

RugbyLover123

Would the lad from Preston really be much of an upgrade on Phillips?

It's all about getting enough cover at this stage,could do with three Nat Phillips at this stage with the injuries we have

Could be cheap cover for Phillips?

BorneTobyWilde

Not to beat Brighton on Wednesday would be shocking. But this is the season for shocks.

But we seriously need to win that game as a canter with a few goals. NO EXCUSES

BorneTobyWilde

And then Brighton score to take lead against Spurs................

their away record is good also.

Vicxas

Brighton play some really nice football

RugbyLover123 wrote: »

Probably not but they badly need another warm body in there. He’s cheap so it probably doesn’t eat into any budget for the Summer.

BorneTobyWilde

Playing so high at home only leads to a team with 11 behind the ball. Should be bit deeper, tempt teams out more.

I criticise the team as much as the next guy but the "fans' that go missing when they're winning is noticeable.

Iused2likebusts

2 great wins such a shame we have been so unlucky with injuries. We would be 10 points clear at this stage.

There's one in particular who only seems to show up when games are going badly.

Vicxas

Anyone have the low down on Davies? Any use?

SlickRic

Mohamed Salah.

Our fúcking King.

The talisman. The beacon. The human embodiment of this team under Jurgen Klopp. Cheeky. Direct. Unafraid to try something. Brilliant.

I love him more than most. I probably defend him unnecessarily when he's genuinely having an off day. But Jesus Christ he is the best player in the Premier League. And if he's not, it's only because he's not called Kevin De Bruyne.

A genius.

You have the likes of fúcking Souness continuing this annoying as fúck narrative that he's selfish, and using it as a reason that he might not be as loved as other members of the team. This is despite him creating more chances than anyone else on our team. And that is a fact.

He is the icon of this team. I hope he never leaves.

We don't win that game without him.

And let me tell you, there are plenty of games we wouldn't have won without him. We wouldn't have a European Cup or a Premier League without him either.

A complete fúcking legend.

magma69

Well I didn't expect that kind of victory. That was an absolutely terrific performance when you take everything into account. Shaqiri deserves to be starting regularly, he has elements to his game that no other player has.

ElTel

The spark is back in our play thank God. Maybe it's the stretch in the evenings. :pac:

We're still taking punches (Mane the latest and perhaps out of CL first leg as well as 3 PL games?) but we're still finding solutions.

I'm still catching up on thread and have got to OJs superb update. Much appreciated.

I absolutely loved Mane's slide celebration the other night against Spurs. Had me welling up. Usually an exuberant celebration, my favourite player (although I love Robbo too) put the inner satisfaction spin on it. Please consider it worthy of your skills OJ.

Shout out to Nat Phillips. Good again today and thought his passing was great especially against Spurs.

Brighton on Wednesday. Go on the Pool.

The six points dropped due to draws at Everton, Brighton and West Brom are what annoys me most.
What ever about the other games we Should have won those 3

He came across as a f*cking idiot saying that. Mind-boggling.

Is everyone in agreement that direct play i.e. less passes is the way forward?

Akabusi

Great win, great performance, teaches me not to be so pessimistic.
