Finally time to get out heads off transfer talk and focus on winning games!

Who is everyone's team for Norwich?

I'll go with:

Allison
Trent, konate, Gomez, tsimikas
Fabinho
Milner, Jones
Salah, jota, mane


If Hendo or Thiago are fit I would choose them in midfield. Jota looked to link up well with Mane and Salah the other day so I've chosen him ahead of Bobby. too early for virg just yet imo.

After pre season Harvey Elliot has definitely worked himself into the conversation as well.

Would d go with Matip over Gomez and Ox over one of the mids.

Keita is a shoo-in to start after the pre season he's had. Hopefully this is his season.

Alisson

TAA Matip VVD Tsmikas

Fabinho

Hendo Keita

Salah Jota Mane.

I don't think Jones will start, I imagine it'll be Ox with Elliott being eased in.

CB will be really interesting, Matip and Konate makes the most sense in fitness terms but Gomez had an awesome game lastnight.

The lineup for Norwich based on preseason form (all the games I saw) :

Alisson, TAA, Gomez, Konate, Tsimikas, Fabinho, Milner, Elliot, Mané, Jota, Salah.

The lineup that Klopp will probably choose :

Allison, TAA, Matip, VVD, Tsimikas, Fabinho, Milner, Keita, Mané, Firmino, Salah.

Players that will definitely play:

Alison, TAA, Tsimikas, Mane and Salah

CBs could genuinely be any 2 from VVD, Matip, Konate and Gomez but I think it will be VVD and Matip (but I would be genuinely happy with any combination to start the season) .

Mid is wide open. I hope Fab is deemed 'up to speed' enough to play and I think Milner and Keita will start alongside (I know Keita has his haters on here but he deserves it on his pre-season form) . It will be too soon for Hendo and Thiago and I expect Ox and Elliot to be used from the bench (both to cover mid and forward line) .

Before last night I would have had Jota at 100% starting but Firmino looks raring to go so it's a tossup for me between the two. I suspect Jota will get the nod though as he has had a bit more of a preseason than Firminho.

I like your line-up ArAy, I'd like to see Elliot given the chance and I would never like to see Keita again in a liverpool shirt.

Surely too soon for VVD?!

No Keita on current form ArAy?

Fabinho
Keita

Ox deserves a run to either prove his ability or be sold. But Salah won't be dropped so where does he fit in. I guess he'd have to play in the midfield 3 so I'd go Ox, Fabs and Henderson in midfield. But who on the left of the 3. Ok i give up. That's what Klopps paid for.

Ali
Trent, Konate, Gomez, Tsimikas
Fab, Chambo, Keita
Mo, Bobby, Mané

Subs: Kelleher, VVD, Jota, Elliot, Milly, Taki, Thiago, Jones, Hendo.


12.) 10 Aug 2021
10 Aug 2021 13:29:19
Alisson

TAA Matip VVD Tsimikas

Fabinho Henderson

Firmino

Salah Jota Mane (or maybe Salah Mane Jota)

Would love to see how Firmino plays in an advanced midfield position, and see whether it would work or not.

Winning start needed. Get the points on the board early. It’ll be tight this season that top 4, Liverpool and Man City not addressing key areas in the Transfer Market have let Chelsea and Man Utd close the gap in terms of squad quality. Our first 11 is very strong but I think we’re relying on Luck in terms of injuries, which we don’t have Much of lately.

Phillips who's leaving and Ben"the invisible man"Davies in the squad so? two hopes of that, the four main centrehalves will be in the squad.

Jadon, it's now 3 seasons Keita has hoodwinked me, and everyone else, into thinking his performance could match his skill. It hasn't. And I'm not getting fooled again.
