  1. I don't think it's a major issue. The midfielders at right back are probably better options than Clyne in the games Trent will miss because of their ability on the ball. Gomez probably back in the middle of this run too. The only issue is that it takes away an option or two in midfield but we should get by with what we have given we're only playing one game a week
  2. I'd imagine so. You'd think Matip should be ready given he was on the bench on Saturday. Although I wouldn't be against the idea of Fabinho at centre back again against a side we should have a lot of the ball against. However, with no regular right back available that might be too much change on that side of the defence
  3. Yeah I think he came to Europe as a right back and it was at Monaco he moved to a central midfield
  4. What makes you think that? He was originally a RB I believe and has already showed his versatility by putting in a good performance at CB on Saturday
  5. For all of your good posts, you don't half post some shite
  6. Senior players - Milner or Fabinho. Rafa Camacho played there in the cup against Wolves, so Klopp could turn to him.

    I really don't think he is though. I'm sure the money he'd make from the fight would be a nice little cushion. Brook is desperate for the fight because it's the only big pay day out there for him. Khan has different options because he's a name outside of the UK You can't blame someone for wanting to fight the best.

    I can see why people say it, I just don't agree with it. Pretty much since he won a world title Khan has been about chasing the big fights in the US. Brook needs Khan more than the other way around. Khan's not going to turn big fights down over in the US when he knows the Brook fight is always there to fall back on if it goes wrong over there

    I don't get this talk of him ducking Brook given he's fighting for a belt against Crawford but there you go..
  10. That Tosun has been an absolutely terrible signing hasn't he?

    Shame if it ends early like this for him. Great player
  12. Nah he's fine most of the time. The problem is you know he has the odd performance in him where, as said above, he looks dreadful and that means he should only ever be back up to our two first choice CBs.
  13. It really isn't. Whatever you think of Lovren, he's a decent Premier League player who gets into most sides in the league. We played a 16 year old kid there last night who is promising and had a decent game. No way is he ready for Premier League football though
  14. I think the simple answer is better footballers and more of them but there's obviously a bit more to it than that. Under Rodgers, mainly in 12/13 and 14/15, it was stop Suarez and then later Sturridge or Coutinho and you stop Liverpool. In Klopp's first year to 18 months it wasn't necessarily always a case of us struggling to break teams down. We had a few results against lesser sides where we scored once or twice in a game at home but still failed to win. I can think of a few 2-2 draws and a 2-3 defeat to Swansea off the top of my head. Alisson and Van Dijk have changed everything for this side. You never felt confident that we'd keep clean sheets before those two and we no longer have to score 3+ to guarantee a win. The options off the bench or when we make a few changes are obviously also much better now too. With a stronger defence and midfield now too we've seen Klopp go with a 4-2-3-1 quite often this season to fit Shaqiri in which obviously helps our attacking options but hasn't taken much away from the defensive solidity.
  15. Mourinho's heavy outlay was supposed to deliver a league title in the first couple of years. A Europa League and League Cup together with the dull, defensive football didn't cut it for most sane United fans. And rightly so after what they've been used to. Ok, it's two trophies but they're 4th and 5th in terms of priorities for United fans.
  16. He's a nobhead who should have been binned after the Europa League final. He really can't complain about lack of chances. I'd rather see Milner or Clyne there if Robertson needs a rest or is unavailable for whatever reason.
