We've been close a few times over the last 28 years and blown it, so you can understand the pessimism.

On paper City have the better team/squad and more resources, so they should win the PL and we should not even be really challenging, let alone leading the PL, luckily football is not played on paper smile

City cannot affect us, we do not play them, all we have to do is match/better their results, they cannot get 100 points anymore, we can!



Nice to read some sense. Supporters voicing a little concern doesn't mean they're not 'enjoying being top'. They want to win it, they're desperate to win it and if I'm honest, I think the players are starting to look nervous.

We need a confidence boosting win. We've been scraping through games this year and if City return to their best, the deficit will be cut quickly.

We've got twice the points West Ham have so we should expect a stroll. I don't like late games in winter though. Cold, harsh, wet. Stops us playing our game and turns it into a scrap-fest.

I'd just like some of our defense to be back.
Gomez getting Injured has been a massive blow.
Trent getting injured and clyne going out has been a kick in the d1ck too.

Couldn't give a fu6k about Lovren

0-2 Liverpool. Shaquiri to something special

I know most are expecting James Milner to play at right back, but having seen him struggle with Zaha I think I'd rather have Fabinho there against Anderson, who shares some similar attributes with Zaha. I'd play Milner with Henderson and Wijnaldum in midfield despite that trio not being such a brilliant combination. Then the usual three of Salah, Firmino and Mane in a 433 formation. Finally I'd have a word in Alisson's ear regarding mickying about with the ball in the box! ##!!**

Have being asking myself why Klopp never played Fabinho as RB despite him playing for Brazil there. I think because Klopp wants an attack minded player there as our full backs are more wingers. This is probably also why he allowed Clyne to move on as the latter struggled to pass the half way line against United. But we'll see. I would like Keita given a go as well because if he gets his confidence back, he will be like a new top signing for us, we need to improve our midfield, that could make a big difference if it works. If not, then we will be in the top 4.

I'd rather see Fabinho back in midfield, he made a difference when he came on during the week. Milner is grand as a fill in at RB.

Based on current player availability & form, and Klopp's preferred tactics of safety-first, we are not going to smash West Ham, or anyone for that matter. Strange way to be when you are top of the league in February, but we are plodding instead of motoring. Fluidity and combinations in the middle third and less back-line side-back-side please Herr Klopp.
