Brighton (A) Premier League - 14/1/23 - 15:00

[Anubis]

Trossard has been banished from first team training over a possible move to Spurs, according to the Fail.

 

Hopefully out of the squad for our game.

If that’s the line up I’ll probably look for a stream on Everton Southampton instead. That promises to be pretty entertaining.

Klopp should let you do the team talk.

Hope Keita gets a start. Brighton are arguably pretty strong favourites, on form.

[Megadrive Man]

They made Everton look incredibly poor last week, which is no mean feat.

[LFC 6 Times]

Just a real low feeling around the club at the moment. Undoubtedly going to be an extremely tough game. A win feels unlikely but I’ll never not fancy a Liverpool win.

 

Alisson, Trent, Matip, Konate, Robbo, Fabinho, Keita, Thiago, Mo, Gakpo, Carvalho.

Going down tomorrow. Spent >£100 on trains and my ticket and I’ve not even set foot in Brighton yet. 
 

I hope for a day with a good pound : enjoyment ratio.

Chances are high I'd say, Scotty.

I remember in the covid season, we kept trying to play "our"way with unsuitable players. In that instance, it was midfielders playing centre back. Eventually we put proper centre halves in, in williams and philips, dropped the line to cover them better and won 8 out of 10 games. 

Now the unsuitable players are our actual midfielders as a collective. We need to drop the line and drop them back further which will help both defence and midfield. We need to start grinding out wins and playing more on the counter, especially away from home, if we're to have any chance of a chance of going for top 4 when and if virgil, jota and Diaz get back.

Gutted Bobby seems to be out for an extended period. Really reduces our options up front. Not ideal that Darwin is out, but with Bobby there Gakpo could have played his favoured position. Plus point from his first appearance for us was that he seemed more capable of finding space between the lines than I thought he would against PL opposition. If Darwin is fit/had been fit, I would have liked to see him on the LW and Gakpo in the middle.

 

Come to think of it, I kind of expect him to be played as a false 9 tomorrow with our current predicament, with the much-maligned Ox playing LW. Not ideal, we need a clean sheet if we're going to get something I'm afraid.

 

A bit depressing, but the best news for tomorrow is probably that Trossard is out, he loves a goal (or 3) against us.

I hope that Terry Connor isnt playing.

I predict 0-4 to us.

[dockers_strike]

Good news is Trossard dropped from the squad by Brighton for disciplinary reasons, walked out of training after finding he wouldnt play in their FA Cup game.

Could be a sting in this tale.

Twatter rumours that Nunez has travelled....

[an tha]

It is deeply depressing that we have gone from being the best team on the planet to people quite justifiably expecting us to get beat at Brighton in next to no time.

[Trojan1892]

I’d give Doak a chance of Nunez is injured.

Going to make Lallana look like Lothar Mattaus tomorrow

We should set up a pool to see how many cruyff turns he does whilst not being tackled by our robust midfield.  

I'm going for 8. 2 big chances will arise at least.
