Dan James is just ******* awful. You don't even wonder whether he is going to **** it up, you just wonder how. He literally has no plan when he is driving at a defence. He just fizzles out. Most players like him are erratic but can be electric with their pace but he comes to a defender, slows to a trot and then just loses the ball every. single. time.

Pretty much he just brain farts when he gets to the final third. It is making it really easy for Chelsea as they only need to worry about Rashford. VDB and Greenwood need to get thrown on.

Yep, needs to go on loan somewhere and see if he can develop a bit more, but he's not even that young.

Cavani on please!

Indeed. He showed promise when he signed last season, but he just hasn’t developed at all and has regressed if anything. Shame.

Pogba would be a much better player if he knew when to try and be strong and when to just play the pass early. So many times he has to prove that he can hold off a player or beat a man when he should just have moved the ball on first time.

Alisson's back :cool:

Front three and Jota all start. Either Bobby in midfield or a 424 :D

Edit: Matip still out as are Keita and Thiago. Honestly wouldn't mind of Keita and Matip were replaced in January, neither can stay fit.

Liverpool: Alisson, Alexander-Arnold, Fabinho, Gomez, Robertson, Henderson, Wijnaldum, Jota, Mane, Salah, Firmino.

Subs: Adrian, Milner, Jones, Minamino, Shaqiri, Phillips, N. Williams.

Our team for tonight, I still stick by stating Bobby should be rested for few games and give Minamino a proper chance

How was the Maguire wrestling hold on Azpalacueta not reviewed! Obvious pen and then the tiny ankle massage on rashford is reviewed for 10 mins

When you're an England centre back you get special dispensation from the FA to be able to put attackers in headlocks.

I dont think we will ever see a consistent world class Keita due to how often he is injured, depending on offers we may get in future i agree with you be half tempted to let go

Minamino's nailed on to start midweek.

Maybe so BUT he deserves some league games imo
