Liverpool v Leeds

[Nineteenx]

Team

Alisson

Frimpong Konate Van Dijk Robertson

Szoboclai Gravenberch Jones

Chiesa Ekitike Wirtz

Chiesa definitely worth another start to get more fitness, he played sone really nice stuff and Szobo back in will help him too

Picking up press and counter press needs to improve to stop them releasing that mid in the centre we keep allowing teams to and stop them releasing Calvert Lewis need to be on point and stop the crosses, get tight don’t let them come in easy

We can’t have runners with no pressure on the ball

Get the win, no excuses

Though Ekitike was absolutely goosed at the end today. He and Wirtz are really struggling to manage 90 minutes

Yep massive step up in intensity and physicality from Bundesliga to Premier league. Also both are having to do a huge amount to make up for deficiencies elsewhere.

Our lesser spotted midfield being a primary culprit

Think I read somewhere that both of them are going through strengthening training to get them up to the physicality of the PL.

There's a decent chance we see Gakpo start.

[Steveo]

Yep - I assume those who suggest we’ve been abject in the last 2 - probably believe we’ve been missing his dynamism.

I concur

Szobozlai back and cards wiped clean. Had a decent rest too. Get money on him scoring a worldie and putting in another MOTM performance.

[JockStrap]

He can't do any worse than Chiesa.

This could be a tough game again. Leeds played very well against Sunderland in the second half. They looked dangerous in almost every attack.

Rumours that they are without Joe Rondon for this one which is a big blow for them if true.

Hopefully.

Konate is one yellow away from suspension so he'll be due a rest soon.

Yeah, i wonder does he "take a yellow" V Leeds to miss Fulham rather than risk it V Fulham thus missing Arsenal A.
In a perfect world he plays next 2 games without a booking but so easy to get one now for a slight shirt pull or a trip. How long to Gomez is back in contention to play CB?
