Just listened to Klopp's pre match Presser, and I don't think Konate will play on Sunday. He said they are waiting for scan results.
08 Mar 2024 16:37:22
Quansah or Gomez?
Gomez hasn’t played a lot at centre half this season but is young Quansah now ahead of him.
I think the team will be Kelleher, Bradley, Vvd, Gomez, Robbo, Endo, Szob, Mac, Salah, Nunez and Diaz.
Elliot and Gakpo the senior players on the bench then.

And if the scan results say he's fine? they were always going to have a scan i would have thought.
08 Mar 2024 17:39:35
I think it will be Quansah with Gomez on the bench as cover for multiple positions.
08 Mar 2024 19:06:10
@OP, I think if Konate was out he would have said so - he tends to tell it like it is based on what he is told by the medical team. Not saying Konate will play just that it was unknown if he’d be fit or not at the time of the press conference.

My issue I thought Robbo was lacking last night and I like the balance that Gomez at LB brings. So Bradley at RB and Gomez at LB for me but that means Quansah has to play CB and that is asking quite a lot of the lad so really hoping Konate is fit.
08 Mar 2024 19:32:26
I think if Konate is injured it will be Gomez at RB and Quansah at CB. You can't play two younguns on the same side of the backline against City.
08 Mar 2024 19:41:22
I'd go Gomez CB myself but I'll back Quansah if that's the choice.
08 Mar 2024 23:04:19
IronDan - I agree with you about Robbo. I thought he had a very poor game against Sparta, but I also think he should play against City on Sunday.
Gomez had played well at left back, but he isn't a natural fit there.
Whoever is selected will have a tough time against them, and I just have a feeling that we will not be good enough to take the points this time.
This is a game we need ALL our top players in I feel. Unfortunately, that won't be the case.
09 Mar 2024 02:32:09
It doesn't matter who we have on, the lads are too focused, bring City on. We'll get the job done, I have no doubts about it. I'd take a draw to be honest but I believe 100% we'll get the win.
09 Mar 2024 07:19:47
I'm sill waiting for the implosion, wheels to fall off and mid table mediocrity.
09 Mar 2024 09:40:06
Robbo has been poor for 2 seasons, yeh he's an energiser bunny. But I believe he gets caught out of position to often. He's doing the Hendo 5 yard passing to the side and backwards in his own half, but when he plays it forward it gets cut out, his crosses really beat the first man anymore and his shooting, well he may as well not bother and stick to making a 5 yard pass.
09 Mar 2024 16:05:23
His 18. assists in the last 2 seasons would suggest otherwise.
09 Mar 2024 18:59:39
Facts are unimportant @TIR. Uninformed opinion is all that counts in this glorious age of modern ‘Social Media’.
09 Mar 2024 20:36:30
He Had 8 assist last season and 1 this season. That's 9 when I went to school. So my opinion is backed by facts. I have also noticed we kept 7 clean sheets in 11 games he missed compared to 2 clean sheets in the 14 he started. If you don't agree that he as dropped off the last 2 seasons fine. You don't have to agree with me.
09 Mar 2024 22:50:58
To be fair, if Robbo was playing on his own the goals conceded could be put down to him. Is it a fact he was the only player we had on the pitch? There’s a bit of a gap between fact and statistic as well fact and opinion.
10 Mar 2024 02:39:51
Itstrue, you're speaking utter nonsense if you can't see that lads quality. Pull your head out of your backside please mate, maybe you'll see a little more clearly.
10 Mar 2024 10:28:34
Spot on, @Salah. @ItsTrue, @IR said Robbo had 18 assists in the last 2 season (21/ 22 and 22/ 23) hence, NOT including this season. Not sure what school you went to or if you ever atteneded math class at all BUT your calculation is a math trainwreck from the off. Thanks for playing, tho.
