Is that Rooney?
Would him being dropped mean Pogba got played in a position where he'd be more effective? Problems and the pressure of price tags I'm glad Klopp doesn't have ![]()

We're now back to where we started on Friday in the league table, other results weren't kind to us.

Arsenal v Chelsea next weekend, so as long as we beat Hull we should rise up a place or two. |

We've got Hull at Anfield and Swansea away. We should get 6 points there, but we may well end up with 4.
Then we've got another stupid international break before we play Man United at Anfield. So, yeah, an easy 9 points up for grabs.

![]() After that excellent team performance v Chelsea we have to keep that same level of performance v Hull. I'll be very disappointed after Arsenal smashed them. albeit they had a man sent off, if we can't win the game. |

Here's a classic from the Chelsea thread...
Sturridge I didn't bother wading in as it's their thread after all but given what happened last season I found it an astounding comment to make. Sturridge may want to be 100% to play but he's never downed tools or demanded to be substituted because he can't hack it. |

That perplexed me too, although I disagree with a lot of what the don comes out with at times. If he'd said he wouldn't want Sturridge back because of his injury problems then I'd agree, but I really have no idea why his mentality is still being questioned, he seems mature enough thesedays.

I feel like Sturridge has been doing a rather underappreciated job so far this season. His intelligent runs have been creating all sorts of space for our dangerous midfielders to wander into.

How many changes to you think we'll see to the side at Derby tomorrow night in the League Cup?
I'm not sure I share the view that we should be making too many changes to rest players for the PL. As it's so early in a season where we're not going to have too many midweek games due to no European competition. Losing semi finalists two years ago and losing finalists last year would be a good progression to winning the competition his time out. Klopp to get a first trophy under his belt asap and break his 'curse'of finals would also be great. I would like to see starts for Karius and Ejaria???? (Spelling) at the championship club tomorrow. |

Well, my XI prediction:
Karius Clyne - Lovren - Ragnar - Moreno Lallana - Can - Hendo Mané - Origi - Coutinho This is with Sturridge and Firmino as doubts. We may start with Stewart in Can's place and Can coming on later, or Stewart might come on for Can, but I'm gonna go with Can starting. We may see Ejaria getting some game time. If he was fit it'd be a great time to bring Ojo in, but he's not fit. Might also see Ings play, but Origi is higher up in the pecking order, so it'd be more practical to start him. We could start Origi in one of the wide places and Ings in the middle, could give Mané a rest. |

Klopp has stated that he's putting out a strong team for the Derby match. I would like to see Karius in the mix, Firmino starting with Can, and Studge and a couple of young ones on the bench - but with a good chance to be used.
No chances should be taken on a possible loss. |

Grujic and Can must play surely?

Just watched the recorded match of our U23's beating Leicester 4-0 a week ago, they played great and Klopp being there was a huge incentive. Tonight they have just hammered Spurs 6-2 away, some of these lads are a bit good!
Ings didn't play tonight which could mean match time for him tomorrow. |

Since it's not been commented on yet, the bookies have now made Liverpool second favourites behind Man City for the title. Bookies are offering between 5/1 and 6/1 for Liverpool to win. Man City look like less than evens (8/13 or 4/6) so they're considerably ahead. Next is Chelsea who are between 8/1 and 10/1.
Too soon to be declaring someone a winner, even if people were crowning Man City as soon as Guardiola was appointed, but I like the fact that the bookies have reacted in such a way. I still think Man City will finish 1st, they're still clear favourites for me, I'm going to play it safe for now and stick to Liverpool finishing fourth. |

I'd actually like to see a fair few as I'd like to see Karius, Grugic, Can, Ings, Lucas, Stewart, Ejaria(?) all have a go. Them in with some 1st teamers should not be disruptive?

On this day in 2006, Xabi Alonso scored that amazing goal from before the halfway line. |

It's weird to think that Moreno, Ragnar, Lucas, Grujic and Origi are kind of our B-team, yet most could just as easily be our first team.

Was just going to type that Derby have contained us well in the first 20mins but our expensive new 'striker' Klavan
capitalises on a defensive error to put us one up.0-1 25mins. |
