Spike 5,103 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Just now, LFCMike said: You cannot prove he won't though. Klopp is pretty good at improving players. Gomez has had a few bad games recently but prior to that he was great and to most he was definitely the choice alongside VanDijk. He's had a few bad games but his previous form shows there's plenty to work with. Young players go through bad patches But that isn’t the point I’m making. He could be great, he may not: it has to be taken at face value; Liverpool are in a prime position to win right now and is Gomez good enough for the defending champions starting 38 games?

Rick 2,276 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 I’m not even saying we need to bring in a centre back and fuck Gomez. I’m on about bringing in numbers, there are definitely centre backs that can be brought in who can do a good job for us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaaay AFC 357 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Excellent start for Villa, really like the team they've built this summer. Barkley, Martinez, Watkins are top signings for me. Not to mention keeping Grealish, really like their midfield actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil-Dick Willie 3,253 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 It's funny, I regularly get scores like this using shit teams against Liverpool on fifa, on the hardest difficulty because every player in every position bum rushes the ball carrier leading to gaping holes that any idiot can exploit using the Y button judiciously. Never thought I'd see it in actual fact hahahaha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes hes proven over a two year period he's good enough. As said above, the system relies on Allison. Klopp will have to adapt that if Alisson is out for longer. A lot of Liverpool's problems come from the goalkeeper if Alisson is out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subscriber Dan+ 1,918 Posted October 4, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted October 4, 2020 If Alisson's injury is significant that genuinely blows this league wide open. Him and Van Dijk are irreplaceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas 3,827 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Nothing against Liverpool but for the sake of the Premier League this season, it needed this to happen to stop it being another procession. As mad as these first few weeks have been, I'm sure time we get to November and teams are fully warmed up in their stride that normal service will resume.

Subscriber RandoEFC+ 7,661 Posted October 4, 2020 Subscriber Share Posted October 4, 2020 Just take a moment to stop and think that some people will have watched the same football match as you there and think that Jack Grealish only getting an emergency call up to replace an injured player while Mason Mount and Phil Foden start games for England is perfectly normal.

What an outcry I rate Mount highly but even with Chelsea's dip over the past couple of years you dominate most games and he plays with Pulisic giving defenders something else to think about, overlapping full backs and service from the likes of Kovacic and the opportunity to play off Giroud who is one of the best in the business at what he does. Grealish had scraps to feed off at Villa last season yet consistently showed his quality. I don't give a rat's bottom where the player's team finished. You can see just by watching Grealish that he's an absolutely quality player. Mount is close to the same level and will still improve but it's classic England. Get a short run of decent games in a "top" side and you're straight in the squad. Grealish has been ready for well over a season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 2,204 Posted October 4, 2020 Share Posted October 4, 2020 Grealish isn’t a central midfielder, he plays on the left. England already have that in Sterling, Sancho and Rashford. Mount and Foden can both play centrally, Foden is left footed so invaluable in that sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rashford scored 22 goals last season, Grealish is good but he hasn’t done anything to suggest he’s better than Rashford yet, definitely not Sancho and Sterling too.
