Cook and Gosling both ruled out for the Cherries, so their CM has to be Lerma and Surman

Why not Clyne? He's a very solid defensively-focused RB. I love TAA but it baffles me that Clyne has gotten virtually zero playing time when healthy.

EDIT: He's been injured longer than I thought. :-X

Bournemouth probably have the kind of attitude where they hope to get a couple of early goals in these kinds of games because they know they will tire later on.  They've never struck me as a dirty team, a la Burnley though, so with a decent ref (ha!) we should be able to control this match over the 90 with pretty much any team we choose to put out.

Lovren not fit per Klopp. Got a knock last week and got a concussion

Clyne is out and has been out for two weeks, nothing serious bot not in training.

Solanke is out as well, expected to return to training on Sunday

Would like to Sturridge operating a little deeper again, thought he picked up the ball well there on Wednesday and has the quality to play passes and get his shots away.

I would go with:

                                      Salah
                             Bobby        Studge

                                       Naby
                          Fabinho            Gini

                       Robbo VVD Lovren Trent

Maybe Shaq for Naby depending how his fitness is after his shift Wednesday

Klopp says he has a plan for the RB position with Gomez out, Clyne still out. Trent obviously is not going to play every game. So he may not play tomorrow.

Nat Phillips is the only one left.

Lovren will probably be ready for next week, since it's a concussion and it's already been a week.

The way Klopp gestured to keep going after the journalist suggested Milner and Fabinho suggests to me that we might see Camacho, or another option at right-back on Saturday. I'd be nervous if it was Camacho starting, but that said, would much rather he played him against Bournemouth as a first team debut rather than in a crunch CL game against Napoli or at home to Utd.

From that I think it's safe to say that Mane makes the bench at best and both Lovren and Clyne are out. I think we'll go as strong as possible for the next three and assess fitness after Utd.

Once Clyne is fit and it should be relatively soon, we're fine in terms of options.

We're hardly stretched, it just means different options. It's really unfortunate we have a few niggles here and there but it's lucky it's nothing serious. All the other teams have similar issues with injuries we have at the moment.

It's worrying for us as fans but it's often how players break though, Rashford and Trent being the biggest examples over the past few years.

Resting for Napoli/United maybe? I guess with no Gomez we need to get someone else comfortable at RB and this is probably a better game to do it than those two, in theory

Just cannot see Milner doing well again so soon after the last game. Personally I think he's going to be held back for Napoli and with good reason. He's at his best with a good rest.

Nothing but as Klopp said he's not going to play 20 games in a row. He played against Watford,played against Everton,played against Burnley, and now we have another 3 games coming up, can't expect him to play in every single one of those.

I know Keita hasn't played much football and played 90 on Wednesday but please Jurgen play him again.

I would definitely like to see him get another run around. On the other hand, I think he is exactly what we need against Napoli on Tuesday. He's capable of linking up the midfield to the front three in a fast and aggressive fasion, which is what we were sorely missing in our European aways.

Mind you, he is probably perfectly capable of playing both. He needs the game time.

We had a strong team against Burnley. 1 of the front 3 will come back and even if we had the Burnley side plus Salah, then that's super strong.

Considering that Bournemouth will be feeling it in their legs this third game, if we can keep the fresh players like Matip, Moreno, Keita, Sturridge, bring in Fabinho then that will help

Would tend to agree with this. Start off with the squad players and then bring on the big guns or is it the other way round. Start with the strongest eleven, make the game safe and then look to rest. Either way could backfire.  I do not believe the United game should enter our thoughts  as there is sufficient time to recover. So we would be looking at who needs time off to be full speed for Tuesday's game. Does he start and then come off  or does he come off the bench.

This will be our hardest game in recent weeks. Bournemouth are better than Burnley, Ever$hit, Watford and Fullham. They actually dominated their game against arsenal too. Arsenal were lucky in that game.

I hope we don't start slow against them.

Our realistic ambitions after these two upcoming games could go from "Let's win the title and have a deep run in the CL" to "Let's secure top 4 and grab a cheeky Europa League/FA Cup trophy" ala Arsenal or Chelsea.

I'm not feeling so good after the injuries to Gomez, Lovren, Mane, and Clyne.

 ;D

Mate your ambitions should be to consolidate yourselves in the top half, you're only three points away from dropping into the bottom half.
