Liverpool FC Team Talk, Gossip, Rumours 2024/25

Is Curtis Jones out for long? He seems to struggle to stay fit. Isn’t it mad to think that there’s even a debate now about who our first choice LB should be considering my how good Robbo has been for us. I’d still have Robbo but Kostas deserves game time as well.

Careful mentioning things like our susceptibility to niggles and injuries. Youll get that Dutch guy ranting about Klopp and hamstrings again.

I'd be starting Ox in the next run of games against Porto, Southampton, Everton, Wolves, Milan & Villa and give him a chance to make the starting spot his own now.

I see the ball boy from the Barca game is in the Champions League squad and he is scoring goals for fun in the under 18 Premier League 12 goals in 8 games, I wonder could he get a few minutes in either of the next two games against Porto or AC Milan.

Thiago is doing the pre match press conference so that means he will be starting tomorrow night.

I'd start Ox again. Strike while the iron is hot with him, and in a bit of form and fit. Use him while you can. I don't think he wil start all of the next upcoming games, but if he stays fit, he could well play a part in a lot of them in the congested period. I think Klopp will look more to start Fabinho Thiago Hendo as his central midfield. It gives more control in games. Ox can play from the bench and he should start in Milan too. Probably the League Cup game also.

Mount been at Chelsea since what 7 or something no chance he leaves now not a hope in hell,

We need to give Mo & Mane new deals asap

Happily take Pulisic for the right price. He does appear injury prone though, not that they'd sell anyway or that we'd be interested.

Sounds like Robbo, Neco, Milner & Origi all trained today.

I wonder if the game is too soon for some of them? Neco & Origi should we'll start I'd say and if Milner is fit enough, it would be great. Give Robbo a small bit longer of a rest.

Great news for my fantasy team too.

You could argue that this is the same reason to but out a 2nd string team - too much money at steak to damage future games.

Result last night was as good as Ole in Paris. Give Carrick a five year contract! 😄

...

A "filling" you say

Tonight's game, the Milan game & the League Cup game will be nice opportunities to play some combos of senior / reserve players together to 'try out'. Which will be needed thought December & January when games come thick and fast.

It also gives an opportunity to try out front 3 combos ahead of the AFCON. we can't just start a new 3 together during that period and expect them to be playing with a relationship as strong as the regular front 3. Would have been nice to start Bobby, Taki & Jota tonight to get them used to playing with each other. For that reason, I'd nearly start Jota as the 1 from the regular 3 tonight, alongside Taki & Origi. At least get a Taki & Jota relationship going.

Nat Phillips has scored more PL goals than him.

Morton starts,what a night for him

Gomez still injured I presume?

Playing both Mane and Mo feels like overkill a bit, but with Div only coming back from injury and the main options of the kids being ineligible, I can understand it.

looks like Thiago as the 6, which is always a bit annoying - takes the sting out of his game. Unless Morton plays there, but that seems a big ask.

Honestly don't know how Edwards can sleep at night.

First 10 mins, they've been a bit crap

WTF

HE MISSED IT

No pen

Never touched him he was down before the tackle.

Living on the edge.

Shame to see Pepe go off as he would have been the player to target in the second half.

Just have to look at these Porto players and they go down
