Dr. Gonzo 8,186 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 That 4-5 match was mental, Lallana banger to win it - Heart Attack FC was probably brilliant for neutrals. Probably took a year or 2 off my life though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFCMike 3,009 Posted August 11, 2021 Share Posted August 11, 2021 What team we thinking. I think it'll be something like Alisson TAA Matip Van Dijk Tsimikas Keita Fabinho Milner Salah Firmino Mane I think only doubts are whether he starts Van Dijk and possibly Jota instead of Firmino. I think the rest picks itself Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I say, one of the doubts is whether Firmino does start, but only because he's only just come back. I'd still expect him to be the main man through the middle this season.

I dunno, I can't see him starting over Firmino - at least not right now. For as much criticism as Firmino got for losing form last season, he's still a pretty vital part of how we play. He's also picked up form a bit at the end of last season and has looked good (in highlights) of pre-season I've seen so far. Mane also fell off massively last season, imo, but I still think that he's going to be the starter on the left side of the front 3 for now - he's still proven he's quality and one bad season, where he said he felt long term effects of COVID, doesn't really change the fact that he's been world class for us in the past. There's definitely a chance for Jota to become a starter as the season goes on though. Jota's looked brilliant since joining us and looks hungry to be a starter with us. 1 hour ago, Stan said: Konate not starting? I'd have thought he and Matip would be our CB pairing at the start of the season, thinking that VVD and Gomez would be eased back in after their long injury layoffs. But going off our last friendly, I think it'll probably be VVD and Matip. Klopp's generally a fan of bedding in players with us pretty slowly, so I wouldn't be surprised if we don't see much of Konate for about half a season... barring any injury crisis. And then I think the preferred pairing would likely be: VVD and Konate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For some reason, I think that's more likely than us thumping them. I think Norwich'll make us work for the 3 points and be surprisingly competitive. Wouldn't be surprised if they get a result, tbh (although I've not really kept up with how they've done in pre-season and tbh I don't really put much stock in pre-season performances).

I have a feeling Norwich will do alright this year. I know they have a difficult start but I think they'll swerve relegation this year and finish lower mid table.

Reluctant Striker 134 Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 Rashica is a highly rated player. Pukki & Cantwell have done well before. Tim Krul never plays badly when I see him. And they are giving Billy Gilmour match time. But Liverpool should win fairly comfortable, if they're up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
