No official news about a pitch inspection for NFO v LUT.

If it is off, Anderson will sub in for Morris.

Fitz* · 21-10-2023 10:41am

No real talk of that Forest game being postponed, that I can see anyways, so I would assume it goes ahead.

Will be ditching Darwin next week, he's not worth the hassle.

Yea he’s been some disaster - watch him come on score the winner and then get benched next week.

I'd rather have Watkins, at least you know what you're getting with him!

Fitz* · 21-10-2023 12:48pm

2 big chances for Liverpool but nothing to show for it. Didn't even get a shot on goal both times. Diaz involved in both.

COH · 21-10-2023 12:58pm

Fully expecting to get punished for benching Diaz now. Back to behind the couch I go

scotchy · 21-10-2023 1:08pm

Young red card

F1ngers · 21-10-2023 1:09pm

Young off, 2nd yellow.

Ace2007 · 21-10-2023 1:51pm

Tsimakes just makes 60m before being substituion

Nunez on - let's go!!!

Cartman78 · 21-10-2023 1:51pm

Presumably Diaz to left wing back

extra gravy · 21-10-2023 1:52pm

Darwin & Elliot on

Gravenbach and Tsimikas off

62'

Ace2007 · 21-10-2023 1:54pm

Konate should have had second yellow and it off - but ref bottles it - Klopp tells Matip to get ready to come on now

Ace2007 · 21-10-2023 1:55pm

Konate off, Maptip on

gammygils · 21-10-2023 2:01pm

Tsimikas off with cleanie points intact and on my bench so all my doubtfuls will start then

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 2:01pm

Clear penalty not given for a foul on Diaz.

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 2:03pm

Could be a penalty now for handball.

Will be Diaz assist if given and scored.

Ace2007 · 21-10-2023 2:04pm

Salah scores penalty (Diaz)

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 2:04pm

Salah scores.

mailburner · 21-10-2023 2:06pm

wasn't looking great for capt salah up til that 😀

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 2:11pm

Diaz gone off now for Gomez.

Fitz* · 21-10-2023 2:11pm

Diaz assist!

Points weren't looking likely for a while after he missed the early chances.

The Tsimikas 60 mins is interesting. Will that continue?

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 2:17pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121267102#Comment_121267102

He’s hasn’t played much so to be expected.

He was poor on the ball though and his passing was poor too but he may get better with games.

I think with Liverpool you can only own, and enjoy owning, Trent or Salah.

I didn’t think Salah was great although he’s likely on for 11 points. Not sure I’ll take a -8 to get him in next week.

extra gravy · 21-10-2023 2:19pm

Salah will need another return to get any bonus

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 2:21pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121267138#Comment_121267138

Ah. I thought scoring the winning goal bps wouldn’t register until after the 90 minutes.

F1ngers · 21-10-2023 2:21pm

Salah only on 8 points, fair bit off 3 bonus points.

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 2:27pm

Salah again.

Darwin assist.

Fitz* · 21-10-2023 2:27pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121267127#Comment_121267127

I'm looking at Tsimikas and Nunez next week. Maybe Salah instead.

I think Nunez didn't start today cos of internationals and I probably wouldn't start him away to Man City after the next international break anyways as Gakpo should start that one IMO.

On Tsimikas, it could be because he has to start on Thursday too, as there is only kids remaining as the remaining tee age LB options haven't had first team experience (Luke Chambers has 1 minute for Liverpool and is injured. Callum Scanlon has 0 minutes played).

There's also the tactical set up side to it too as Liverpool piled bodies forwards to attack. Liverpool. Didn't bother playing full backs for that period of time. Klopp might clear it up afterwards.

normanoffside · 21-10-2023 2:27pm

Salah (nunez)

It used to be like that but it's all done in real time these days.

**** me. It’s the only thing that website does in real time so. It took about 55 minutes to update after the deadline.

Ace2007 · 21-10-2023 2:37pm

20 points after that game, hopefully it's not the start of false dawn

Father Hernandez · 21-10-2023 2:39pm

https://www.boards.ie/discussion/comment/121267182#Comment_121267182

Fully agree, even if he's starting on the bench, 30 mins and he could still return as we seen today. Will take the 4 points and look forward to him starting against Forest.

Mr Crispy · 21-10-2023 2:41pm

Captain Salah paying off so far. Heard the Darwin news at the last second and managed to bench him for Diaby, so hopefully that works out too.

Yeah, expecting the Haalinator to have a good day.

Ace2007 · 21-10-2023 3:06pm

Murphy (Trippier)

crushproof · 21-10-2023 3:08pm

Not having Trippier is an absolute killer

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 3:10pm

Alvarez goal.

Doku assist.

mishit shot

Ace2007 · 21-10-2023 3:11pm

Trippier too hyped up there - going full force into a challenge where there was no need - risking an injury

fplfan12345 · 21-10-2023 3:11pm

Going to be a long long day for these Brighton defenders trying to play out from the back.

Think we could see a big score today.
