Not nearly as confident now. Need big games from Salah and Mane.

Same, so disappointed in that team selection

[Bjornebye]

Vertonghen you fucking cunt

Indeed, with that injury, either he's fine to play or should be nowhere near a football field.

 

With respect, I’m sure the club doctors have a better idea of what he can and can’t do

[Anubis]

Klopp will want to ease Fabinho and Shaqiri in against Chelsea and City.

Fabinho and Keita must be sitting there thinking what the fuck 

In fairness, there was similar headscratching around the Robertson and Ox beginnings this time last year. Long season ahead.

On the plus side, their back 5 aren't all that great.

Let's hope our front 2 are on it.

Actually stunned he has selected Sturridge.  Feel deflated before a ball is kicked especially with those Spud fuckers winning at Inter

Henderson was absolutely colossal in his last European game at Anfield. 

I wouldn't worry too much about that midfield against a good side that will push up, their strengths and weaknesses make this the game to play them.   You couldn't put money on us beating a Southampton with those three but they'll all bust a gut tonight and we'll need that.

 

It's that fanny upfront that's going to ruin everything that makes us great, like he's done EVERY time he's started the last three-four years.  Hopefully the weather puts him off and we're forced into playing someone more mobile than me dead gran.  It wouldn't be the first time he shits out of a game.

When did CL games move to 8pm kick offs? Must have missed that memo.

It was in the small print of the 6pm kick off memo.

And fuck knows what Shaqiri must be thinking.

It is his first CL start since 2012 when he was at Chelsea.

Hearing that you’re not a fan of Studge, Grinch.

442 diamond with Sturridge as number 10, is what I’d do

That's what it will be. I'll bet that Salah and probably Mane will have higher average positions and that we'll play very narrow.

Anyone got a decent BT Sport 2 stream?

Rinus? More like Ranus.

Disappointed by the team selection, but it highlights how dependent we are on avoiding injury to our front three if we're going to achieve anything this season.

Outstanding.

Would like to have seen Shaqiri get the nod ahead of Golden crutches

 

Fabinho needs to get on the pitch tonight, just from a psychological point of view

 

When we play "big" side like this, it normally throws up a villain of the piece- Ramos etc.

 

My money is on Neymar getting an outrageous pen
