Klopp will show his support for Sturridge by giving him a key role against Villarreal at Anfield. (Maddock) #LFC

Emre Can has put himself in contention to START vs Villarreal this Thursday. #lfc (Paul Joyce)

Even a 10% fit emre is better than any of our cm players

y did danny play full 90mins in a meaningless game then?

Don't talk shyte G

if Can is in contention to start,this gives me hope.

Overall,I am not feeling very positive about this game.its everything combined i guess.. Can,Origi,Sakho..... on top of that we had a dramatic very lucky 2nd leg against Dortmund.
Dont see that happening again.

however, if the players r fully charged, motivated and really want it, theres nothing stopping us.

We need to keep it tight on Thursday to start with, if we start like we did against Dortmund I can't see us recovering again. Villarreal are very good defensively and very well organised, they are set up to play on the counter attack so we need to be wary of that. We only need a couple of goals across 90mins but the job will become seriously difficult if we concede early on.

I don't see us advancing with no away goals on the board. They will sit deep and soak up the pressure and hit us on the break. We will concede. I don't see us scoring 3-4 goals.

I would have liked to go 4312 if origi had been fit, could have been a big night for origi and firmino. Can't obviously press them very well perhaps as they are not more of a possession football side like man utd were, when we got at them at anfield.

am soo pi$$ed with klopp for not bringing on danny in the 1st game am even considering not watching the game . think klopp has ruined our chace of winning the cup and more importantly playing in the CL
