I'd have Minamino starting in the middle of the front three next match.

I actually thought Henderson and Fabinho did really well as a centre back partnership in that match. Losing Jota is hurting more than losing Matip or Gomez at the moment. No idea what's up with our front three.

Top four is not looking dicey. I know it's @TheDrowningMan saying that, but come on. We're better than fucking Chelsea, Spurs, Leicester and Everton.

If someone is in space, the player on the ball might ignore it, if they think that someone is shite. Can remember loads of players who very rarely got the ball passed to them over the years. Gerrard in particular was very choosy about who he passed to, although given the ability of some of the players he had to put up with over his time at Liverpool you can understand it.

It's an absolutely magical bit of shithousery from Suarez that. Was there anything he wasn't world class at?

Six and a bit hours til kick off and I'm already getting twitchy. Fucking hate these cunts. The worst thing for me about all these dickheads like Clattenburg coming out of the woodwork is that if we were playing even half as well as we could, we'd have battered West Brom and Newcastle and been clear at the top of the league, and none of them would have said a thing. Now we're playing like a midtable side there's a lot more mileage in putting the boot in. If we twat these out of sight today the media will have to change the story again. Right now it's all about how Ole is the second coming of Ferguson and Klopp is losing the plot. We need a convincing victory today with an excellent performance to really ram those words back down their throats.

Hendo's probably better at long passes out of the back as well. With Luiz you always have the chance of passing to an opposition striker.

It'd almost be worth getting Ramos in just so Salah can chin him in the first morning's training.

If we play as well as we know we can, it won't matter if the ref lets the mancs play with twelve men. The big problem for us at the moment is that we are playing like shit.

Fikayo Tomori looks like he's being loaned to AC Milan, wonder if we even enquired about a deal.

My guess is we'll see Matip again in February, for about 60 minutes.

Was one of Keita's bigger fans on here, but he's done. Basically just dead weight now.

The big switches from one flank to the other are missing this year, Van Dijk used to play a lot of them. Hoping Thiago can pick up the slack. No idea why Trent has stopped playing them though. Pinged a superb one to Mane against Newcastle in the first half then didn't bother attempting another one.

Hopefully Layton Stewart uses this inevitable defeat as motivation for the rest of his career.

He's decent. Probably a little ahead of Curtis Jones, bit more acceleration to his game, lovely technique, gives the ball away a bit too much.
