Think this was always going to be the team.  Glad Klopp has seen sense and dropped the underperformers

could have let me have my moment mate

Happy that Sturridge is starting, looking forward to seeing him with Mane, Salah and Coutiniho behind him

Considering Robertson has been either MOTM or one of the best performers on the pitch in each game he's played it's odd he's not seeing more game time.

Yes, my thoughts as well. Moreno looks like to be a number one option for left back right now, and personally I am not perfectly happy with that. Just too many question marks with his defending.
And also, Robbo deserves more minutes.

One centre back as a sub is a must and perhaps Milner's versatility means he could still be used as left back if needed. In other words, so much competition for places and tough reality for Robertson.

Strong line up and I hope things click today in front of the home side's goal. There is definitely so much more to come from this team than the way things went last month. Shooting needs to get better and we just need to be more clinical with the chances being created.

Clean sheet would be nice to get some confidence back for our back four and Mignolet.

I could be wrong, as memory does that. But I remember they seemed close when they were here.

For Swansea he got into it with Lucas, when Henderson pushed him away and he was mouthing off at Henderson. Then left a bit on Henderson in a tackle later on. Ever since then I got the impression he maybe sees Henderson as what he could have been. e.g. young English player tipped to take over from Gerrard at club and international level, captain, etc.

OK, Ta. Didn't remember the incident.

Kloppo and Rafa hug. 

[surfer. Fuck you generator.]

Playing Shelvey Merino as as a tandem for the first time, against our attack, is an interesting move. Maybe they have the idea to be more adventurous than expected, in which case our attack will have room to breathe, if we can contain their moves first.

Best thing about the league, Conte v Pep yesterday,  Klopp v Rafa today.

Both managers looking happy and relaxed.
