Absolutely no surprises here…

Wonderful news. Suddenly, they'll be playing like their lives depend on it. 

 

Sheffield United 3 Liverpool 1 

 

Anyway, I agree that Gakpo should be starting. Probably as much my own bias as anything, but I think Nunez is still more effective as a sub against tiring defences. 

 

I'd also bring Gomez in at LB for a bit more dominance in defending set pieces.

My concern would be, with Trent constantly coming into the middle, we find  ourselves in a position like Luton (and nearly found ourselves in yesterday).

 

If Matip is fit, I’d be starting him.

Kelleher better give his head a wobble before this game

What was so bad about the goals last game?

 

The first came through very quick. He could maybe be a little faster to step off his line and get down at Wilson's feet, but the shot at the pace of that move was hard to react to in time. 

 

The second looked the worst but probably the easiest to excuse. Header, deflection, shot in about half a second. Turned a routine save into a near post collection and then a shot on his other side. Really hard to change direction that quick and he still nearly had it.

 

The third he could have got across his line a bit faster, that foot speed is the issue for him to work on, but he's with most keepers even at prem level on that front. Still, the defending was an utter shit show and left him exposed. Ali probably would have conceded there too.

 

Main issue is we're still not really defending well enough. Teams can get at us. Kelleher is not a world class keeper, he's probably still sub mignolet level, but he's a good back up and shouldn't be the sole person carrying the can.
