Just a few minutes until kick off.

Loads of changes by Klopp, youth and hunger to drive us onwards and upwards.

[TepidT2O]

I suspect with two big uns up top, Leicester are going to go long and perform an aerial assault.

Let's show some resilience..

[TepidT2O]

And were off, as the reds take the centre and spray it long to the left.

[TepidT2O]

2 neither side is able to keep possession as the ball pings about in midfield.

[TepidT2O]

3 corner to Leicester. Our left side form a blocked cross.

Cleared for another corner on the other side

Which ward takes cleanly

[TepidT2O]

5 Chance for Oxchambo.  Great work by Coutinho to release Robertson down the left who crosses but the shot is blocked and goes over.

The following corner gives a chance to Solanke who's shot goes just wide.

[TepidT2O]

7 Coutinho plays in Robertson on the left and he shapes a lovely cross which no one is near enough too.  Could have been a chance there..

[TepidT2O]

9 Slimani runs on to a long hoof, but Wards high starting position me as he gets to the ball first.

[TepidT2O]

10 Countinho weaves into the area causing chaos.  His shit to the keepers fit is parried away.

[Oddball]

(Said in my best David Pleat impression) Good evening everybody. Both teams have started brightly, Liverpool more so in the ascendancy. Robertson has put in a couple of great balls and Ward had a comfortable take on a corner and was quick off his line too.

[Oddball]

His shit to the keepers fit is parried away.

Is that not a yellow?

[Chakan]

10 Countinho weaves into the area causing chaos.  His shit to the keepers fit is parried away.

Who flung dung?

[Crimson_Tank]

Who flung dung?

Moreno, from the sidelines.

[Oddball]

Is Gray stoned?

[TepidT2O]

13 Free kick 35 yards out after Coutinho is caught.

It's taken short and it breaks into the area, Gomez streaks after it and forces a corner off he keeper.

[TepidT2O]

14 The corner from our right is headed high and wide by Grujic who was always stretching.

All reds here...

Over to uncle crimson.

[TepidT2O]

Who flung dung?

Autocorrect and tablet keyboard.  No one has shat on the pitch.  Repeat, no shitting.

[Crimson_Tank]

15' Good day to you all, not a uncle yet mind.

We look well onto power of these at the moment, Klopp seems Cooley Confident on the sidelines.

Ox and Phil trie a one two in the box but Phill puts too much on the two and the ball is out for a goal kick, but we regain possession again, Gini finds Philr and we build again.

[L666KOP]

Robertson convinced me in 20 minutes he's better than Moreno or Milner.

[TepidT2O]

As you say that he's gone mad berating Gini for not passing

[Crimson_Tank]

17' Phil and Solanke play a back and forth until Phil has a pop, a low skipping daisy cutter, keeper collects, plays it long and into our box is Salami but it is cleared after he has a touch, back at their end, Gini drives into the box but Ox hits it over the box.

Real end to end stuff.

[Oddball]

Ward convinced me in 20 minutes he's better than Mignolet or Klavan.

Fixed for the HT/FT threads.

[Crimson_Tank]

19' It seems as if the ball ispoalrized against the boys in blue, and as I type this they break but the shot is tamer than Tepid and Ward kneels to collect.

[Crimson_Tank]

21' Henderson has a very poor chip into their box, but is miss cued and we nearly make something of it, Cleared.

Robertons crosses in and Solanke makes the run and connects but skies it.

[Crimson_Tank]

23' The Traveling Kop in full and fine voice, as we move the ball around with ease, just need the end product.

Score some goals lads.

[Oddball]

Some of the balls that have been put in (all bar 1 from Robertson) have been crying out for someone at the far post.

[Rush 82]

23' The Traveling Kop in full and fine voice, as we move the ball around with ease, just need the end product.

Score some goals lads.

This, so much this

[Crimson_Tank]

24' Phil finds a cross/shot paired wide but no one made the run, Robertson brings it back into the box taking on two defenders, but it is cleared as Phil looks to tap it in.

Robertons looking really really good mind.

[TepidT2O]

I do like watching Grujic play football..

If he could get a run of games, I think there could be a real player in there.

[Groundskeeper Willie]

Robertson looking really good, and extremely one footed so far.

[TepidT2O]

Robertson looking really, and extremely one footed so far.

But it's a wand as potent as a derby winner's knob.

[Crimson_Tank]

27' We break them down like a kid smashing their biscuits but yet the bits fly every which way and so does the ball, across the mouth of goal but no real bite.

[Crimson_Tank]

28' Phil finds Grujic I'm the box but the tall lad can't get the ball though his defender, we collect again and again they put it out but it is all us.

[Oddball]

I do like watching Grujic play football..

If he could get a run of games, I think there could be a real player in there.

You aint alone with those thoughts.

[Crimson_Tank]

30' Phil looks to release Ox but the ball is too quick and away, cleared, and over to our resident comma Farmer.

[L666KOP]

32' Combine harvester parked for the night.
Looks like Ox may have a slight knock.
We're beating on Leicester like a fat kid on a sweet shop door a minute after it should have opened

[L666KOP]

35' Our fringe players are really impressing.
Solanke, Robertson, Grujic.
Our new number 10 is looking better after a shaky start.
He could be 1 to watch perhaps.

[Groundskeeper Willie]

Like Collymore on Ulrika.

[L666KOP]

Ox again getting treatment.
I reckon he's just not used to running.
