Liverpool vs Bournemouth team

[justme]

Ok now all pre-season games are over and the customary charity shield fixture, time for the real football to start

______Salah________________________Ekitike..


With the absence of Graveberch best option for me is Mac Allister. Then we should go with Wirz as a false 9. until we get a proper forward. I know Ekitike did fine today.. But the midfield worries me right now. so need more in there..

Alisson

Frimpong Konate Van Dijk Robertson

Sloppy Gravenberch Macca

Salah Entikite Wirtz

Get the win no excuses

[justme]

Gravenberch IS NOT AVAILABLE

[Kev0909]

Wonder if the under 18's will fill the bench by time we play Bournemouth?

Might have sold another 5 players by then because we've got such good depth

Has that been confirmed? Has he gone back to Holland for the birth?

[miller0863]

He’s serving a one game ban

[sydenham red]

Has that been confirmed? Has he gone back to Holland for the birth?

He is suspended after Red card end of last season. The baby has arrived so he can have a few days at home then by fuck we need him back to sort out the geordies

[LFC-DPG]

Ah yes cheers, I forgot about the 1 game suspension

Seen some interesting data from the game which showed a heatmap from the game where eritiki played a lot of his football on the left,suggesting eritikie interchanging with isak.

Would be great IF we could land that killer number 9 with Ekitike in combo from the left - I really like Gakpo as a fella - and he does his fare share but if we are relying on him out there for the season we are going to have an issue. Diaz kept things at optimum and was our biggest threat after Mo. consistent rotation and the challenge was a big help for cody last season - while personally I think it hindered Luis. With it all on Cody - it becomes fairly predictable. Can be ponderous - telegraphs his intentions and isn’t the quickest with his interplay.

Not going to happen, but without grav think it'll be good to have numbers in midfield, and have a solid win 2-0 will do

Szob to play in the slightly advance role, I hope this doesn't happen and i'm wrong, but I don't think Szob and wirtz in midfield is a good idea and not going to work, hopefully with Grav back that'll change, because jones isn't exactly the most solid and more of a forward player himself i'd say.

[miller0863]

I agree Kev, the midfield has looked way too open in the run up, particularly without Gravenberch I would be wanting that extra body in there

[Ravo19]

Is there a prize for spotting isak at anfield tomorrow night?

[justincredible]

Isak Hunt...
