Just changed my vote to Robbo. We really missed him today.

His partnership with Mane takes both of them to a higher level.

I think it was just compounded by Trent having his worst game in years.  There’s nothing to say Robbo wouldn’t have been rusty himself had he started.

Neither have a suitable back up.   Seen a stat a while back that were not even hitting 2ppg without trent.   Probably cause we stick one of our best cb out there and end up weakening two positions.

The fullback positions need decent cover, Klopp will know this. Right back is ok probably, left back not so much.

It’s difficult because who is going to come here and sit on the bench.  Even if Trent has a bad run of form you wouldn’t drop him, the same for Robertson.  If he was older you could sign a young right back who would be happy to learn from him and fill in here and there but it’s a graveyard for anyone because he’s so young himself.  It’s going to have to be Neco Williams but he will stagnate himself if he stays here.

Keep Clyne and sign Cresswell and only play them when you *really* have to.

I'm happy with Neco as back-up. We've also got Milner, Henderson, Gomez and Fab who can cover on the right. But we need someone to cover Robbo.

I agree with @El Rojo. This thread is an actual disgrace. If we ever sold either of them in their prime, I would pretend to have a bad back and never return to Anfield.

Clyne is training with the kids he’s that exiled.  He’s clearly done something to the point Klopp doesn’t even want him near the team.  I loved Clyne and couldn’t understand the issue and even thought he should have been starting games while Trent improved the defensive side of his game but fuck me his ship has sailed a long time ago.  Now I actually believe the drug rumours because nothing short of that would have created the situation with him now.  Either way him staying clearly isn’t an option.  Cresswell is a Konchesky waiting to happen.  He peaked a long time ago and has been poor for a while.  Our full backs need to be marathon runner level athleticism.
