Match Thread Liverpool V Man City

[trueandred]

Starting lineup confirmed.

Alisson

Szobo Konate Van Dijk Kerkez

Gravenberch Mac Allister Wirtz

Salah Ekitike Gakpo

Kerkez and Gakpo are an issue in this team. I think City will win this. I hope not, but they look very strong.

[JockStrap]

Do you mean the combination of Gakpo and Kerkez not working together? Or just those two players? Because Kerkez has been superb of late.

[Nineteenx]

We’ve had a week to prepare & work on everything we’ve been improving these last 2 games to improve it further and further as we always should

Team confirmed

Given it worked last time out and we have the option to bring a player on and move Szobo into midfield

Alisson

Szobo Konate Van Dijk Kerkez

Gravenberch Mac Allister Wirtz

Salah Ekitike Gakpo

Wirtz arriving rather than starting up there is really paying dividends for me

Great ball today from Kerkez for Ekitike’s second need more of that from him and better delivery and working of the space when further forward

Get the win be direct mix it up attack quickly no slowing it down going backwards unnecessarily

City have been very weak this season and easily countered on and played through if we play direct and mix it up, pick up to win it back high and stop counters Kerkez ideally needs to be 1v1 on Senenyo stop him receiving it and get turned and being released in behind

Three points minimum requirement

[Nineteenx]

You ideally need a man on Rodri, false 9 would have been ideal

[JockStrap]

Slot electing to go with the same starting 11 as the Newcastle game.

No Gomez available for RB so Slobo it is.

[Steveo]

Be great to see a long shot of Semenyo and Guehi’s faces at FT - IF we win.

Come on…. come on

[JockStrap]

Right kids I'm off to enjoy a good game of football. I'll check in on you later. Behave until I get back.

[Steveo]

You ideally need a man on Rodri, false 9 would have been ideal

Macca needs a good game

[Jenson78]

Must win, had a week off, loads of training and planning, playing at Home NO EXCUSES. Come On Lads.

[faridtoxteth]

Why is Doku not playing? I think City are missing a trick leaving him out. Or is he injured? I was most worried about him running at our right side and he was the main source of our problems last time we played.

[Jenson78]

Would like to see some crunching tackles on Semenyo and Guehi.

Salah will be bang up for this. Won’t want Marmoush to out score him

FFS that was close for City

Early scare, Alisson & Sobozla bailing everyone out
