What we need is a fast start and open up a strong lead in first half.

it would fit football luck that Brewster will score against us for first ever goal.

I’d want Thiago for this game with hendo if available. I’d play Jota instead of firmino to start and see if that opens up a different dynamic. 

Brewster won't be able to play surely?

If we snuck in a third clause in that deal we really are good

Ah ofc, we sold him didn't we? Convinced myself it was a loan.

I'd expect him to start. 

They've got a few injuries, Fleck, O'Connell and Mousset but lots of available forwards but even so they'd be daft not to play a motivated Brewster 

[psl]

I'd like Jota to start but the whole front 3 going off definitely suggests otherwise. Off the bench and start on mid-week I reckon.

Wilder thinks their injuries are worse, relatively, than us losing VVD.

Do seem to have a few.

[Guy_Incognito]

Brewster is, of course, going to score, so we need to base any plan around that.  Probably best to let him do it straight away, so we have the full 90 to deal with it.

He's trying to make excuses for their s*** start now they've been found out.

They only have Fleck, O'Connell and Mousset out from what I can see. 

We've probably got Alisson, Matip, Thiago, Ox, VVD, Tsimikas, Keïta all missing.

Wilder seems sound to me. Don't mind if he wants to make excuses.

Yeah get the seed planted early in his players minds that there's no point even turning up.

[Hightown Phil]

They've missed, and will continue to miss, O'Connell massively. The drop off from him to Robinson or whoever else they might play in is astronomical and Salah could destroy them.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

and they lost a good keeper from last season - Henderson - who was on loan back to the mancs

[PaulMcC186]

Tsimikas missing next 2 games at least. Everyone else apart from Chamberlain and Van Dijk they'll take it day by day.

[Sir Tokyo Sexwale]

what exactly is the Ox' injury?

[Swipe]

The main man Indykaila reckons Alisson has declared himself fit for tomorrow. Presume he's swiped that from an actual journalist.

Klopp might be more cautious even if it's true.

I don't know. I didn't think it was serious but he seems to be out for ages 

[Swipe]

He hurt his knee in training in Austria. Klopp mentioned at the time it was similar to the injury Hendo had.

He was ruled out of the rest of pre-season as soon as it happened.

He said 8 weeks, must be close to that now?

Klopp has only ruled Ox, VVD and Tsimikas out.

And I loved the way he called the CB Billy the kid.

Was looking forward to watching this then sussed it was pay per view which can f*** off. 

Yeah I'm currently doing the mental gymnastics required to justify paying that for the game.

I'm currently leaning towards the "f*** that" end of the scale but that's likely to change somewhat as we approach kick off tomorrow

[Hassony]

Alisson might start tomorrow according to Anfield watch 

 

I have no idea who they are, but if it's true I'm getting their name tattooed on my forehead

use a snide feed & donate the cash to hungry kids

[psl]

I'm not paying for it.

Hopefully no one does and they knock PPV on the head.

[Hassony]

If VVD makes a surprise return tomorrow then I'm deffo paying for it
